A Whole New World
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008November 12, 2008
First day on my first website, trying my first blog,
Exciting as a first kiss, sans kissing any frogs.
Mouth dry, hands shaking,
chest breathless, knees quaking,
the whole worldwide web ahead,
Look forward to your feedback
in the days and months ahead.
Okay, so I haven’t written poetry in a while, and I used ahead twice, but I’m new at this. I hope you find the new website useful; it only took three years and five days to get off the ground. Bryan Dunn of www.WebDunnRight.com did a great job in a short amount of time, and I’m very grateful.
I am headed for Scottsdale, Arizona, on Wednesday, Nov 19, for my first National Speaker’s Association meeting. Four days of meeting, networking, and handing out the new business cards. See my speaker’s page on the website to learn how it all got started!
This Saturday night I’m telling a story for the Richmond Christian single’s chapter of Meetup.com, and I’ll be with my Tell Tale Hearts Sunday, November 16 to listen to rehearsal for our next show November 22, which I will sadly miss due to my Arizona trip. Details about the show are available at www.TellTaleHearts.org
My next speaking engagements are:
December 3 at Woodmont Nursing Home in Fredericksburg, Va, where I will speak on dementia in long term care.
December 9 at St. Mary’s Woods Assisted Living Facility in Richmond, Va, where I will be fair game for a resident’s geriatric question and answer session.
December 16 I will speak to the Advanced Practice Nursing Council at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond about prescribing for the elderly. (Advanced Practice Nursing= Master’s- and PhD-prepared nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, faculty)
And I have a few scheduled in January but that planner is home at the moment.
So thank you for reading, and I’ll keep you posted. And you keep me posted too!
