I haven’t been this tired since my days of teaching. I think it was nerves, since I haven’t spoken before any kind of group in five years. Tomorrow, I’ll blog about the Hugh O’Brien Youth Leadership Seminar at which I was on a panel about blogging.
Before we called it a day, I got a t-shirt, a cool little notebook w/pen, hugs, and this:
Kalilily Time
Just an old lady talking to herself
Yay! Hip-hip-hooray! You did it!
Might this be the start of a potential circuit? Do you know how much these kids need to hear your voice? You are so kind and honest, thoughtful and compassionate about words. You could be a mighty force if unleashed upon the world in a position of Visiting Speaker.
Just think of all the pens and notebooks you could collect on a tour! Not to mention all the hugs…
