Jobs are on the horizion

Wow, I just got a call to present some scaries stories on Oct. 28, 2010 at one of the nursing homes that I visited on Monday.  God is so wonderful!  I have a job interview for Monday and my daughter takes part of her state exam for her nursing aide certification on Monday.  What a great day!

I recieved an email from a storyteller in Australia.  How cool to hear from someone on the other side of the world.  My goal is to reach there within the next year, Lord willing.

It Was a Good Day

Razzle Dazzle Family Literacy Day 2008

Monday morning started off cool and chrisp.  I took my advertisment packets to seven location (two schools, four nursing homes and one day care).  I was hired on the spot at one nursing home to tell stories once a month starting in November, Yea!  One school librarian wants me for Black History Month and another nursing home activity directors is interested.  All in all it was a blessed day, thank the Lord.

A Fun Storytime for Juneteenth 2009

We had a grand old time at Ridglea Branch Library.

Time to Begin

Today is the day to look for places to present my stories. I've waited long enough for the grief to lift. My sister, Faye, would not let me linger in sadness for such a long time.

I told my Birthday Story for our Ladies' Bible Class Luncheon. The ladies enjoyed it and were inspired to reach out to others. I pray that God will lead me in the right direction for more presentations.

The past two weeks are still a blur. My sister lost her battle with kidney failure on June 2, 2010. Family and friends keep telling me that she is free of pain and in a better place. Their loving statements don't ease my pain. I miss my sister so much. I use to beg God to help ease her pain and now I beg Him to get me through my pain. One Day At A Time, Jacqui.

Busy Week

Time passes so quickly. So much can happen in one week, my sister was admitted to the hospital in ICU on Monday. It was touch and go for most of the week. Thank the Lord, she is improving. My Cinco De Mayo craft program was a big hit on Wed., Friday I had two programs and today our Mother's Day Card Make and Take had a super turnout. The kids created beautiful cards. I'm glad that this week has ended on an up beat. God Bless, Jacqui.

A story and Lunch

Last Thursday I told stories to a group of kindergartners while they ate their sack lunches. One little boy came up afterwards all excited and said, "I liked the old lady that ate the fly." His eyes were almost as big as his smile.
