Long day...

I must admit I just recently woke up from a nice nap.   I really didn't do much today.  :-)
OK...really, I think a lot of activity was going on.  I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!!
After a very nice dinner last evening hosted by the Hearing Research Foundation, I couldn't sleep too much because I was so excited about today.  And of course, just like the first day of school, I was up early and eagerly was finished getting ready and just waiting.  And waiting...and waiting.  So finally, I couldn't take it anymore, and I didn't want to get black cat hair on my WHITE pants, I headed to the hotel for 7:00 VDG training.  I didn't mind.  I'm an early person (you got me...when I need to be an early person).  So VDG training from 7:00 - 9:00ish.  It was a combined 1st and 2nd VDG training and between Friday evening and training this morning, I met so many wonderful Lions.  Because isn't that what we all are first...Lions?  It's not about a title.  It's about 1.35 million people working toward the same thing.  When it all comes down to it, that is what we are Lions for.
It was refreshing to know that many of my fellow 1st VDG's are having the same concerns as I am for our districts.  Membership is always at the forefront.  But I believe that MD14 can come together and turn this deficit into a positive.  JUST ASK!!!
So, since I am the new kid on the block, I'm hoping that everyone will be patient with me.  I will do my best to remember everyone's name (which I stink at!!!)  I will try to get them right before the end of my Governorship.  LOL!!!
Thank you to 1VDG Ken Snyder from 14-P for being the first to find me on FB.  I was very pleasantly surprised.
My new motto to live by:  Alone we can do so little.  Together we can do so much.  Thank you for being an inspiration, Helen Keller.  And thank you PCC Dan for sharing that quote with us during training today.
Since I took a nap and watched the end of the Yankees-Red Sox game, I may be up all night.  Might as well "work".  Good night everyone!!!
