THOUGHT FOR THE MONTH
“You're
so much more than good enough! At some point everyone
fears they'll fall short of someone's expectations--but you'll exceed
them! Everyone doubts whether they have what it takes--but you do!
Everyone worries that they won't measure up. But, you always do--just
by being you.“
Hi Painters,
NOTICE
YO MEMBERS!!! On the Thought of the Month note, I would like to ask
each and every one of our members to volunteer to teach a class or
run for an office in our Chapter this year. We need each and everyone
to participate in order to keep our Chapter strong and growing.
Thanks and we'll look forward to hearing from all of you during the
coming year.
Please
be sure and check out our blog for the projects we have scheduled so
far for this year.
Don't
forget to sign up for the Christmas Party which will be at Ruby River
on Saturday, December 13th
at 1:00 p.m. We need to know what you would like to eat, etc. Please
let one of the Board members know or email me
(gloriageldridge@yahoo.com).
We'll look forward to seeing you there.
Remember,
we would like to hear from all of you regarding what you'd be
interested in painting this year, what class you'd like to teach and
what office you would like to run for in next years elections. Heads
up ladies, “WE NEED YOU”.
God Bless.
Gloria
