Dec 18 Firstborn's 40th

Glad to report a couple of follow ups.
Nice to have a holiday -- this is a special one (vs. Pres. Day, etc)
Got some encouraging words today from a long time co-worker via Bamboo Brigade and Master Mind Group.
What a family we have here in TWCCTW !!!!!!!

Merry Christmas to all

Dec 17

Not well -- fall must have done more damage than first thought.

Dec.15/16

Took a tumble Sat. nite after a Gaither concert and wasn't well enough to even remember to do this yesterday or last night.
Called in only to check out. Found our call time was moved anyway. Too late for an early rising old man (feeling older by the minute).
Wish you all well.

Dec.12

Blessings upon you all !!

Expect my weekend will aid in catch-up on the contacts.

Also more on the follow-up calls (so far follow-up has been in person, face to face).

Got some additional guidance from Ginny -- glad for organizational papers and presentation ideas.

Dec.11

One more contact and two followups with MPM and WCM comparisons

Dec. 10

Double calls last night

and Jacki inquiring about the non-profit (foundation) mall

Yesterday was so bad at work - not enough income (business) to pay one shift let alone two.

Today not a lot better

Did get one new contact
and
one follow-up

Call again tonight

Dec.9 b

Missed mention of two follow-ups

Dec 9

blizzard

no contacts - everybody hibernated

Dec. 8

Well, my five were a "gift" today.

I think we are living in blizzard country.

Saturday when no sane person ventured out (cars were sliding backward on our hill), I drove a mission of necessity 3 and 1/2 hours one way. (Return Sunday was some better)

Now today, tonight and until early Wednesday we are told that we should expect 14 inches of blowing and drifting snow. Everyone will hibernate.

So... I am thankful that enough new contacts came my way today.

Also had followup with a serious prospect.

and encouraging interest from a young couple who gave their information.

I'm hoping to stay awake for tonight's two phone calls: WCRBC at 7 and Ginny at 8.
My day starts at or before 2 am and today I was at work at 3 am. (I say that only to explain to those who might not otherwise know that my schedule accounts for severe drowsiness in the evening (with my usual bedtime at 8 or shortly thereafter).

Still glad to be on every call I can and will aim at both again this evening.

Dec.5

A glorious day.
When I thought my well was dry for contacts,
the Lord sent 6 new ones (five had good emails)

Printed up some more business cards (especially for travels the next two days)
ended up using some today.

I like our banner theme of Together We Can Change The World.

Also got our sponsorship materials for Flora ...and... a set about a boy for a man who comes to the station semi-regularly.

Flora's education will be a big reason to push hard(er) through the days of this Boot Camp.

Dec.4

Colder than what???

Two days and getting worse.

Snow and cold.

Haven't dug out or started the van.

Hardly anyone moving about via the station either. = Fewer contacts today. Barely enough.

Two follow ups said they hadn't looked at their email in days. No help there. How does one encourage action without ticking them off???

Tonight, tomorrow night and then two days of travel. Expecting to gather a couple on the North and South journeys.

Dec. 3

Actually got to talk to two on followup today.
No sign up yet but both seem close to saying yes and I've encouraged World Changer with SBIY and $300 gas rebate.

Also got new contacts.

Then forgot how to get in to here and wasted time sorting through re-entry. Now it is all written down where it shouldn't get lost.

And then there's the five inches of new snow to deal with. Two grown daughters needing attention. Christmas coming and did I mention the frustration over time. The Beattles suggested 8 days a week and maybe we could do those in 36 hour days....

On with the show --- and some sign-ups.

Dec.,2

December 2, Tuesday, and again I am thankful for having 5 or more give me their information.

What a busy day!!!!

Double phone call tonight -- both good, both important.

December 1

God is good.
I worried about being in the same location and still finding another five folks for today.
I think I came up with 7 again.

The encouraging thing is that 2 or 3 seemed to have a work or physical situation that suggested they would be seriously interested and maybe even sign up.

Today started with temps in the low 20s and 20-30 mph wind with about 3 inches of fresh snow that drifted two feet deep next to my van.
There was a lot less traffic at work so I was concerned that there would be new people for sign up contacts.

I give thanks (even when Thanksgiving Day is past) for every positive connection.
