Sandra! You'll be great. I listened to that tape you sent, "To Question or
Not to Question" and it was wonderful. Talk like that, and you'll get them
really thinking.

You know, they don't have to like you. It's ok if they don't, really. I'm
sure they have enough tact to not run you out of town. And if they don't
like you, that dislike may irritate them into thinking about you and what
you said. Over time, that may do more to change their children's lives for
the better than any speaker they hear there and agree with.

Sand in the oyster makes a pearl. Water doesn't irritate the oyster at all,
but just washes through.

Have a GOOD time. (Stay warm!)

Thanks.
I can't do that one without Richard!
But I'll listen to it myself, maybe on the way, and see what I can work into
the talk about having confidence in oneself.

Good idea.

I hope. <g>

I've already arranged for an outside ride to the airport, though (just in
case <g>).

I've considered that I might not be so well received, but it's not the sort
of conference where they have the same speakers over, so whether the love me
or not, this is a one-shot and that's okay. I'll just do my best.

Kids aren't allowed at the conference. *sigh*
Nursing babies only.
Probably I'm glad. I'm afraid I'd be witnessing more "disciplining" than I
can stomach anymore.

Oh. TALK like THAT.
I need to read better. I'm drinking tea and waking up. Soon I might be
smart.
It doesn't feel like it today, though. It's overcast and my hands feel
sleepy.
