CONGRATULATIONS! [Lswtalk] Author Dinner

[Debbie Johnson-Houston]

Hi Everyone, 
Congratulations on another successful author dinner. Sounds like it was a fun festive evening. 
I hope that all of you are well. I had my second surgery on September 29th. Both surgeries went well.  I'm currently working through the challenges and rewards of physical therapy. I'm still not driving yet. 
I'm looking forward to returning to work and the fellowship of my colleagues. 
Take care, Debbie

Many thanks for the cooperative effort in planning a wonderful evening. Rhonda Rich was incredibly real, funny & sincere!  The guests loved her. Mary Frances, thanks for an excellent job as Mistress of Ceremonies! Pamela, the prayer before the  meal was lovely.  (Hope you are feeling better!) Jessica, as always,  we had no problems with registrations or paying Pat’s & Rhonda.  Everything was organized to a “T”! Howard, (man…did he ever enjoy Rhonda…..AND she enjoyed him!)  Excellent introduction for our guest speaker! Amanda Taylor was so humbled and thrilled to be honored with the Lynda Carlberg Award.  She, like Howard, adored Linda & her values , sense of professionalism and her genuine compassion for people. The food was good….I received no complaints. My only concern was the waitresses……they were 3 new young ladies.  I resented the fact that they walked in front of Rhonda as she was presenting.   I found that distasteful.  Yet, Southern woman that she is….Rhoda would just slide to the next side of the podium and work the crowd from there. Any other ideas about the evening…………………………….I thought the timing of everything was outstanding! Thanks to all for being present.   Linda
