Sat: MORE GOOD NEWS!!
I passed out my flayers (thank you, Deb!) all day yesterday at the VA and Tripler Hospital. Gosh... I'm so tired! I also stopped by the American Legion and spoke to Jim about my new group. I showed him the new stacks of flayers too and he was so excited about it! He told me that he will talk to people in the hospital about getting a psychologist to voluntere in participating with my group. He will also talk to people about getting a conference room for me right there in the hospital instead of at the Oahu Veterens Center. AND he said that the American Legion will be setting up a web site for me!! AND he told me that if I can't get a grant through the Mission Continues, he will see about helping me get a STATE GRANT for my group! WHHHOOOHOOO!! So far while I passing out the flayers, I already got one voluntere vet that wants to be part of the administration in my group. He was so excited! And my friend Jen does massage therapy, I told her about the group too, and she wants to help with admin tasks too, as well as being the massage therapist for the group!! YAY!! This is going so very well!! I should find out Monday or Wed if I can hold the meetings in the hospital or not. If I get the green light, I will cancel having it set up at the Oahu Veterans Center, cuz the hospital is like a train station with vets coming in and out. So basically it will be much more convenient for everyone. TODAY... I finished putting the desk and office space together. OUch.. I'm pretty freakin sore! Tired.. out of breath... wewhh! I need a serious massage! My muscles were sore when I woke up today and now they hurt even more... but I want this to get done and ready so I have desk space for coordinating stuff for my group. Monday I will have to (hopefully) stop by Walmart to get those hang file divider thingies so I can start filing stuff. THEN the rest of this week I will be working on my room and all that junk! Ugh, not looking forward to it, but I have to! God bless everyone and thank you so much for your encouragement!
