NCPD & NCOD

After my pretzel lunch (not as good as my husband's homemade pretzels, of course), I avoided the slot machines and made my way to my next workshop. Sadly, I was THE ONLY PERSON for whom these three wonderful ladies presented their workshop. What does THAT SAY about the state of things, my brothers and sisters in Christ?

My thanks to: Susan Perrault (NCPD Board Member), Janice Benton (Executive Director of NCPD), and Mary O'Meara (Executive Director of the Archdiocese of Washington's Special Needs Ministries).

My greatly abbreviated notes. I had NO ADD problems in this one, btw, but there is simply too much to post here...
