Hi Everyone,

It's nice to be on "the other side". I've been on for a weeks but haven't posted yet. I've been enjoying reading your posts while getting situated!

Quick question. How many Cheffers are going to NDA on Friday? I'll be there, and it would be great to meet some of you in person!

Thanks,
Diane V.

Thanks everyone. I don't know how to do that little "thank you" that you all do. I have to sit down and figure it out one of these days, so for now, a big fat thanks to all of you!

I'm looking forward to Friday, although it will be in the middle of two very stressful weeks. I work a full-time job with 50% travel, so I'm in New Orleans until Thursday night (I get back at 11:30 pm), leave Friday morning for NDA, come back Saturday night, have back to back shows on Sunday, and fly out to Maryland on Monday for 4 days. I should probably take some pics of myself to leave the kids!

Can't wait to meet a few of you!

ETA: what I mean is how many directors are at each event? Is this a group of 100, 1000?

there were about 60 who attended in August.
 
Wow, that's all? I just imagined there would be a ton! I think this one will be packed because it is the last one of the year though.

It doesn't have to be fabulous. And, it's not the actual 'thing' that is important - it's what the story tells.....I'm sure it's perfect!

Don't forget to read your Leadership Handbook - there's some GREAT stuff in there! :D
