And… BOOOOOO – hApPy haLLoWeeN!!!!!
In the spirit of the Sharing and Caring Team and the message of IAWL, making a difference in someone else’s life and giving is a way to touch them forever. Believe or not, on FaceBook, I ran across this quote from Zig Zigler, “You never know when a moment and a few sincere words can have an impact on life.” He’s right…. In a moment, a good deal can transpire. Those words in that moment we speak can encourage, reassure, support, praise, educate, and more. When we speak those words in that moment, we may not be aware of the impact it has to the other person. Just imagine the impact of the good deeds we do in ESA that follows the words in that moment! WOW….
Next week is the November State Council Board Meeting Weekend with the Annual Arts and Crafts Fair! I want to remind you of some of the information you need to know to attend and have a great time!

There just has to be more than a handful of Holiday Sweaters in the closets of ESA’ers! Also, if you are planning to participate, you will be wearing the sweater during the Craft Fair and please be sure to bring it to the Sunday meeting.

To answer last week’s IAWL Trivia Question… Here is the question – There is one major flub or goof by the film editor. Do you know what the error was? It happened when George was talking to Harry about the coming home festivities Bedford Falls was planning when Harry arrived home from visiting President Truman at the White House. Here’s the answer…. A large Christmas Wreath! The wreath that George has hooked over his arm as passes out the newspapers hailing Harry’s Congressional Medal of Honor is very prominently tossed onto a desk just before George takes the phone call. But in the next cut, the wreath is still hanging on George’s arm…. Ahhhh continuity and film editors!
Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday to the following sisters (and brothers) for the coming week!
