  1. Only 7? Conference attendance down this year? ;-) And I thank you for the work you do to have a women’s conference – I’m so excited that this is now a part of the NACC!

  2. Yeah, I think the others have finally given up on me. :)

    You’re kind–thanks. Wish I could have seen you at this year’s NACC.

  3. Aw, c’mon. Doesn’t the plaque count? The plaque counts. And it was for being on the executive committee or whatever it’s called and THAT’S how you got roped into, er, asked to do the tea etc. You were everywhere at NACC.

    And doing a great job.

    Thanks from me, without a plaque.

  4. Um, the plaque didn’t survive the move.
