Minerva's circle anniversary

I haven't had a minute to sit this week and tell you about our community group first anniversary. We had all the excitement of the anticipation of this important event all through the previous week. Some of us found a few minutes here and there to make something special for the raffle, like the stuffie below that I made and Luca happened to win, because it is always nice to get some little unexpected prize, and I am glad that most people that came to our meeting last Sunday did get something and who knows, maybe they will be excited about it and ready to come to our meetings and try. I even had an interview in the newspaper and it came out on Tuesday in the campus edition of the local paper. Of course they got some information wrong, as they always do, but important message went through: to reach others and encourage them to join us, the more the merrier, we think.

No he tenido ni un minuto de sentarme y de contaros sobre el primer aniversario de nuestro grupo de nuestra comunidad. Estabamos emocionadas por la anticipacion al evento todas la semana anterior. Algunas de nosotras encontramos un momento para hacer algo especial para la rifa, como el muNeco de abajo que hice y Luca gano, porque siempre es agradable recibir pequeNos premios inesperados, y me alegro de que la mayoria de la gente que vino a nuestra reunion el Domingo pasado consiguiera algo y quien sabe, quizas se animaran y empezaran a venir a nuestras reuniones y probar. Incluso me hicieron una entrevista en el periodico y salio el martes en la seccion del campus del periodico local. Claro esta, pusieron algunos datos equivocados, como siempre, pero lo importante es que el mensaje salio: llegar a otros y animarles a que vengan, cuantos mas mejor, pensamos.



Claudia described it all very well and with few words in her blog.

Claudia lo describio todo muy bien y con pocas palabras en su blog.

I hope to be around to celebrate many more and carry our friendship, inspiration, support, and skills for a long long time.

Espero estar por aqui para celebrar muchos mas y llevar adelante la amistad, inspiracion, apoyo y habilidades durante mucho mucho tiempo.
