Learning the Ropes

Life as CKI Representative is good though I am still getting used it. Yes, I need to work on refining my letter of introduction. However, I am proud to say that I am ahead of the game when it comes to some things.

Here is a list of what I have done so far.

• Created questions for survey
• Sent e-mails to wonderful CKI members
• Thought of ad-hocs I would like to see the International Board implement for this year
• Established ideal times for office hours and online chats

Here is a list of what else I need to accomplish within the next few days.

• Write articles for my home club's bulletin (aka. Dawg Tales) and for my home district's bulletin (aka. The PNW Post)
• Submit these articles
• Format layout of survey
• Format layout of Sub-region newsletter (aka. Northwestern Connection)

I took time to sit down and learn how to complete the monthly report form with Carrie Johnson, my predecessor and friend. Carrie took time to go over what goes on these forms. She also gave me some input on the forms in general. Filling out a report takes time - probably about an hour.

Next month, it will be my turn to fill one out and submit it. I just have to make sure that I get done on the 20th.

I feel like everything needs to get done within 24 hours. Of course, I realize that I need to take things one at a time.
