Subject: Another Victory!!
Journal 12/12/08

Well, I wrote to report victory tonight. I want the whole world to
know that we have successfully moved into our apartment.! And, to me,
the most important thing is, I took the bus to and from work today and
yesterday!!!

I am so excited about this. Being born blind, you learn these basic
skills in middle school. But because I lived in Michigan and was
exposed to the ubus in the early days of my life during those
amazingly cold winters, I wanted nothing to do with bus riding. I
wanted nothing to do with orientation and mobility period.

But relationships are awesome. They can truly motivate you to go
higher and reach farther in your life. My two friens--and yes they are
really friends--J.L. And R.F. Have encouraged me to go farther than I
ever thought of going in my mO&M skills. These are two women who are
visually empaired, but they go everywher. And I mean EVERYWHERE! They
are really amazing.

I just wanted to report these things this evening and thank all those
who read my blog. No, I'm not an ongoing blogger. But I hope that the
things I list will be both inspiring and encouraging to all who read!
Thanks for stepping into my world with me and hanging out for a while.
Please keep the comments coming, as they inspire me greatly!!!
