Dear ToastMasters, I do see that this request is directed to me however I need to decline. It's made me realize the following: Just after making this decision to join ToastMasters, an amazing amount of things have occurred in my life, so I think that I joined at the wrong time of my life. I simply cannot take on one more thing right now. As Joker-Timer my first time - at the end of an extraordinarily difficult day - I realized how I hit a 'brain wall' when I had a block trying to count votes could not believe it, but it just shows that I am under an extraordinary amount of stress. I'm sorry but I don't feel I can be the full out team player that I need to be until I get at least one of the major things taken care of. Since I need to be more and do more, than I can right now, I think it best if I step out for a time. I don't want to let anyone there down and not carry my part. I hope you will accept me back when I feel I can be a full team member. You are a wonderful group of people and I do have so much to learn through the ToastMasters training. I hope to be seeing you in the near future! (so my apologies I will not be there tomorrow) Sincerely, Carol Keener From: Bill Farrand <whfarrand@xxxxxxx> Reply-To: <whfarrand@xxxxxxx> Date: Wednesday, March 26, 2014 8:04 AM To: "frtm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <frtm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: FRTM - March 27 meeting, March 26 update Hi All, Our meeting is shaping up. However, I still haven't heard back from a few of you and some people have changed roles opening up roles for positions such as Timer/Joker and Evaluator. So if someone wants to trade on up from a role such as Greeter or Quizmaster to one of the essential roles, let me know. Thanks all!
