1 YEAR AT MY JOB.... VERY REWARDING


ON FRIDAYS WE HAVE GAME DAY! WE SPLIT EVERYONE UP IN 3 GROUPS AND THEY PLAY BINGO AND CONNECT 4 AND BOARD GAMES. THEY LOOK FORWARD TO THEIR TIME AT HE BINGO TABLE FOR THE PRIZES ARE THE BEST!





















THIS IS KARI AND KELLI MY 2 MAIN CLIENTS THAT MAKE THESE WONDERFUL QUILTS TO SELL. MOST OF THE QUILTS ARE PIECED TOGETHER.

NOW IT'S BEEN A YEAR SENSE I STARTED HERE AND WASN'T SO SURE ABOUT DOING VOCATIONAL WITH CLIENTS WITH DISABILITIES, I HAVE LEARNED THERE IS SO MANY POSSIBILITIES OUT THERE FOR THEM. I HAVE COME UP WITH NEW JOBS, GOT US IN THE FARMERS MARKET TO SELL OUR PRODUCTS, AND NEXT WE WILL HAVE OUR FIRST DANCE AT THE CENTER INVITING COMMUNITY PEOPLE TO COME. IT'[S FUNNY BECAUSE MY FIRST DAY ON THE JOB WAS THEIR HALLOWEEN PARTY DAY AND WERE NOW GETTING READY TO DO A HALLOWEEN DANCE.
I LOVE MY JOB EVEN THO IT'S TRYING AT TIMES. IT'S SO REWARDING WHEN CLIENTS GREET YOU IN THE MORNING AND SAY BY BEFORE THEY LEAVE. WHEN YOUR NOT AT WORK THEY WORRY.
I DO HAVE TO SAY IF YOU WANT A QUILT EVER MADE OR ARE THINKING OF XMAS GIFTS THINK OF MAYBE HAVING THEM MAKE IT FOR U! IF YOU HAVE CERTAIN COLORS OR CHARACTERS OR ANYTHING THEY CAN MAKE IT. I CAN SEND YOU A COPY OF PICTURES OF THINGS THEY HAVE MADE, JUST LET ME KNOW..... ALL PROCEEDS GO BACK TO PROVIDING THEM WITH MORE JOB OPPORTUNITIES. IT DOES NOT GO TO THE COMPANY.

  1. Wow! Mom said your job was so great and that you were so good at it. I got a rag rug from her that your clients made. We are thinking of you and the death of your friend. We hope all goes well Saturday.
