I was extremely proud of our accomplishments during the week of June 10th. On Wednesday Me, Amy and Rhonda (aka the team) presented our survey and community assistance ideas to the downriver minister’s alliance.

To say that this past week has been difficult would be an understatement. My project in itself isn’t that difficult of a concept; I have to conduct a survey to investigate the financial burdens of sustainable farming. But understanding what exactly I need to accomplish this goal has been ridiculously hard for me! I find

This past week got even busier with it being the last week half of the workplace would be here which involved getting a ton of work done as well as restructuring everyone’s work schedule. I kept working at the parks and recreation literature review, I found a ton of good resources and also gaps in

This week has been very busy for me. I am trying to invite vendors to participate in our annual health fair next month. I can’t remember if I explained what this was or not, but basically a health assessment was done in 2009 just sort of asking and surveying the major health issues in each
Every day passes by really fast around here. I work, come back, go to the gym, sometimes hang out for an hour or two around detroit and then the night is over. It’s not a bad thing but I do feel like two weeks went by very quickly and there’s not as much time as

This week was a very cool week. It was high stress in the office because the brochure for all our summer events was scheduled to be printed today and one of the main headliners (Bob Marley’s band, the Wailers) wasn’t confirmed until about 4pm yesterday. But now that that is sorted out, everyone’s excited for
