Yesterday I spent time with an individual on how to make a better presentation on a job interview. My first assignment is to construct a different cover letter and resume. I would think I know how to do both since I have written a number of each. Now I have to make a resume that tells someone my age without putting the number down. I am to use words to let future employers know I attended college and graduated from one. As I am writing this post I am thinking of what adjectives to use to say I worked in a factory on an assembly line and how I have taught Sunday School and directed Vacation Bible School without saying I worked in a factory or taught the Bible to children.
Here in Indiana it is getting down to the end of girls and boys basketball. Last night Hubby and I attended a girls game in which they won both games. Tonight we are going to attend a boys game with a rival county school. I am saving my voice so I can yell tonight. The game will either be a barn burner or one team will will by a good margin. This Sunday the Girls Sectional pairing are drawn so it it getting exciting on who our girls will play.
Tomorrow I am attending a seminar on how to council at risk adults. I am excited about this. I think God is directing me in a direction of a Lay ministry so I can continue to encourage those who have all kinds of questions.

Good Afternoon Joyce,
I haven't fixed a resume in years. I do remember learning how to do them in High School and then Vocational School. Most of the time I had just filled out applications where I went to work at. I haven't been updated on Today's Resumes. I have no clue how they are done, but I'm sure it is alot different from when I learned to do them. Sounds like you have a good game to go to tonight. Our oldest daughter's game last Friday night in their tournament was one of those barn burners. It was too close for comfort. I do hope your team wins tho. I do hope that you have found your calling in the Lay Ministry. That would be so great and I know you would be so very good at it as well. Our youngest daughter has to cheerlead at the boys pee-wee basketball game in the morning. The boys start later than the girls, so their season is still going on. I think the boys end sometime next month. Then we have softball to start on. Our oldest daughter will be playing again this year, but I'm not sure if our youngest daughter will or not. Take care my friend and have a great day. May God Bless You and Yours.
Love & Hugs,
Karen H.
P.S. Since I had so much to post about today, I will post about all of my Awards on Monday. "THANK YOU" again for all of those Awards. You are such a sweetheart.
Hi Joyce, you and I have something in common. We both love basketball. One of my grandsons has played for about three years now. This year both grandsons are playing basketball.
Indiana basketball.....great stuff!
Joyce,,, when you use the phrase Lay Ministry...... is that just ministry out of your local church? I have heard that many times before but never really understood... I have been teacher preacher.... mentor..... leader.... all within the confines of a church...... wonder if that is Lay ministry. Just pondering what God has called you too.......how exciting is that!!!
Hi Joyce,
As a Human Resource Manager with more than 30 years experience reading resumes (and writing a few myself), I would love to help you on your project. One piece of advice, a good cover letter will get the HR person's attention and will prompt a complete reading of your resume. If you would like my help, let me know what type of job you are applying for and I will be happy to give some suggestions to jaz up that resume. Blessings, Cricket
Hi Joyce...I see Cricket has offered to help you with your cover letter. Good for you!!! She is very good. She also graduated college later in life, Suma Cum Laude. I love to ring her bell! Have a tremendous day and good luck with your resume.
Absolutely wonderful! I hope it all turns out well for you.
Come on over when you can. I've tagged you for a meme!

You don't have to play if you don't want to.
Hope you're having a great weekend.
