I am sitting at the back of the room at Novant orientation. I am looking at all 88 new faces joining our company, and they all look eager, and a little anxious. That is how I feel about this new type of communication...blogging.
So why am I at the back? Well, I am one of the educators responsible for the orientation this morning. I have been doing this every month for several years, so no more anxiety for this.
I can only imagine that I will get comfortable writing blogs, too!
About Me
- Linda Kinney
- I was born into the Mennonite culture, and my father was an itinerant preacher. My mother became a total invalid from M.S.,but I was fortunate to obtain a scholarship and go to Tabor College. I traveled to Germany for my junior year, and this changed my life direction forever. During an adventuresome trip through the Balkans, I met and subsequently married a Greek national. I lived in the small town of Itea for the greater part of 10 years. The love of my life, Niki Joy, was born in 1973. (She and her husband, Rick, have now have given me two wonderful grandchildren, Jack and Olivia). I left Greece in 1976, went back to school for my R.N. I am now a corporate educator in Charlotte, NC. In 1993 I married again, and Jerry and I have lived in Illinois, Arizona, Maine and NC. We love hiking, especially the AT. We also enjoy remodeling houses, and our current address is no exception! (Jerry is now retired, after a career in health care administration). When I retire we plan to divide our time among our home here in NC, our vacation home in Maine, and wherever else we can afford to travel, especially to see our kids and grandkids!

Welcome to Cyberspace! You can think of this blogging thingey as a new-fangled way for a bunch of family members to have a bunch of simultaneous and always-updated "circular letters" like the extended Harms and Harder families used to do with paper and U.S. Mail. :-)
