May 27, 2009



Today In History: Ms. Mae Lean Jones lived four years of her remaining life with breast cancer before she got screened. She lived another four years knowing she had this deadly disease. That was nine years ago from this date. If, she was alive today she would be 57 years old with a birthday on the 21st of June. She left behind two wonderful children, and I was one of them. I love you, Momma!

Go get screened! Preventive care can help save lives!

This is the eleventh day of my research assistant role of the Youth Gardening Project. Today's location was at the Tuskegee University Chambliss Building(old business bldg). Today was another arts and crafts day. All the research assistants--including myself--had the opportunity to "Build-a-Bear," social work style. This activity we were practicing today was to help us to demonstrate to the children how they can create their own build-a-bear. Once I completed that particular task, I visited a few website Professor McArthur emailed us on how to make macrames. I practiced four different knots: square knot/square knot button, Half Knot Sennit, Josephine Knot, and the Alternating Double Half Hitch Knots.
