Yesterday we continued the process of emptying boxes and condensing their contents in the basement. Our shredder was busy as well. I distributed and delivered the mums to those who so graciously supported our Bogmeister Barbershop Harmony fund raiser and then went golfing at Treesdale. I only played 9 holes but it was best round to date! There was no one behind me, so I was able to take additional practice shots and really enjoyed the nice weather. Man, what a deal.
During the afternoon we sat on the deck and read our mail. Dee said, "I sure did miss sitting on a deck. This is so nice."
In the evening I went to a class at Butler County Community College. The class was a one evening class called "Getting Paid to Talk - An introduction to Professional Voice Acting." The instructor was John Gollogly, a voice actor and producer. His team does voice over recordings for Discovery, TLC, Woman's Entertainment Network and HGTV channels. He pointed out that only 10% of all "voice acting" jobs are in the "commercial" industry. The rest are in the "narration" industry, which includes everything from audio books, to training videos, to voice messages on telephones and a thousand other areas. It was a great intro class to the field.
When I returned home, Dee had emptied and consolidated another couple of boxes. What a trooper !
