An Expression of Appreciation for the Women of the Inglenook Community
by Karnecia Williams, Inglenook Branch Library
Turn screaming alarm clock off. Check. Roll out of bed and crawl to the bathroom and take care of daily personal hygiene. Check. Make sure lunches are fixed, clothes are ironed, children’s homework is completed, gas is in the car, etc. Check. Cook breakfast. Check. Turn into a drill sergeant to get children out of bed and ready for school. Check. Load groggy, slow moving children and all of their things in the car and manage not to leave anything. Check. Fight unrelenting school traffic to get kids to school. Check. Now, time to go to work!
More and more households are being led by women. In addition to filling the traditional roles, women are tasked with providing for their households. Many complete these tasks without assistance, leaving them exhausted and depleted. With that in mind, the Inglenook Branch Library created a program titled An Expression of Appreciation for the Women in the Inglenook community to provide women with the fuel, encouragement, and fortitude that they need to improve the quality of their lives and successfully move forward in their journeys. The program also celebrates and honors them for their contribution to the Inglenook Community. Additionally, speakers are invited to discuss effective ways to manage issues such as self-esteem, nutrition, money, and other prominent issues that affect women daily.
The next Expression of Appreciation program will be held on Friday, September 15, at 6:30 p.m. The seating is limited and if you are a woman and live or work in the Inglenook Community and are interested, please contact the Inglenook Library to register.
