Video Clip from the ACFW Awards Gala
I was able to obtain a clip of the presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award from the ACFW Awards Gala on September 27th. So I thought I would share it with my readers. My main regret is the microphone being up so high so that it is in my face while I talked. Oh well. My own fault for wearing flats (for comfort) instead of heels (for fashion). Right? Or my own faultfor not lowering it myself. Such is life. Sigh…
There are lots more videos to be seen on my YouTube channel. Check it out.
