Thank you, Kathie, for lining this up for us.
I apologize to everyone for not paying enough attention to the budget figures
when we were planning for New Orleans. I did not realize until I looked at the
Excel sheet Stephen sent out that my travel mileage reimbursement was about
twice what was budgeted for travel.
When Stephen called me to talk about the allocation of funds, I told him that I
felt my participation, especially in the planning, but also because I was not
in New Orleans until Friday night, was not as much as I had wanted or hoped it
would be. Therefore, I felt that he had done the lion's share of the work and
should get a larger fee. I did ask that the fact I took a day off from my paid
work to be there be recognized with a fee of $100.
That is how he presented it, but now I think it would be better to forego the
fee amount and apply it to the travel to make us come in closer to the budget
and to be more equitable in how the money is distributed.
I am looking forward to getting greater clarity about the Atlanta events in
June. Many thanks. ; } Eleanor B
