A Bit Melancholy

Some days are just, "one of those days!"  I think this was one for me.  It seems that things just went wacky right from the start.  Ever have a day like that? 

Today is a busy time in the world of youth development - awards, re-enrollment, entries to return to youth from the State Fair, officer elections, upcoming achievement celebrations, new club leaders, reporting and a few other odds and ends that always come up this time of year.  I always say every year -- I can do this -- I will survive!!  Then I get a day when, I think, "Oh my, whatever have I gotten myself into?"

Today I have also been thinking about my Secretary.  Well, she is not my Secretary anymore, because she retired in January.  Today, though, I have really been missing her.  She was my right hand girl, I tell ya.  She helped me battle the end-of-the-year and the beginning-of-the-year stuff, because it all came at us at the same time.  I definitely feel the void, and wish we could hire another person, but we can't.  So, I just want to say - that I miss her - that JB!  And, I do hope she is enjoying all the fabulous fun that retirement can offer!
