(Friend, daughter, friend)Friday night was the 8th grade dance at daughter's school. She and her friends were so excited.
A couple came over before the dance for photos.
Sounded like a great time was had by all!
Saturday morning the husband and I headed up to the lake house for an HOA meeting. Since I was president I had to be there. But, after serving as President for two years, I am DONE! I told husband that I felt like a huge weight had been lifted. He said he never realized it bothered me.
Now I just have to get through this week and I will be totally free from some major obligations... secretary of the women's club in the neighborhood, and chairman of the hospitality committee at daughter's school. I was telling a friend about it and she said not to get excited, I would be volunteering for something else in no time! She knows me too well! But, I think I might just enjoy my summer before I get myself into something else!
You will feel relieved...I remember being so overloaded with commitments, I was always breathless with stress. Two friends gave me things that said "Stop me before I volunteer again"....and I took it to heart! If I don't love doing it, I don't.
ReplyDeleteI can so relate!!!! Although I have traded my school volunteer duties for the upcoming year for Symphony Guild ones. It never ends, does it?
ReplyDeleteBTW, the girls look precious (and so wonderfully, beautifully age appropriate!)
What are you going to do with all of your free time?
