It’s been a challenging week for me, with work issues heating up, two city board retreats I’m having to plan, yesterday evening’s Parks board meeting, early release day from school for the kids, and helping coach the kids’ basketball teams.
When I was feeling down yesterday, I was cheered for a bit by N.C. State’s success against Duke during their visit to Cameron Indoor Stadium but they couldn’t protect their 20 point lead in the second half and wound up losing by 5. I went to bed anxious.
Work went better for me today, the kids kept themselves busy during Early Release, and I got to help coach Hallie’s basketball team tonight. Unfortunately, our team lost by two points in a tough-fought game. Rather than hang our heads, though, we went out for a very fun dinner with our friends Joe and Toddi.
Tomorrow morning I spend four hours facilitating the RCAC retreat. Then less than half an hour later, I’m off to Chavis Park for the carousel building groundbreaking. Then, as soon as that’s done, I’m off to Travis’s basketball game. Once that’s done, I fly solo with the kids again while Kelly goes to a PTA planning meeting.
Good grief, life is busy lately.
