As I type this, all but one of my children are still passed out in their beds. Yes, the time of year has arrived, summer break. Most Mom's panic and worry what they will do with their little ankle biters home all summer. I don't worry because I know exactly what I will do - Maintain insanity!
Last week was busy. Scott worked the Memorial Tournament all week and the kids finished up school on Thursday, we had dress rehearsal, dance recital, gymnastics/meeting and Sunday my niece graduated from The Ohio State University College Of Dentistry as a Dental Hygienist. The dance recital was great and I have been dubbed "Teachers Pet" because I got to go in the back door of the venue and received a beautiful hanging basket. I'm okay with it, it's probably the nicest thing I have been called in a long time and I like flowers!
Saturday morning I took Olivia to gymnastics a little early because as it turns out, I had a board meeting. Okay, I hope you are sitting down. Are you? Alright, I have big news....I am now an official Member-at-Large on the CGA Amateur Athletics Board! Isn't that exciting? I am not really sure what it means other than I get to sit in on board meetings, vote and try to control my A.D.D. tendencies. Oh and collect money for summer ballet. If they knew how broke I was right now, they might reconsider letting me collect cash from anyone! (I feel since I put that out there I must state, I would NEVER steal money from anyone, let alone these hardworking girls). In thinking about the title, "Member-at-Large", I might ask to have my new found title changed to Speaker of the House. Lets be frank, shall we? The reason I am now in cahoots with the board is because I have a big ole mouth. Things have calmed down a bit since the old president stepped down and I am looking forward to the next possible drama.
On Sunday, I got myself and the girls up and ready for Jessica's graduation. I was only a mere five minutes late to my parents. All things considered, I give myself an A for punctuality. Yes, I gave myself an A because when I finally got there my Mom was still dilly dalling around in the house - hence we had to wait on her. I love how that worked out! It's like I was there ten minutes early.
Now, I can't even begin to tell you the joy I felt sitting in an auditorium full of graduating dentists and dental hygienists. One of my friends suggested I do some networking for future deals on dental work. Truly a great idea had I only thought of it beforehand. I could have made up business cards:
The Queen of Insanity
AKA: Dental Nightmare
Please call 555-1212 when
you need a little extra pro-bono
experience
Honestly, I was honored to be there to watch her walk across the stage and graduate from college. You go girl! Go out there and be a dental nazi! I will still love you.
Well this is it for now...I will continue blogging about this week week when I get around to it.
Sincerely,
The Queen of Insanity
