Thursday Bullets

- I’ve been reconsidering my commitments. I’ve got that “pulled in too many directions, can’t get anything done” feeling.

- I was offered a position on the Capital Planning Committee this week - great opportunity.

- One of the committee’s I’m on toured the new fire station this week that we just finished and is now up and running. Volunteer work can be a drain but there sure is something sweet about seeing your name on one of those bronze plaques at the entrance of a civic building knowing it will be there for a good half century or longer. (And I’m the only woman!)

- Last night had another committee meeting and feel good about influencing the direction the school design is going. Go energy savings!

- Special treat afterwards - caught up with a fellow committee member over dessert. Loved picking his brain on things from management style to lessons learned (he’s just about retiring as CEO of a family company). Plus nothing better than dessert before dinner!

- Today, at our ice cream social at work I found a coworker who has a brood of chickens. He collects different breeds and will bring in eggs to work - everything from chocolate brown to blue to green! I thought green eggs and ham was made up - who knew. The great thing is you don’t have to refrigerate them.

- Tonight I’m off to a celebration in JP - looking forward to catching up with friends I haven’t seen all summer and beyond!
