OMG! I can not believe I did that! After always volunteering for everything...after offering to help in every activity my children participate in I finally said NO!
The District Chairman for the BSA phoned earlier today to ask if I would be interested in becomming the Assistant District Chairman and I said no. I never say no. Ask me if I want to be on the board of the swim team...of course! Do I want to be district chairman for the Scout-A-Rama....no problem! How about teach at the PowWow.....Sure! Oh wait, we want to do a WEST FAIR and you need my help....I will be there! Do I really want to do all of these things? Of course not. I do them because I love my children and want to be involved. But come on...there is a point where it all gets to be too much!
I guess he just called at the wrong time. My son and I did a first-aid certification last night with Boy Scouts, tonight I was supposed to have a West Fair meeting. Thursday night my dh and son have a PLC meeting. And this weekend we have a two day swim meet! That left Wednesday night and Friday night for normal family time! So..........I SAID NO!!!!!!!!
