This past weekend was a busy one. Saturday we went down to Boston to watch B's cross country team run. He was not running, but we still wanted to support the team. We were able to talk with him for a few minutes and he seems to be doing well. Following the meet, D and I drove to Castle Island in South Boston and went for a walk around Pleasure Bay. Sunday we had friends over for brunch then closed up our pool. I spent a lot of time cleaning up the garage and yard and I am mightily pleased with the results.
Much to my surprise, my friend, the CO from the Boston cadet unit was elected Regimental CO commanding approximately 15 units. He had asked me to be his regimental training officer, if he was elected, and I had indicated that I would consider it, never thinking that he would actually win. Now I need to decide if I really want to take this challenge on. I may accept the position on a temporary basis with a one year term. This way I would not feel badly about passing the responsibility to someone else in the future.

Oh, I think you should totally take it! Even if it seems you have too much on your plate. I know you wanted to spend some time rebuilding your finances and spending more time with your wife, but I think sometimes when we are extremely busy, that is when we are forced to manage our time better. I don't know - do you think you work better under more pressure?
I do work better under pressure... But when you are volunteering to help kids, I detest the obnoxious adults that think they know better but contribute nothing but criticism. Guess I just need a thicker skin :-)
