What a day

now I remember why I don't ready everyone's posts, either here in blogland or on facebook. I really do have a hard time with other people's problems.
You're having a hard day? I feel your pain and wish there was some way I can help
You're mad at me for what I said or did? I want nothing more then to fix it and make you love me again
You're hurting and crying and scared? I want to jump in my car or on a plane and hold you till you feel better
But I can't. I can't do any of those things, I'm stuck here taking care of my family, raising my kids, and living as best as I can. Reading others posts makes me realize just how great I have it, which only depresses me and makes me wish I could help you have a great life too.

Today I drove Jess to Rainbow to see her doc. Seeing her coughing and hurting, I just wanted to yell at the doc to fix her. But he can't, nobody can. CF sucks.

I read my sister's latest blog post. I want to hold her and tell her that its all ok, but I can't. Life is such that we don't see each other but once a year if we are lucky.

Damn it, I hate it when I get this way. Life sucks sometimes.... Now to put on the happy face, go to work and smile.

First RVDC meeting of the year

Last night we got the 4 incharge ladies together for an hour meeting that lasted 2. It was GREAT! We talked about craft ideas, program ideas, cache placements, unit placements and all sorts of other stuff!

No tie-dye this year, but duct tape has returned, bigger and better then ever!
Each unit will be getting about a 1/2 day of geocaching experience, maybe more if I can find some more scouting geocachers that want to help.
I'm checking on the Oberline heritage center for our field trip, underground railroad should be interesting this year
We are going to talk to the metro parks about bringing Ohio Mammals this year

Next meeting is in a month, hope to have it all nailed down by there.

Ugh!

Library didn't open until noon! Didn't make it yesterday, won't make it today either.

On a good note the cookies are IN!!! Anyone interested in Girl Scout cookies??

Girl Scout troop 17

I have decided to go in search of old GS information from my troop 17 years. I searched 3 months worth of film yesterday, talk about a dizzying event! Then found a simpler way and found that we had done a paper and can recycle event in Sept. of 1984, the only thing regarding our troop that made it into the archives for the Chronicle Telegram. :(
So, today I'm going to go to the North Ridgeville library in hopes that they have the Press and Light on film there and see what I can find.

I did find a really neat binder of Girl Scout history for Lorain county that someone had put together for the Elyria library. Really neat stuff!

Here's hoping that I have better luck today!
