I got up early today but had my days mixed up. I thought today was the day that the landscaping guy was coming out to compost our field, but realized I had my days off as today it is raining. If it isn’t too soggy, he will be here tomorrow and I can check this project off my list – the rain has been pretty light, so I think it will happen.
While I’m not much of a morning person, I do have to admit that I enjoy mornings like the one today – cool, misty and hazy, light drizzle – it is a perfect day for a hot cup of tea and some reading. That didn’t happen for me today, however, as I was too busy rushing through my morning routine to be ready for their arrival… not looking at my phone and confirming that it is tomorrow they are planning to be here until I was about done with everything. Maybe I’ll go to bed early tonight (ha!) and get up extra early tomorrow (double-ha!) to be able to enjoy the morning before the landscapers arrive.
Eh, it likely won’t be the same weather so wouldn’t have the same quality.
Chatting with my wife last night, I have to say, she was right all along. I should never have accepted the nomination to be on the Libertarian party board, or should have resigned the position immediately upon realizing they weren’t going to take liability seriously. Shelving the notes and spreadsheets for the region meeting I was going to call was cathartic. I no longer have any more obligations to the party (because of the timing, I couldn’t hold the meeting now anyway) so in 9 more days, I am fully released of any and all obligation to them.
I did get contacted by a few individuals asking me to stay and fight to keep the role and that there is enough meeting prep documentation to show I was still actively fulfilling the duties, but the reality is I never wanted to do any of that anyway. After everything went down yesterday, I felt much better about things. No longer will my wife have to hear me bitch about prepping for the region meeting nor about having to associate with the “moronic cunts” in the party. There are a few people I enjoy working with, but I’ve already spoken to most of them and will still work with them on specific projects as desired. But for now, I’m just going to be glad that I can stop paying them any attention at all.
