Hello blogging friends. I have missed you guys these last two weeks. From the title, you can tell that Girl Scouts took over the last two weekends and the weeks leading up to those weekends were filled with drama and communication problems and text message debates. The first weekend was the girl scout father daughter dance on Friday and on Sunday it was my town's Christmas parade and my husband volunteered to use our trailer as the float. We decorated it at my house the night before and there was so much tension because it was last minute, but the parade was successful and fun.
Last weekend is when the shit hit the fan. I started the great text debate and put my foot down about the communication and the last minute planning. Of course the leaders got defensive where it came to a point where me and the other parents thought about putting our girls in a new troop. But we got it figured out in time for the Christmas party last Saturday and watching the girl open their gifts from their secret sisters was just worth it.
My reading these last two weeks has slowed down because I am putting more time into work so I can relax starting this week and get ready for my birthday on Tuesday. I will be 31 and all the drama this month so far, I feel older. I will be going back and reading ya'lls posts and commenting. I hate that I couldn't make the time to sit a write a post let alone comment and read ya'lls work because I genuinely enjoy reading blog content. Also with that, There was a week where I didn't have any posts go up. I felt guilty but I realized that I will burn myself out and that I can't do everything at once.

I have been watching a lot of TV to get my mind of the Girl Scout drama and the stresses of life. One of my favorite things to watch are documentaries. I love learning about nature and animals and then I also am obsessed with Marvel. I am still asking myself why wasn't I at the theatre at midnight to watch the new spiderman movie and I then I look at my husband and kids and go yep, that's why....lol. I also finally started watching season 2 of Game of Thrones.
Happy birthday this week! And glad the parade went well even if there were issues beforehand. Drama like that with the Girl scout troop can be tough. We've had some of that kinda thing too with color guard and whatnot. Always drama!

yep, all three are mine. my oldest will be 13 in April. then I have an 11 year old and a 9 year old. Samantha is the oldest and Ariana is my middle and my tiny terror is Adalyn.
Deletethe drama is hopefully over for the time being, but cookie season is starting soon, so I am taking a good long silent break from those women...lol
Happy Birthday!! Have a great week! Oh the drama-- when my youngest was in girl scouts it happened to our troop as well. Hopefully everything is clarified now. I saw the new SpiderMan yesterday, OMG it was so good! Get out and see it this week if you can!
ReplyDeletemy mother in law used to be a former troop leader and she was mad that our troop leader was acting that way and me and my mother in law dislike each other...lol. she suggested a misconduct complaint but that would cause even more drama and problems.
DeleteI am hoping to see it soon. My girls are bugging me about it daily and where I go to the movies, I still have to make reservations and the days are all booked.
