Andy and I went to Flat Branch Pub and Brewing to try a new beer – High Mileage Imperial Stout. It was quite tasty, and it was an hour out with my husband. It was a great way to wrap up a long work day.
Freezer February
Freezer February preparation is done! My list of things to purchase and prepare is ready, and the 8 X 8 pans for the casseroles arrived today. It will be a busy food prep month!
When Approval Goes All Wrong
I realized this morning that two of my employees had a miscommunication regarding an approval I gave to purchase materials. The miscommunication led to a $60,000 mistake that I am ultimately responsible for as director. I spent the day working to fix the error. Most of the time, I really love my job, but it is days like today that just really suck.
Winter Court of Honor
The Troop 706 Winter Court of Honor was this evening. John earned service hour beads, the Personal Fitness merit badge, and the Life rank.
The Life rank is the last rank before Eagle. While John is not sure that he will work towards Eagle, he does seem more motivated to finish the required merit badges. He still has nearly 18 months to finish should he choose to do it.
Congratulations to John and the other members of his patrol! It is so hard to believe that these boys are now the “older scouts.”
Cinnamon Roll Sales
Neither Andy or John were particularly thrilled to run the cinnamon roll sales booth for Troop 706, but they did it anyway. They were good Scouts today!
