A Successful Meeting

The association meeting—at least from my viewpoint—went extremely well. It even remained almost within the timeframe I set! I suppose all of the time and exertion I and others put into it paid off.

In my remarks as president I said: “This is a unique occasion: this is the last president’s report you shall ever hear at one of these meetings… As of January 1st the office of president is replaced by the office of moderator.”

I am glad this meeting is over. I am glad that it went as smoothly as it did. I would say that I am glad my term as president is almost over. I would say that, but as of January 1st I become moderator of the association. No, don’t congratulate me on my election. Just pray that next year goes more smoothly than this year. (And contribute to a fund to pay my therapist for the extra sessions I may require to make it through the year).

Now I want to either relax or play. Since I’ve no one here with whom to play—even Alex headed outside to cat around with his cat buddies—I suppose I’ll just relax. Of course, if you are in the area and want to come over and play, I’ll welcome you with open arms!
