I went to my first Garden Club board meeting, and am somehow not only taking on updating the website (which was the bit I had agreed to in advance), but also creating and maintaining a Facebook group for it, helping another evening on the Garden Walk, joining (and possibly chairing??) the Civic Beautification committee, and probably helping with the Centennial celebration next March. Whee!
Apparently when a bunch of smart, hard-working, garden-wise women who are mostly my mom’s age invoke civic responsibility, it is very hard for me to say no.
