October Already ?!?!?

Can you believe it is October already? I know I have not written much lately but boy have I been busy over the last month.

Cub Scouts: Resident Camp, Den Meetings, Pack Meeting, and the beginning of popcorn sales.

School: Assisting with PTO fundraiser and a field trip!

Family: Last month we had a couple of birthdays and (unfortunately) one loss.

Extra: Chess for the boy is up a running with the first tournament of the season schedule for October 6th.

Tonight, we had our first Den meeting of the month for scouts… Not normally a huge deal, but the guy that normally plans the meetings had to go out of town on short notice. That left me to get everything together at the last second. Even though today’s meeting was “thrown” to together at the last second, I believe it was one of the best meetings we’ve had in three years. We sang a song (which we never do), played “flying pigs” (we don’t play a lot of games), a passed out a ton of awards. The boy was elected Denner tonight by the boys. This means he is “in charge” of the Den until December. He is pretty excited by this as you can well imagine.

Well that’s it for now. Need to finish up planning for tomorrow nights Pack Leader’s Planning meeting (I am the Committee Chairman for the Cub Scout Pack as well). I think I am ready for that meeting, but never hurts to put on the finishing touches.

Tomorrow we have chess club and the afore mentioned meeting… always busy! I am also going to try and get a few photo’s I have been saving out to my Picasa Web Albums. If I get time I’ll work on my resume (Still not looking for a job, but will need to soon) and update the Pack 225 website (since it is October and still no monthly update)…
