This morning I went to help out with Stephen's walkthrough, but it turned out that Mark and I were useless there since Henry was the only one with the power of attorney. So we just hung around and chatted, while Henry did the walkthrough. I was a little bummed. I was really pumped to see the final product, darn. Now Mark and I can barely do anything to help, since Henry needs to handle everything (POA reasons). Hopefully Henry knows that he probably needs to stick around here for at least a week-ish until the keys get handed over...
On another note, right now I'm a little nervous about tonight's core meeting. I'm always wondering when the poop will hit the fan. But I'm learning to not be too stressed out, taking it easy, and remembering that all is not in my complete responsibility (whew!). But I always feel the constant pressure to be alert to put out the random fires that come up here and there. I'm getting an awful lot of practice being a mediator. (Boys butt heads and girls are non-existant.) And just thinking about it all is giving me a headache right now.
And speaking of headaches, L is no longer one. She seems serious, and if she is, I'll try to support her the best I can. It's the least I can do if I really do want to build a relationship with her.
This is not supposed to be an encouraging blog, because that's not how I'm feeling right now. I feel constantly dumped on with extra burdens, and then left alone to figure it all out by myself. People freely lend me their sympathies and well wishes, but rather than dumping on me, an actual lending hand would prove a million times more useful than just burdensome talk.
