I Suck At Project Management

On Saturday, I got to play the role of project manager. Unfortunately, I suck at project management. My friend and possible future mayor of Quincy (Cass) would probably be better at it because he likes to boss people around. Plus, I think it's what he does. So remember... vote Cass!

Anyway, to help Karen and I while our daughter (Briana) was at the hospital, my friends (Marc and Kelley) organized a little get together with a bunch of our friends. The general idea was to have everyone come over to our house and help us complete a bunch of projects. Since Karen and I had so little time these days, every little helping hand helped. And I must say... I was pleasantly surprised come Saturday. There were just so many friends offering to help us out. It was amazing. Without sounding too sappy, it was moments like that which make me extremely thankful to have the friends that I do.

Needless to say, there were simply a bunch of friends doing our projects around our house. Since Karen could not drive (due to having stitches from pregnancy... doctor's orders...), Marc drove her around certain stores to run errands; My BFF (Kerry) and Kelley helped paint our first floor bathroom; My friends (Ellen and Leeann) hung up shades in Briana's room; My friend (Carlos) moved a bunch of rocks from our driveway; My friend (Garv) and Cass also helped move the rocks when Carlos had to leave (yes, there are a lot of rocks); My friends (Jen, Hot Amy, and Andrea) removed fallen tree limbs and turned over the soil in our garden; Andrea even took a sledgehammer to our driveway; Hot Amy even cooked some things for us;

The list goes on and on. I'm sure I missed listing a few projects, and for that I apologize. My friends were so efficient that they finished many of the tasks all within the limited time frame that Karen and I had before having to shuttle ourselves back to the hospital to see Briana. To me, it was amazing to have so many our friends coming together to help us out. I know I will never forget it.

Again, thank you everyone. And of course thank you Marc and Kelley for organizing it. All of you made it a special day for me, Karen and Briana. So thank you... all of you! I feel blessed to be able to call all of you friends.
