Some :D and some D:
First, the :D, which is really more of a :D :D :D ...
There's a new book in the Outlander series! It's called An Echo in the Bone, and I thought A Breath of Snow and Ashes was gonna be the end of the series and it WASN'T! XDDD
Also, I got the book Flash Forward. I haven't started it yet, but I got addicted by the first two episodes of the TV show, so... XD
And now for the D:
There was an FRG meeting today. Chris and I just got back from it.
The current FRG leader mentioned to the new Captain and 1SG that I went to most of the meetings. Yay, recognition! But her husband is now leading a different company, and she'll be leaving for that company's FRG soon...and she wants me to take over as FRG leader.
WHUT.
I did mention to her that I'm in therapy for anxiety, though I don't think I helped my case for not taking over by making suggestions during this evening's meeting.
I suppose I could do it... though honestly I'm more worried about motivation than anxiety. I can talk to people if I have to as long as it's not about me and it's not confrontational. But lack of motivation is why I didn't have my college shit together by the time I graduated high school and wound up going Navy (for that and other reasons)...
To be honest, I was hoping that when the current FRG leader mentioned needing a new leader, that all eyes would have turned to the new 1SG's wife. But that didn't happen. :P And she's new to FRG stuff.
Butbutbut...all I did at the FRG meetings I attended was show up and make suggestions! D:
I can't remember the last time I was in a leadership position. (Unless you count training new people after I'd been at Dillard's awhile.)
Ah, well. It looks like I might get "drafted," and if I do, well...I guess I'll suck it up work my ass off. It'd be nice to have something to work on, and I did want to be active in the FRG (though I prefer to be a worker bee),...I should be careful what I wish for, huh? :P
