Begun

Well it has officially begun. The door to our office is closed and the work on drill for this year halftime show has started. I will probably see my husband when we eat dinner and when we go to bed. It isn't that bad. I know I will go in a couple of times to see if he needs anything or just some company. I am officially and band widow as my friend Kathy calls it. 

Sorry there was no post about the yearly directors meeting. With the summer band schedule and my job just flat out wearing me out we decided not to go. Granted I missed the fellowship of other directors and spouses, I know I will see some of them at contests and hear of their years. We also see a lot them at football games so I will enjoy stories there. Our first football game will be the first Friday in September and our true beginning will be next Friday for our preview concert. This is that time of year that the kids get to show the town what they have worked on during summer band and what we have planned for the next school year. We also get to raise money for the next year with our cookout and dessert auction. This year we are using a real auctioneer to sell the desserts. He has done this before at a fish fry and my husband told me he got a lot of money for the kids so I am excited to see JB in action for the kids.
