So last night was my first school district facilities meeting. It went very nicely. I can see that I will be able to contribute to the process.
This was sort of a milestone for me. Getting involved with the district was my very first GAL activity goal that i set almost a year ago. This has stemmed other little goals that I've knocked down but the meeting itself was sort of a milestone in my heart yo get through.
I was very excited for myself. I shared my excitement with my wife and i thanked her deeply for all of her encouragement and her support with this process. I wanted to go out and celebrate so I asked her out for a desert for when I got home.
She was up for it. When I finally got home it was really late. Errands and the meeting ran late...it was 9:45...she was hesitant but she could tell it was something I wanted to do (I was plannening on going myself if she ended up not wanting to go)...and she decided yes.
We had a nice time. Tried to keep the conversation on our days instead of kids. Overall was only an hour but still nice time.
I was very glad she went with to share in my little celebration for myself! There were other interactions that i was excited about over last few days for me and my listening / validation 180s & goals, but the facilities team goal was a big step for me to get 'out there'
