A Restless Couple of Weeks

The weekend prior to St. Patrick's Day was rather interesting. On Friday the 11th, I went to a dinner at Malone's in Bridgeton with a Meetup group. Had a nice time there. That Saturday and Sunday, I was refereeing in a youth soccer tournament at Sportport. I actually missed my first game assignment on Saturday, due to a communications mix-up, but after that, things went well for that weekend.
On Tue., 15 March, I ran the IPMS/Gateway meeting. That went well, with a decal demonstration and a "beauty contest" (with a strong turnout of models).
On the mornings of Thu. the 17th and Fri. the 18th, I was at a job search workshop in Webster Groves. I sat through programs on career resources, resumes, networking, and interviews. Much of these info I had heard before, but some was rather new to me. There were quite a few people there (about 70, I estimate), which should tell you about the times we're in now.
Thu. night, I worked a phone back on behalf of Jake Zimmerman, Democrat for St. Louis County Assessor in the 5 April election. I'll be doing some more such calls for Zimmerman's campaign between now and the election.
Saturday morning, I was at Mueller Field in St. Charles officiating Midwest Regional League u-14 girls games, which went well. I had a couple of GSLS u-12 girls games at the Soccer Park yesterday morning. No problems with either contest.
Now, on to another week. Take care. Later.
