Partial resignation as Choir Manager

I spent a couple of hours last night “crafting” an email to the chair of the board. I had mentioned to the board on a couple of occasions that filling in grant proposals has never been my idea of fun—even if I were to get paid for it. It is hard to believe that in 2006 one proposal mails you hard copies of the application to fill in by hand. You don’t really want to try and read my hand writing. Though my printing is somewhat more readable it takes me much, much longer. I finally had to partly resign in writing to get this message across. I’ll continue, on a volunteer basis, with the choir record keeping and in making arrangements for concerts and rehearsal venues.

I’m a computer-type guy. If I can’t write, find or buy the programs to do most of the paperwork-generation then I probably won’t ever get around to it. I’ll choose to walk the dog in the pouring rain (like today) instead.
