Though I once served on the Board, I must admit it was so wonderful sitting in my favorite chair in my comfie nightgown, listening to the meeting......UNTIL some unattened child got ahold of an extension phone. I waited and waited for the mother to appear and see this child with a phone.. but on and on went the noise until finally a Board Member also got tired of this distraction as well, and temporarily disconnect us. How could such a young child be unsupervised for so long? Anyway, it is such a privilige to be able to listen in to these meetings, and I so enjoy it. Wish others were more considerate. Thanks GSDCA Board for making the meetings available to all. Helen Franklin. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
