If Margy's last post was accurate and the meeting was called and items sent outside the guidelines of the P&P, this board will earn nothing more than my contempt for riding roughshod over the rules and regulations, wasting my membership dollars and trying to forced the resignation of an elected board member. I could just puke! ................... Strong words, and ones I can't disagree with. But, they work hard, put in hours after hours and for nothing in return. Most of our board means well, does the best they can. Those we do not agree with have reasons for what they do. I may not agree with them, but I still respect them for doing a job I refuse to do. On top of that, some of those on our board do all but throw themselves into the flames to fight for the right thing. No one can fight every fight, but we can't blame everyone for every mistakes. These are people who have given of themselves for us, and even while we may hate what they do, we have to recognize the work and effort they put forth.
