I registered!
Phew, there was a long line of people waiting to register. A long line of people with their volunteer shirts! I quickly surmissed that you were supposed to bring your volunteer shirt. I didn’t. I thought “Okay, if I need it and I don’t have time to get it – so be it. I’ll be fine either way.”
Then I charmed my way in and the registration process went so fast. (Shouldn’t we talk about this? Or hold hands or something??!) After the iPad said Registration Complete, I had a wave of emotion. Had to work to not cry among everyone acting like these are normal transactions.
This is extraordinary people!!!
Also. From the happiness research I’ve been reading, the more you can put on your list and immediately cross off, the more inspired you will be to continue. Cross off running a marathon (or two or three!)
