Today I got into the office a little bit later than normal, I was sitting for a family all morning and ended up running a little late.  We are still busy filing all the paperwork from the meeting and updating the social media sites.  We are also getting ready for the Bexley Shop Hop that is coming up on November 5^th.  SMS will be providing sitters for the event. 

We are also really excited in the office today because the launch of our sister organization, Simply Friends Forever is this Sunday! We have no idea where the time has gone, but October 2^nd is right around the corner! We have so much fun stuff planned for the kids and great auction items for the adults.  Face painting, pumpkin painting and warm apple cider to say a few!  Amanda and the crew of planners have been working on making this event fabulous for several months.  We are excited to finally celebrate the beginning of a very successful nonprofit organization! Keep your fingers crossed that the weather is nice for our event and be sure to join us and bring family and friends! It is located at Thompson Park, 5600 Thompson Rd Gahanna, OH 43230.

  The rainy weather today made it so hard to get out of bed this morning.  But, I did arrive, and have been busy updating all of our records from the meeting yesterday!

 The meeting went smoothly and there were no major issues.  It was fun to have everyone get together in one place and put faces with names. I have been filing their paperwork and updating their schedules, so it was nice to meet them in person.  

 We also took a group photo that Amanda uploaded onto the SMS Facebook page.  Everyone should check it out. Although there are a bunch of girls missing because of conflicts, it gives you a general idea all the SMS girls!

This week we are just busy getting everything updated from the meeting, hiring new staff for Fall and Winter Quarter, and hopefully sending off a few press kits in the near future!

Lets hope this weather turns around, because I’m not ready for the dreary days of winter just yet.

Still hoping to meet everyone at the Simply Friends Forever Launch Party!  October 2^nd 3-5pm.  Join us for face painting, pumpkin decorating, warm cider and tons of awesome auction items!

Check back next week!

Normally the office is pretty busy and we somehow manage to fit in a blog post right before we head out for the night. This past week was crazy and I totally forgot to post about the day. Today has been even crazier.  So many sits being requested,  the new website is ALMOST ready to launch, the meeting is happening Sunday, the Simply Friends Forever launch party, etc etc.  The list does NOT end.  Amanda is referring to it as Crazy Town in here. I have to agree with her on this one.  SO just a reminder.

THIS SUNDAY: Sep 18^th is the mandatory sitter meeting at 4PM

The Simply Friends Forever Launch Party is October October 2 from 3-5! I am on the events committee and we are busy planning some fun events for the kids and some great auction item for the adults.  We are looking forward to a great turnout.  Be sure to bring family and friends out to help support this amazing organization. 

Ok. I am off to staple 100 packets together for the sitter meeting.  I will blog again after the meeting!

Happy Monday J
