Very tired.
You know though, it's a good tired. Last week, I promoted a new officer to help get our guild more active. I don't think I could have made a better choice! Bel has been an absolute blessing! He's somehow managed to get a few more guildies interested in raiding with us and has really gotten our guild active. He's been amazing. I'm eternally grateful for the hard work he's put in this week alone. He's just what our guild needed. He actually wore me out with raiding this weekend! IT WAS AWESOME! *cheers!*
Let's see...Previously, I had been denied my Naxx25 achievements because of stupid Thaddius. I'd never seen the final 2 bosses on 25-man. Last Friday, he grabbed the bull by the horns and MADE it happen!
Not only that, but we finally started our Ulduar progression. It's posted on our guild site but:
Ulduar 10Yeah...check that out! Our guild really owes Bel like thank you letters and flowers, and a new car...whatever he wants...

See, here's the thing. After weeks and weeks of trying unsuccessfully to bring our crew together to start raiding...I had completely given up. I was ready to leave the guild and move on. I'd even promised a tauren that I'd convert my druid to horde and server transfer to come hang out with him, especially since their guild raided so much. He's the one that planted that idea in my head, but at the same time he offered a lot of advice on how to get people motivated. His first suggestion? HIRE SOME DAMN OFFICERS ALREADY! The one man guild administration was failing miserably and we were all pretty frustrated. I had lost all hope. This weekend really helped to revive my spirit...
I mean, we not only destroyed Naxx25 Friday Night, but we started our Ulduar progression. After we called it quits on Ulduar (not enough frost resist gear lol), we moved back into Naxx10 for a gearing/learning run. Well, Naxx10 was a little rough Saturday night. We chalked it up to being tired from Ulduar and called it a night after one quarter.
Yesterday, we went in to try Hodir again. Who knew that trying to stay by the fire while avoiding other random damage was so hard? I was pretty tired though. Maybe this week we can try again and I'll "get it". We've come so far...even if we don't beat Hodir for another month it won't matter.
I'm the happiest guild leader ever! Not only do I have Bel as my right hand man, but our guild actually participated in a lot of activity together this weekend. I'm really impressed with the performance, perseverance, and participation of my guild crew this week. Beautiful, beautiful job guys! *wipes away a tear of joy* Thank you for renewing my hope in our little family!
Another, stranger update: I was asked by one of our guild pvp people if I'd go onto his 3v3 team. I think I might like to, but I don't want to drag his team down. I don't have any pvp gear so far...I pretty much hate battlegrounds...but, I'm thinking maybe if we go into some battlegrounds together, I can learn more and maybe grind out some honor for the pvp gear I need in order to participate. I really wish I knew SOMETHING about arena...it terrifies me. So, Dara, we'll schedule our first skirmish soon...but you probably need to teach me more about pvp 'cuz...yeah I'm fail at it. lol
He's really gotten my husband into PvPing, and they're possibly working on an arena team together also. I'm getting ready to create a PvP officer Rank. I just...need time to get that taken care of. It'll be nice to have a PvP officer, but I hope he's ready for a challenge. It's hard to develop a solid core of PvP players in a PvE oriented guild. We'll see how that all works out...
Hope you're ready for a bumpy ride, Dar...I'm clueless on PvP lol
