Say what???

Today, I got called to be the emergency preparedness specialist! Is that a mouthful or what?? I thought they were going to ask me to be a primary worker (which got me irritated because I'm just about to have a baby!!!!) And then they ask me to be this (and I'm still thinking....I'm just about to have a baby!!!!) Why do I have to do something new at all right at this very moment??? I asked him if he was serious because I was confused that they would call me to something like this! I thought it must be a mistake. He had to be thinking of the wrong person. The lady that was doing it is the perfect person for the job. She has tons of food storage and knows all about everything. I have a few extra groceries under my stairs and a couple partly done 72 hour kits. Not exactly the best person for the job. And yes, I know....I am being called because I NEED to learn. I know I need to learn. But do I need to learn when I only have ONE month to go in my pregnancy??? Do I really need to be trying to figure this out when I have sooooo much to do already in this ONE month before my baby boy comes??? I was quite upset when I got home the night the counselor asked me. I just feel so overwhelmed with everything and I am not exactly feeling so good. It's just one more thing that is putting me over the edge. Plus, everyone keeps telling me, "Oh, the other lady was so good at it. She was perfect. I don't know why she was released!!!" Me either people. Me either. But I'm just going to do what I can do and everyone is just going to have to be ok with that.

How many jobs you got man???

If you are old enough, you will have said that in your head with a Jamaican accent:) I say that to Travis when I'm talking about his callings. He's got four!! And they were all music until today. He is in the Stake Orchestra, Ward Chorister, Chorister in Elders quorum and was the Choir director. He is now the first three plus Sunday School teacher for the 12-13 year olds.....(you know because he doesn't get enough of those kiddos during the week....lol)! I know he will do great though because he is awesome and I think he is also relieved to be done with choir. He is just not a choir person. He tried to be. He really did. But knowing about music doesn't always include singing. He teaches kids how to play instruments, not how to sing so it was a struggle for him. And of course it doesn't help when no one shows up for the practices. So, I'm happy to see him move on to something else. I hope he enjoys it:)

I was also wondering why the men in our ward have to shave when they get certain callings. We just got a new bishopric and a brother in our ward walked in completely shaved. He has had a goatee for forever!! We knew that he had to be one of the men being called and we were right. So my question is why??? Why does a clean face equal worthiness??? In all of the pictures of Heavenly Father and Jesus, they all have full beards. Some men look way better with them including my hubby. I liked him when he was clean shaven better for a long time but I have gotten so used to his chin hair that I much rather have him with it. He has shaved it a couple of times and both times, he has grown it right back. It just didn't look right on him anymore to be without it. My dad also has a full beard. He has always had a full beard since I can remember. One time his work told him he had to shave. He looked like a completely different person and we all hated it!! Including his work:) They told him to grow it back shortly after!! LOL! I'm just saying!! :-)

Bonk!!

She did it again....this time bonking her forehead!! She has a big bump sticking out of her beautiful, little forehead. Poor baby!!

My beauty also figured out how to scoot down the stairs on her butt today. And she is very proud of it. She kept doing it and clapping her hands!! She's such a doll face, even with a horn coming out of her head;)

And.....my desk is clean!!! The reason why? I got released as R.S. secretary and I just got rid of 8, yes 8, binders!!! I can't believe how much room it freed up!!
