every couple of years, i think, "i can't wait until life slows down." i may have finally come to terms with the fact that it never will. and i take complete responsibility for it... i know that i am the one to blame for how busy things get in my world. i just can't seem to help myself.
and though i would love to regale you with extravagant stories of where i've been, the truth is, where i've been is at work. a lot. (and keep in mind, that is in no way a complaint.) i am loving what i do. and it's a good thing, because i spend a lot of time doing it. there's no better feeling than to love your work. and believe me, i know a little something of what it's like to wake up day after day with anxiety. for years. so i'm very grateful to be where i am now. in fact, grateful doesn't even begin to cover it.
but working a lot leaves little time to blog.
and even though there are no outrageous exploits to recount, (and it doesn't help that winter has a way of keeping me in a state of semi-hibernation) i have been filling my free time with little things here and there...
took a little trip to florida (post to come soon).
i picked up a french class. (i'm determined to be fluent one of these days.)
spent 2 hilarious evenings serving hot dogs and beer to die hard soccer fans. to whom i may or may not have spoken in a british accent.
mj's 'the experience' for the wii. all the single ladies. table full of treats. enough said.
saw romeo and juliet - dance style.
hanging out with grandma.
reading. i heart reading. it's how i refill my tank....
preparing lessons for my new calling (teaching the 12 and 13 year old group). i'd be lying if i said i wasn't a little bit apprehensive about this calling... there being a little bit of pressure associated with the calling. the bishop said (when he extended the call), "nothing to worry about, it's just the future of the church on your shoulders." uh huh. as it turns out? i absolutely love it. so far it's been rill rill fun.
and finally, i have learned how to make my own laundry soap. it's way cinchy. (thanks April!)
how 'bout that for an update?

sounds like a load of awesomeness!
WTH? future of the church on your shoulders?
ours warns that kids that age are D-BAGS and good luck, do the best ya can. (not really) but i totally think that. since i have one living in my house and daily have reminders that it is so.
isn't it crazy that life is so damn speedy these days?
I'm glad to know it's crazy for everyone, not just those that are driven there by their offspring.
lova ya Jayna! so fun to hear what is upwitchu!
