Can you clean the fish tank?

Yep.  It's been that kind of day.  You know, the kind where you get up and have great intentions and then you turn around and it's 2:00 in the afternoon.  And you haven't done anything.  Bother.

SO. 

Here I am on the computer, doing a blog post, because I've felt a little guilty about not blogging lately, when I don't have a reason, never mind a good reason, not to be posting.  It just hasn't been happening. 

I have been busy.  On Saturday, we had our first drill competition.  It was awesome people.  We are so awesome.  I know, I know, that sounds a little pigheaded, but really it's just the truth, and what can you do, but speak the truth.  We took three routines, and came away with three first place trophies.  You really can't do much better than that!

(it's so nice to be back!)

I have soooo much stuff to do.  I promised myself that when the wedding was over, I was going to spend some time reading, and sitting around, and just recuperating from being overwhelming busy with wedding and Christmas.  What a farce!  I have had a couple days where I didn't do anything, but generally, that was because I had a migraine and just couldn't function.  Where is my book reading time!?  It isn't coming this week.  And probably not next week either.

Did I tell you that I got a new calling?  Yep, Stake Young Women's.  So far, it's been a piece of cake and I've totally enjoyed it.  I mean, what's not to love!  Go to the dances, sit around and visit, or stand up and get my groove on.  Hang out with my Zoey, and embarrass her as only a mother can.  Well, those days, I can see, are pretty much over.  We are starting camp stuff next week.  People, I am not a camper.  I see fun times in my future.  Fun times. 

As I sit here, letting my thoughts race through my head, I look over at my fish tank and realize that better put that on my to do list.  It's a mess.  Really.

Does anyone else get tired of fighting against feelings of..... whatever is bad going on in your life?  Right now, I'm frustrated, anxious, fed up, worried.  I fight against those over and over, knowing that I need to just give them up and give them over to God.  And yet, here I sit, fighting them all over again.  So. Very. Tired.

We are getting into the Christmas spirit in our house!  Yes, you read that right.  The Christmas spirit has finally come to our house.  The Christmas music plays every day, I'm watching Christmas movies while I work in the kitchen, I've been doing some baking, and working on Christmas (New Year's)(Valentine's Day?) cards.  I'm only a month late....

Okay, I need to finish whining and go do something constructive. 

Peace Out.

I love the Young Women's program!! The stake YW will be a fun adventure for sure. I'm not a camper, to me, sleeping in a sleeping bag on the couch is too close to camping for my liking BUT being there as a leader is sooo much fun. Plus you don't even realize that you're camping (unless it rains e.v.e.r.y.d.a.y :)). Even in the rain it wasn't too bad, it's such a fun week. Good luck!!
