Busy Schedule

Holy Cow! I have something planned for every night this week! Do you know the last time I had a schedule this busy? I don't. I'm sure it's only a hint at what is to come, but dang!

Last night I did my very first visiting teaching. Visiting teaching is where two women will go visit other women in the ward- usually carrying a message from the Ensign. (Usually specific companions visit specific women- it's all assigned.) I really enjoyed myself last night. So I did that last night and then I have a few more visits this evening as well. I am enjoying this, but I'm glad that it only happens once a month.

My friend Manu, and his wife, is in town for the week. So I'll probably end up seeing them on Thursday and showing them around a little bit. That will be good- I haven't seen Manu since I moved 2 years ago (!- I've been in Utah now for 2 years and 1.5 months). I've never met his wife, so that will be interesting as well.

I got a part time job in the evenings as well so that will be taking up even more of my time. I'm going to be working at Michael's a few evenings a week. It was an opportunity too good to pass up (and hopefully I'll pick up some more craft tips!).

At some point, I have to get together with my friend April so that we can plan a Halloween party together (I'm so excited- I think I'm going to go as a prom queen this year).

And finally- Dave and I are on the Activities committee so we have all the going ons that are associated with that one!

Sunday we are triple booked- There's a family part to celebrate one of the nephew's birthday, dinner with the Woodburys, and dinner for the activities committee.

Last week I went from being a homebody to wondering when I'd ever get home! This will be interesting, let's see how long we can keep it up.

A Calling...

So Dave and I got a calling yesterday. We were asked to join the Activities Committee at our ward. So we're going to be helping out with that. :) As far as callings go, that's a pretty awesome one! We'll have a chance to meet a lot of the people in our ward. The first project we are going to work on is a young married couples get together and then comes the Trunk or Treat for Halloween.

I'm pretty excited!

Never mind...

I was going to write about how Dave and I met with the Bishopric last night but it occurred to me that no one will find that particularly interesting. So now I am at a loss as to what to write. (On a side note it turns out that our home teacher-who we also had a chance to meet last night- is one of our next door neighbors and I think that's wonderful).

Dave is sick (sore throat) today. No good. I tried to be the good wife last night and ran to the store in my pajamas to get him some sore throat stuff to help knock him out. We discovered at about 3 AM (when Dave still wasn't asleep) that I had bought the daytime/non drowsy version. Oops. So Dave's tired as well as sick, but at least he could take the medicine again this morning. :)

I love three day weekends because this week is just flying by. It feels like a Tuesday but it's really Wednesday- how awesome is that?!
