Today was my Relief Society Lesson on Baptism. It went very well inspite if a very stressful day. It was our fast meeting today as we had Stake Conference last sunday. I sat out in the foyer for sacrament meeting as I have trouble sitting in the chapel on those benches and I knew I had to work in the library and teach a lesson. Then Dad and I had trouble with the copy machine in the library and when I looked at the time, I should have been across the building to have prayer before my lesson so I had to rush, rush, rush to get there. Then after the lesson I was supposed to leave early and go to library and was late for that as I had to get my teaching supplies from the front of the room after prayer. Then I rushed to library and the other lady said she could handle it and I left as I needed to get a temple reccommend interview. Becky and I had an interview as Dad renewed his in July after I washed his for the second time. The man in the Bishopbric told me we needed to go to see the Stake President to get it signed tonight at 4-5. Then Matt and Jen Black (Jared's brother and his wife) had us over to eat at 1:45PM. We left at quarter to 4 and came home and went to church house and read sign that they met at 5-6 and did not meet on fast Sunday. Then Becky reminded me that I needed mine for Wednesday when Dad and I do sealings. The man in the Bishopbric that interviewed me took my old reccomend although he didn't take Beckys. We went to his house and he said he had shredded it. What to do now. He told us to call one of Stake Presidency and try to get them to sign it for me. I called them all and no one home. The Stake President's wife said they were in a meeting together somewhere. We went back to the Stake house and I waited out in waitingroom hoping that they were in a meeting there. Thank goodness they were and one of them interviewed me and thank goodness I now have one for Wednesday. Today has been very stressful.

This is my old one which has now been shredded. Thanks again for the cover Wendy. I also talked to Rilla, Bonnie and Mary Lou today. What a day. Now I am caught up and can relax and it is only 8:30PM.
I know how you feel. Sounds a bit like a typical Sunday for us too. Jared works with the second counselor in the Stake Presidency at work and we know Pres. Jensen pretty well (the kids named him "Hank the Monster" about two years ago when they saw him at Jared's work) so last time I needed my recommend renewed and it was over a fast sunday weekend, Jed made an appointment for me to get mine renewed on another night so that we could make it to some special trip we had planned to the temple. You should know that Jed, President Jensen, is a big joker, always friendly, and stands about 5'4" tall. The kids still call him "Hank" and go nuts when he talks or conducts a Stake Conference Meeting.
