Busy Week

I have to say that I am very glad this week is over. I have been involved in way too many things and I am very ready to have a change of pace. On Saturday I was in charge of a greeting card project at our Super Saturday craft day. I was asked to do this and disobeyed the voice screaming in my head to say "NO!!!!" I should have listened. It wasn't that it was a bad experience. I just didn't have the time to do it last week and my family suffered because of it. I enlisted the help of my very kind friend, Ali, to help me make all the cuts and get everything ready. She even helped me at the table that morning. I needed her sanity more than anything! The project came out really well but I wasn't able to stay the entire day because I needed to get ready for our teacher in service meeting we had at church today.

I was more stressed about that because 1) I just felt like it was very important and 2) teacher in service is what I struggle with the most in my calling. We held it during Sunday School so that we could get maximum attendance and it went really well. We had all the teachers, music leaders, and nursery leaders come and we had lots of help taking care of the things in primary. I guess it got a little crazy in there though! We changed the schedule around to accommodate our meeting and my counselors kept forgetting how the timing went. Then, I had asked one of the missionaries in our ward to play the piano and that didn't turn out so well. I wasn't able to get with him until just before Sacrament meeting so he wasn't as prepared as he wanted to be. So, yes, it was chaotic but we survived!

Brad had an abscessed tooth this week. He thought it was just stress but turns out he had a major infection going on inside. Tuesday it was hurting him pretty bad and by early Wednesday he had taken all our leftover percaset and vicadin and was still in major pain. We eventually got him to the dentist, who drilled a hole in the tooth. Brad watched the whole thing and when it was all over, promptly passed out for a bit while the dentist was talking with him. Brad is still deciding if he wants the tooth pulled out or get a root canal. He has had continual problems with it so he is torn on what to do.

Logan and I also got our hair cut this week. I'm not sure how we fit it in but it is really nice to see Logan's face again! I am glad to have shorter hair also! The long hair was really getting old.
