Fast update

So I am on medical leave because I have a shreaded Menisci in my right knee...

So I do not know what I did I just know that On the 6th I woke up with a pain in my knee and well it ended up 9th with a doctors appointment and a brace on my knee and on the 16th I ended up with a brace but I also had an MRI and well on wednesday I was told I shreaded it and I have to call a specialist and well I called I have an appointment on the 23rd but until then I have to stay off it.. after I tried to go to work and work said sorry you can not stand and if you hurt it more.... SO I am on medical leave.... STRESSING ME OUT

My back hurts, my neck hurts and my knee hurts like HELLO!!!

so that is the up date on the body..
Now start laughing because it is so funny....

SO I went to the store today... for a few things, I got what I wanted I had the clerk help me to the car, put my bags in the car and he shut the trunk... KEYS in the trunk....

I happened to leave the door open and well I was able to set down. however you cant open the trunk with out the key... the little button wont do it. so I had to call triple A...

Triple A I do so love... anyway... it cost me $41.85 to have them come out and make a key to open the trunk... WHICH I did not have a key for the trunk anyway...

THe lock smith said it I had Triple A plus It would not have cost me anything... So after I paid the $41.85 I called Triple A... Triple A plus costs $16.50 more than what Triple A costs... I said SIGN me up... It would not have cost me a penny for them to rekey the lock.

then I am a baker, baking all the time.... THE OVEN BLEW UP!!!! yes it started on fire and blew all the brakers in the house and blew the coil... so after I went to the Ward Pot luck... I went to talk to mr muhammad and Well after $425 later I am getting a new stove... FLAT TOP with nice oven... I could not spend much more money than that... I wanted a double oven... but I stayed with the cheaper one... WOW I am so happy nothing else is breaking down... KNOCK ON WOOD>>>

Ok thats a fast up date...

AND MOTHER... Doctor says its an old Handcart injury and I hope you had a good laugh today!!!

I just have that feeling

So I have been serving in a calling for over the past 3 years and YET I have done NOTHING! Yeah I know that should be the best part of the calling. But for me to do NOTHING really come on.

So on Tuesday night I took a member of the stake presidency to dinner... It is one of his favorite places and mine, but more important when I walk in I am treated like a KING... "TASTE OF INDIA".

I had already started with drinks and apps, before he got there but when he walked in he was ready to eat... You go with me you EAT!

SO we talked about everything.. me going to school, my life, my family, my friends, my dinners that I cook, my teaching every 3rd sunday, and well everything...

My main point that I wanted to talk about was my calling... and he asked me if I was willing to help with the good friday concert. WELL dessert part so now I am scared to death.. He said there is about 100 people, that turn out for this and well... I now have to plan light for this...

WHAT do I do? the first thing I am coming up with is cream puffs... (COSTCO) but anyone can do that... Now I have to think what am I going to do... Lucky for me I have a wonderful AUNTIE that will give me many IDEAS!!! Right WESLENE!!!

I wanted to do it I now have to do some thinking and praying!!!!

Name that bridge

I was looking in the paper this morning... Centre Daily Times and I saw this picture and Said... I know that bridge...
So do you!
