Thank you

Stress of the Leitch

Teaching today.... So I had to the chance to teach Elder's Quorum today.. I started with the lesson about 4 weeks or so ago... I will tell you I had my stress go over the top this morning when I was trying to think of all the last minute details... I told stories and well did the Scott thing... I really did stress out this morning to the point of dry heaving, loss of sight and just freaking out..

I came home from church and jumped into bed and did not get up until 8. YEAH I really freaked out..

So when I did come too I emailed the President and asked forgiveness for out there in left field teaching..

this is what I got back...

Hi Scott,

Thank you so much for your lesson - it was great. No forgiveness necessary. You did a great job and I'm grateful for your service. Thanks for sharing your personal experiences, and, on the side, for feeding the quorum (not to mention the rest of the ward).

There was nothing inappropriate in your lesson whatsoever. My dad used to regularly show Star Wars as part of one of his lessons, and I showed Groundhog Day in one of mine. There are also parts of the Matrix that I'd find appropriate to show in some lessons, as well as The Mission and New York Doll. In that company, Les Mis approaches Saturday's Warrior. You're a valuable part of our ward and quorum and, again, I'm grateful that you were willing to extend yourself and share your thoughts and feelings with us.

I hope that we can use you sooner than 6 months from now - I appreciate any teacher who wants to start preparing 4 weeks in advance.

Thanks Scott!

Dan

I told them I would teach again in 6 months... really the stess I had well.... today I have lost about a year of my life.

LOL

Ok the stress is on this week at work wish me luck!

Starting with December 1

White Christmas, December 1 was it. I have two wonderful friends that have season tickets to the 5th Ave Theathre and I bought one of there seats and now we go to every show. AWESOME! I was not feeling the Christmas mood yet, I was still trying to get things up for Christmas, I know I was working on Christmas before Thanksgiving, but it was stillnot coming to me.

SO as I was driving down town seattle, THE LIGHTS, THE WINDOWS, the season was here. I quickly realized, Christmas was going to be here and I was not ready!

I felt the STRESS OF the holidays coming at me all at once. YUCK! I am not one that usually gets stressed about the holidays but for some odd reason I started to!!!

Maybe it was because I opened to may doors at one time!

Martha Has nothing on my month!!

seeing most of last week is over now... ITs onto another one.

Sunday December 13th, is my annual Christmas party, cookies, cakes, food, food and more food.

the 18th is a missionary christmas dinner, and I am giving to that cause, ...

But it just seems like things just keep going.

Ok for now, I lost train of thought...

Just what is asked of me to do?

Ok first off before I say anything that will hurt anyones feelings.. I am just in a mood so please bear with me.

I am hitting a low again in my life... so yes the st john wart will be coming out of the cupboard again. LOL.

Sometimes you just have to say YES I CAN

Right now I have gotten home from work and sitting down thinking to myself..... what is going on with me and what is going on with the life that I am living. I enjoy what has happend or is happening to me. I hope that made sence. What I am am trying to say for ever cause there is an effect and every effect there is a cause. I have been trying to find my cause because I have been sure hit with the effect.

I have tryied to be my the best that I can be. I have tryied to make sure everything around me and the people I have been blessed with have been here around me to help me. It's funny what I am saying is.... what am i trying to say...

What have I done..

I have been up to well just about everything. Trying to keep up with life. I can not believe how busy it has been and I have had been doing everything I can to keep up.

I guess that is what final are all about.

I did my last project which were pictures and I did a book cover and a music poster which I think I did well on. If I can down load them I will but right now you should know me a computers dont know how to work together. LOL

I only missed 4 days of class and well.... it showed to me that I can do this school stuff. And the reason I missed was because of Valentine's day.

I have been busy trying to keep up with the house... I am not sure how some people do it. I have a Hemma and well I still dont get everything done that needs to be done. I find out that when I just get things picked up and laundry washed it is time for me to start all over again.

Just about the best Birthday wish!!!

Thank you Abby!

I love to see the Temple

SO tonight I was able to go to the temple. what a blessing it is. there were a few things I noticed or felt and felt. I wish sometimes people could see the things I see.. I wish you could see my through my eyes.

I am very happy being single,

My Best Friends....

My Best Friend will always be Jen! so she knows I should not call this my best friends.. But I have some wonderful friends that no matter what my mood is they are always there to listen to me!

It's all about ME!

Sometime change is what it is all about.

I know I have not been the best blogger and well facebook took over my life and well... you got it. the blog suffered. But tonight I had to give my two cents worth.

I get a little tired of being me. I know humble... prideful... just me.

I am tired it has been a weekend of work work work and mother's day and well.. i just might be tired and really need a break.

I want more in my life than what I have. I have been missing alot. tonight as I am watching tv I have noticed a lot of FAMILY FAMILY FAMILY things on tv.

I have been missing my extra family. SO what and were and what am I talking about.

See this is why I need to blog more.

last year our ward was split and well I am now a fish out of water.. I have been serving as Sunday School President.. I have hosted a few ward activities and I have given my two cents worth and I still feel like anything I say or do really isnt important.

I am lost.. and yes I know it is all about me and how I look at things.. but I am just lost.

I feel like I have been just going through the motions and not doing what I should be doing. The fact that communication is lacking and that we are not all on the same page.. well this might be what is just making me crazy.

I got to the point that I cant say anything any more because it will drive me crazy.  We have discussed the same thing 4 weeks in a row and I only go every other week..

I get so frustrated!!!!!

it's about time

SO I have been a little out of it and I have not written out what has been going on for a while. YES I know.

So let's see... Where or what do I write about. I guess I will start with the news of the Ward being changed on the 30 Sept. YES thing are being changed up a little and yes we all hate change but sometime we have to do what we have to do.

Our Stake is making 2 new wards and changing things up a little. YES I will loose some friends in this change but we will make new ones and we will keep moving forward.

I keep thinking what and how they will do  it, where will I end up in the shuffle. what will I do who will I be friends with, what will my calling be... I know I am at peace right this minute with this.

Just to complain

So I know its not like me to complain.. LOL Ha ha ha ha Hee hee hee ha ha ha....

sometime you just have to. I just have to say is it just me or did someone wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. well it is Monday.

so there are a few thing I have to say is I am not sure why...

today when I was doing clean up at work from yet another holiday.. a lady came in to place a balloon order. I was trying to help her and she point blank said to me... are you willing to help me or not. I am having a bad day and you are not helping me. REALLY.. I wanted to tell her where to go but then I was thinking dont complain. but really you dont need to take it out on the florist.

so another thing happened I have been working my butt off putting in 6 days and to be told today my hours are getting cut.. makes me mad. Makes me more than mad it well... I should just keep my mouth shut here and be thankful I have a job.

I keep thinking did I make the right move not taking that floral shop.

I try to be postive but sometimes it so dang hard.

Just saying will life happen the way you want it to or the way the Lord wants it to.

Sinners have Soul to you know

Today has been a long day. I started out at 3am when I was wide awake knowing that I had toget up at 4 to go to work. IT was not what I was looking forward to doing but I knew I was to be at work by 5 and well the snooze button was pushed a few times. But I got up out of bed and was ready to face the music of working in the bakery today. I so enjoy my Sunday afternoons when I can just come home and sit and well lay down and watch a movie... today was one of those days that all I wanted to do was to watch a movies. SO that is what I did.

of all the movies I picked today, It wasnt a Harry and the Henderson type of day and I fall asleep in the middle most of the time when I watch it.. I picked "The Color Purple" Yeah I know sappy sad movie.
and this time I could not fall asleep but I ended up watching the movie...

and Changes are happening in my life and I found myself  listening to the movie real carefully because for some odd reason I needed to learn something. WOW I heard it and saw new things that I have not heard or saw before... and  it came up to the part where shur and miss celia are walking through the field and the line is "the more thing change the more thing stay the same".. and I had to pause this line and listen to it a few more time before I understood it.

a minute later shur says "I think it makes God mad if you walk by a field of purple and dont notice it"
wow when was the last time you did not notice the little things in life.

a minute later it happens to go in to the following...

http://www.myspace.com/video/vid/10389275

"God is trying to tell you something"


I dont know what it is or when it is going to happen but I feel a change coming on...


Today at church the announcement was made that by the fall our ward was going to change, ALL the youth meet in our ward and starting in the fall all the families with youth will be attending the ward that they live in. WOW this is going to change our ward and my life. Just sayin.

and as I start to put the pieces together in my mind and in my heart and soul..  I realized that the Lord really had controll over all of us and the things that happen in this life and in the things that will happen in the next life.

as I watched the end of the movie.. sometimes it not just the things that happen in the past that cause us to feel like we dont have a soul but its the things in the present that we can do to create the future to be a little better for each of us.

Easter 2012

More of my Mini Vacation

so I think you can only upload so much before it freezes on you so I had to add more I just found myself taking pictures I drove by this and turned around and had to stop and take pictures.... This is where I found myself saying we are losing our past.. our history..

so I heard somewhere of a proverb saying the Earth dosent belong to use its on loan to us from our children.

I wonder what and where will we ever be or where are we going, I was sad because as I was driving I noticed alot of empty houses and buildings... would it not be nice to be back the way life was....
