I have been so busy lately I can barely remember my name. I was in charge of something called Super Saturday at our church for the ladies. It's a day when they sign up to do all these different kinds of projects and have lunch. It's a huge logistical and planning nightmare, but I did it, it's done, and it's overwith (last saturday)...thank goodness. I signed up to do a project knowing that I wouldn't actually have time that day to do any of it. I spent all of Monday and Tuesday of this week doing the project...10 Christmas stockings. 5 are a gift and 5 are for my family. Then, while I had the sewing machine out, I had to mend everything in my "mending pile"...hem pants, patch pants, etc. I also had to do wrestling practice and matches for my son and piano lessons and I'm working on sketches for a book that are due this next week. I'm glad that super saturday is done though. I can now keep my head above water and see the shore...I'm almost done with the sketches. We've also been taking care of the new dog, Zoe. She's pretty easy but it is one more thing to watch out for in my life. My 6 year old is so happy to have her though that it makes it worth it. I think my husband will be glad when we can get away together in January so I can pay a little more attention to him instead of my list of to do's. Sorry honey!

Those stockings are so cute. That is something that I should do someday. I'll have to ask you for the pattern. When I was the Enrichment leader some of the women wanted a super Saturday, but the General Board has asked us not to do them because they are too stressful to plan. It sounds like you know that all too well. I know there are a lot of the wards, (especially the wards with younger people in them), that still have them in Spanish Fork. I really didn't want to plan one, so I was glad that the General Board decided that. If your ward tries to get you to plan another one....say, "No Way!!!!"
