A little break ;)

Last week I was released from the YW presidency. Even though I was technically released, I was in charge of the YM/YW activity last Tuesday. But now I'm officially on break ;) The bishop said it was going to be a pretty short break so I'm just waiting to see what the next adventure will be.

YW was fun - I am really going to miss the girls. But I gotta tell ya - that is one time consuming calling! RS presidency was stressful to be sure - lots of responsibility. But YW presidency has got to be the most time consuming calling a woman can have in a ward. To make it just a tad more difficult, Dan's callings (Exec. Secretary and now High Council) always seemed to conflict with mine as far as meetings, etc. So I was always the lucky one who took Stephen to activities, meetings, class, etc. It wasn't so bad when he was little - but lately it's been a little hairy.

It's been a long, long while since I have been callingless. This morning was so nice. Poor Dan has his very early morning meetings but Stephen and I got up at around 8 and had a very leisurely morning. No meetings for me, no lessons to prepare, no handouts to make, no girls to call - I could do what I wanted. So I sat down at the computer and caught up on reading family and friend blogs. Then we went to church at 11 - I'm sure everyone was shocked that we walked in before the opening song ;) After sacrament meeting I took Stephen to nursery - since he is still a month away from being "official" and since I had no other responsibilities, I stayed with him.

So my whole afternoon is open - no BYC or other meetings, no weekly YW e-mail newsletter to write, no handouts to run around to girls who weren't at church. I'm really loving this break! I think I'm going to take a nap and then, who knows . . .
