On My Mind Monday 7

First before what's on my mind. the room. All we have left is color and carpet. We primered and painted the ceilings and closet. So close, i can already picture what it will look like. We won't work on it tonight, i want to take the kids to the night out against crime at the rec center. But, tomorrow we will put the color on, and Wed. i will haul the kids with me to YW so DH can put in the carpet.


I want to talk "Circle of Sisters" First off. i have to say, I really really liked visiting teaching. What i didn't like was not having a partner that would initiate, plan a lesson, or call the sisters on our list, for the past 2+ years. So, it didn't get done as often as I'd like. (but, yes, every month it didn't get done, I would feel guilty) But i still loved it. And i loved a new list and companion every 6 months, so i could get to know the sisters in the ward. Especially since i have been in Primary or YW since I've lived in this ward. I'm not sure how i feel about this "circle" thing they started. They had me paired with my presidency first, and i Love them, but i see them 2 times a week already. And being in Primary and YW's you feel secluded anyway. So now on my new list, i am paired up with 3 other sisters, who have either 17 yr olds and older, or are done raising kids. I can hear the crickets chirping already. I know these women already, and it'll be fine, i can have a conversation with any of them. But my issue here is this. I'm the head of the circle. I don't want to be in charge of more stuff. I don't want to be chief, i want to be Indian. Please.... It's my turn to be asked to do things.
So, not a complaint. Just On My Mind.
Over and out

In our group we rotate who is to lead that month. Mai Ling got tired of heading things up too. You might suggest that in your circle. It's nice that way cause it only comes around like twice a year for me. Ya, I can handle that.
