It is just before 8 a.m. and my mind is already racing. I think it's a result of going to bed with a migraine. Anyway, here they are...
I woke up and turned on the news, as I always do, and as I did, I reflected on how much more aware I am of events happening in Maryland and Spain, now that I have missionaries serving there. For example, did you know Michael Phelps is from Baltimore and is going back there to train after the Olympics? Yup. I told Rob to go tract him out. And then this morning I saw this sad report of the plane crash in Madrid. The plane was full of families on their way to vacation in the Canary Islands (where Mom and Dad are). So very sad...
I found this in my Meridian Magazine this morning and, for some reason, it really struck a chord with me. I have always liked Michael Medved and really respected him for his moral values and his fair treatment of Mormons, but now I REALLY respect him. Check it out!
Mormons Exposed - The Mormon Conspiracy
Lastly, I am pretty stressed out today because it is Back to School night and I am going to have to man the membership table and the t-shirt sales table because the other "volunteers" have opted to visit the classrooms with their children. I would love that luxury, too! This is the downside of being in charge, I guess. I just wish parents would take their responsibilities seriously. I mean--how many times have I been left at the Book Fair until 10 at night with over a thousand dollars in the till--alone!!!
But then there is the glory and the rights to complain vociferously (vocabulary word of the day). I had to include this last thing because I am just keeping it real... (I have adopted this as my new catch-phrase, borrowed from a fun blog I read)
