Seriously, I'm a blog slacker!

Ok, so my dad sent this to me today and I really liked it:


Weekend Recap:
Saturday morning: Helped with Make a Difference Day. Oversaw 30+ people and made 2000+ cards for Meals on Wheels and other organizations. That was a lot of fun! It was held at the Stake Center but is for the entire city/community. I have to say that I was a little disappointed that out of the 100+ people there, there were only about 10 from the stake. Everyone else was from other organizations outside the church...anyway...

Sunday morning: Primary Program-went well overall! Made a mental note next year to figure out before hand what size stool each class needs to stand on so that the older kids don't have to stand around the stool because it was too high, and to make sure the younger kids don't get the shorter stool when they needed the tallest. All you could see was there hair. Sorry parents! I tried my best!

All a matter of perspective...

Lately at work it's been crazy! So crazy in fact that I had very harsh words with a co-worker today... (It's ok, it was justified. And if you know me, you know it takes a very LARGE amount of anything to make me mad. I pretty much NEVER get mad...) So I've been in my own little funk of life....you know, the I don't like my job, and why am I spending 2 1/2 hours everyday driving to and from my job... Today put everything in perspective. I am SOOO thankful for everything I have!

My good friend and co-worker was diagnosed with breast cancer about 3 weeks ago. She took it very well and was actually looking forward to a breast reduction. Then the rest of her testing came back... the cancer had spread to the lymph nodes. That moved the cancer from Stage 1 to Stage 3 in a matter of a week and a half. Once the cancer moves into the lymph nodes it can spread a lot easier because it's now in the blood stream. Yesterday she got some more test results back, and they are pretty sure that the cancer has spread to her liver. That moves the cancer to Stage 4. There is NO Stage 5 cancer! I just feel awful. She just got divorced a few months ago and shares custody of her 4 year old daughter with her ex-husband... Then on top of everything this happens. I feel so helpless, like there's nothing I can do.

Anyway, sorry for such a sad post, I just felt like I needed to get that out! I'm so thankful for the perspective of the gospel! I am super thankful for the healthy body I have, even when it aches after I go running! I promise I'll try to post more, I just feel like our little family is pretty boring right now!
