My post on the angels blog

I couldn't decide if I was going to share with all of you my post on the angel blog. Well, what the heck here it is, hopefully your feelings for me won't change! :)

Okay, I am going to reveal something that is a little embarrassing but that has made my husband and I laugh today. After this last week of struggling so bad with the loss of Kamber the laugh was much needed, even though it was at my expense.

I have always done ditsy things throughout my life but, I have felt that I am pretty responsible and smart. I enjoy making people laugh and pretty willing to laugh at myself when I do dumb things. I feel I am a kind person and would do most anything to cheer someone else up. I do have to say since Kamber has died I have become very air headed. I do dumb things all the time. I just can't seem to get my life in order and the easy things sometimes are so hard for me to do. I am LOOSING MY MIND! I have to admit shortly after Ethan and I were married that I mailed my check book. Yeah, you heard me right, my check book. I had all my mail in one hand and my check book was in that same hand since I had just wrote my last bill while I was in the car. Now this was a box that was just down the street, not at a post office, just an area that you can pull in and mail since the nearest post office was far. So I had to wait till 5:00 which was a couple hours away for the mail man to come and pick up the mail. Well of course he was running behind, then I found out that he couldn't just give me my check book I had to meet him at the post office before he could give it back to me. It was such a process but, to make a long story short I got it back and was late for my evening college class.

So now that I have revealed the dumbest thing I have done, may be this won't seem so bad. We were given a calling about a month after Kamber died, bishop thought it would be a good idea to make Ethan and I the activities leaders in our ward and only give us two other couples to help. Since I am an airhead I was afraid that he might regret that decision later, but I excepted. I almost missed my first ward council meeting until a member of the bishopric called me a half hour into the meeting to ask if I was coming. I threw clothes on and raced down to the church feeling like a retard! The next dumb thing I have done is show up for ward council today a week early and interrupt a bishopric meeting. Yeah, what a nerd :) Then when I got home I told my husband and he just laughed but, what really got him rolling was, I told him that I had remembered when Bro. Brodero called us earlier this week to set up tithing settlement and that I had told him something really dumb. He set up our meeting at 1:10 and our ward meets at 2:30. I told Bro. Brodero to remind me about our tithing settlement at church because I am an air head and will probably forget. Really, Really? I can't believe I said that! I had wondered why he hesitated when he said suuurrre... That's because I am retarded, church is a hour and a half later than our tithing settlement. Ha Ha Ha. That really makes sense! You can laugh, we sure did. I just wonder what the bishopric thinks that they got themselves into by calling me to this leadership calling. Hopefully it has given them a lot of laughs!
Love to all,
