Learning to Teach

Today I'm teaching at Church.

I'm supposed to be profound about this talk.

Somehow I consistently overestimate my ability to deal. 

I should probably start preparing the same day that I teach.

Then I might get it done in time for the next motnh!

Anywho.

I'm praying I have something to say.

    You haven't overestimated -- everything you need to say is already prepared and ready to go. Pray only that you be given the strength and serenity to step out of your own way and let the words come out. You won't even have to think about it; it's all in your heart. Trust that when you open your mouth, you'll be guided. And breathe. ;)

    I used to love to teach R.S. I loved the preparing. I love the rush I get when it's all over. The same holds true for talks in Sacrament Meeting.

    You are going to do just great!

    I'm sure you rocked it! You are an awesome writer so a talk should be easy peasy. Plus, aren't talks really for us to learn and grow anyway and if someone else learns something that's just icing on the cake? I'm sure you did great!

    Your FAVORITE anonymous friend (how sad it is that I had to look down to make sure I could spell anonymous right? *hehe*)

    I tend to get up there and in between the carefully planned things I have to say, out pop random comments, which thankfully most people find funny, but I am always worried that one of these days something will come out that is over the border to inappropriate or too much information. Giving talks has never been my favorite thing ;) I am sure it went much better than you think!

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...

Hippity Hop

I hope it doesn't matter that it's been a week or so since my post on her...but I do have a fabulous special needs daughter.   THIS   and   THAT   are my most recent musings on Special Needs parenting. I'm not sure what I think about either one. It's about being out in public.   Thanks to Sunday at Adventures in Extreme Parenthood   I can handle this blog hop on a week as crazy as this.  I'm excited to visit all these excellent blogs. Stay tuned next week though, for updates on Chickadee's G-tube surgery, moving and The Beast and it's sugar-free diet.  Thanks for playing along at home. I really couldn't do it without you all. Oh, and visit my Facebook Page to see how my weigh-in went this week for GAG.   **I just figured out that  Super Mommy to the Rescue  and Autism Learning Felt  are the sponsoring blogs.  Please follow them if you link up!
