Busy

I like being busy. It seems since my new calling, things have become even busier for our family. I am out doing visits 1-2 nights a week, I have Rotary, we had swimming and now choir, dates, other work obligations, other church obligations, life, etc., it just seems like life is getting busier. I thought it would slow down somewhat with only 1 child still at home but it seems to have become busier. I can't imagine being this busy with 4, 5, or 6 kids at home, but when I think back on the time I was in the bishopric in Chula Vista, I was even busier but it just seems that I am now. I guess old age has something to do with that... I have sales meeting in the morning and I think I am ready for it. In fact, I have been mostly ready with the Power Point for about 2 weeks, a new record for me. I am usually working on it the night before until late. Things are going smoothly at work. I had a great day with my top sales guy. We haven't worked together that much in the past, he has asked me to do some trainings for him and things like that but he asked me to work with him yesterday. Of course we had a lunch that he wanted me to pay but I felt "validated" by him that I bring something of value to the sales team and to him. He also expressed that he has enjoyed the sales meetings that I have organized, at least the part I cover. I appreciated that. Sometimes I am not sure if what I do makes a difference or not but it seems to do so. Time will tell I guess. My boss dropped off his twin boys at the MTC yesterday. I would imagine that he and his wife are wrecks now and for the next couple of days but I can't wait until we take our son there. He expresses his desire to be there now. I just pray that he stays excited and lives worthy to go. Life is good and I like it when I am busy.
