Over

We had ward conference yesterday and all last week. It is finally over. Not that it was a bad thing but there is always extra pressure when the stake is there. We did the things that we always do but one wonders if it is the right thing or how are we doing or whatever. Anyway we had a great meeting yesterday and I felt spiritually renewed and our bishop gave us all a blessing. It was wonderful. There are challenges in our ward, there are people without work, with health problems but all in all, things are going well. I am so embarassed. I called my oldest daughter to bust he chops that she hadn't called in a while and she stated that she thought that we would call for our oldest granddaughter's birthday on the 4th! Yes, I am a crappy grandfather. I have now put birthdays in my phone (aka my brain) and now, hopefully, I won't have to endure that embarassment again. Of course, the rule as always is, dad is an.... We also changed time; we "sprang forward" already. This change is always hard on me. I have been up and worried about getting up on time since ab out 3 the new time. I slept off an on, checking my brain (phone) for the time, not wanting the alarm to go off and disturb my wife so I am already tired. It will take a while to adjust but I did get my ride in and it was a good one. I am almost done dripping. Not that I went less time but I had to re-start the computer a couple of times so I had to sit around waiting for it to boot so I got to cool off a bit. My youngest son has work today at my work, installing soap dispensers and perhaps towel and tissue as well later this week. He is so excited for his mission, it is contagious. I remember that time in my life. It was a great time but I sure do enjoy the time I am in right now. I am glad that my younger days are behind me but I don't want this time to quite be over.
