Roland said he wanted to take Jenna to
Universal this weekend as it was/is a three-day weekend and Jenna will be
returning to school on Wednesday. What?!?!?? Never mind that we don’t have the money, but the idea of being in a car
for over 24 hour drive and just one day . . . no thank you. I don’t even like going down to Medford which
is less than two hours away. I think the
car is to blame for my misshaped body.
Seriously.
A friend suggested to me that I should
go to the Circles of Sand in Bandon found here. I
thought it started on Saturday, but the two days left for the summer schedule
were the first two days of September which didn’t start until today.
She also told me to go to the “Washed
Ashore Gallery” found here. Because
Roland was looking for a get-away, I figured Bandon was closer. We could go to the gallery on Saturday and
stay over night so that we could go to Circles in the Sand today – which we
did. So even though all the activities
and events we had come to visit in Bandon were free, the food and lodging was
not. I knew that we would overspend –
but not near the amount of debt had we gone to Universal (if my pretzel body
would have lived that long)
I texted the primary president to tell
her that I would be out of town and would not be there for church figuring
Danny had the lesson – but they like to have two instructors sit with each
class. The primary president called me
back right away to tell me I would be released today (I had made the request
two months ago) and that Danny would become her new secretary and that her former
secretary and her husband would be called to teach the Valiants and that they
would start today.
Whether I was released today or not, I
don’t know. I do know that I will now be able to attend Relief Society and
finally get to know the sisters who DON’T come to the activities. Meanwhile I have at least three posts to
share about just this weekend. I don’t
know when they will get written. I am
very tired right now and would like to go to bed.
