Life has been crazy busy with going to Ohio for two weeks, Alan changing jobs and then traveling for said new job a bunch, preschool, but especially Young Womens and a wedding.
Back in April, I was called to be the 1st counselor in YW and it has been kicking my butt ever since. I loved being the secretary in YW (my old calling) - such a cush calling and no real responsibility plus it is detail and computer oriented (right up my alley). This new calling is so different. Planning activities, dealing with teenage problems (and it is drama all the time), lessons, having my advisor moving, etc. Plus for a while there, Alan was YM 1st counselor so both of us had to be at church on Tuesdays - can we say coordination nightmare. So anyways, for the last few weeks, I have been working on the etiquette dinner with Jenni. A fun activity but a lot of info to deal with. Jenni did the invitation (totally cute) and coordinating the participates. I was in charge of the handout and the quiz. Lots of info and unfortunately the dinner is on Tuesday but I am gone this weekend.

Yes, I am leaving in an hour to go to LA for a friend/co-worker's wedding. 2 ex co-workers and I are going together - no husbands, no kids. Super excited. It is at the Ritz in Marina del Rey. I will have to post pics when I get back. Tonight is a Chinese banquet and then Saturday night is the wedding. So fancy (so for me, a little stressful finding the right outfits and accessories). So after 7 or so dresses bought and 6 returned, this is what I am wearing to the wedding itself (in brown):
Not sure what I am wearing tonight since dress code is "spiffy sportswear". Not sure what that means or how to dress. What do you think...trouser jeans okay with heels?
Have a good weekend all!
