New Calling

I'm sad to be leaving my sweet little Sunbeams, but I'm excited about my new calling as the ward Provident Living Specialist! This is my first calling outside of Primary (other than being a Visiting Teaching Supervisor while I was also a Nursery worker, so I'm not sure if that counts). Ever. I'll be out of my element, for sure!

I still kind of see Relief Society as the place my mom goes, but not so much me. It's funny because I'm certainly old enough to go, yet I think it will take some time before I feel like that's where I'm supposed to be. What in the world am I going to do without a gaggle of kids vying for my attention!?

I don't have much of a food storage, & I'm terrible at rotating. I don't know much about emergency preparedness or survival should a serious emergency arise, so this opportunity is exciting to me. I'm always up for learning new & helpful things. I've been so involved with learning about the various uses of herbs & essential oils for the past decade, so now it's time to expand my brain a bit & gain more knowledge to share. Hopefully I can do that in a way that doesn't make me seem like a know-it-all (I fear I come across that way sometimes), & be able to get others excited about learning & implementing what they learn into their homes & families. :D

Exciting times!! :)

I'm sure you will do great! I love the Food Storage websites I have linked to my blog. Maybe those will help.

I too have been in Primary for a long time ... and dread the day I leave.

PS. You look amazing (on your other blog) Keep up the good work! I need to join you in your journey.

You'll do great!! I was excited to hear you called to that! I thought that it was a perfect fit! Don't worry about being a "know-it-all", I love talking to you because you have so much to share and its the same things I'm interested in....knowledge is a good thing!! You're going to do great!

We are so sad to lose such a wonderful and caring teacher! You are amazing in primary, but this is going to be an absolute awesome thing for you! We are in opposite shoes- I have always been in Relief Society and then I got thrown in Primary bliss. Good luck and I am sure I will be calling on you now and then for a little help! Luv ya!

I checked out your blog links & I'm in LOVE with foodstoragemadeeasy.net!! Diana (Self) Allen told me about that the other day & I am thrilled with this resource! I'll have to check the others out soon.

Thanks Corinne! :)
