I was just commenting to Cathyjo how it boggles my mind that you can make such great posts every day.... and then I hop over to say hello to you and you start with how much you love posting every morning. I have trouble coming up with ideas for 1 post a week... and I am sure people get tired of me posting about family all the time. You are a wonder dear Marie!

Have you thought of taking your computer to RS and setting it up on a LCD projector so all the sisters could see the different web sites that could help them. You could go through the process with them and show them Mormon.org and LDS.org. We have a LCD projector in our stake. I would think you do too. The sisters could watch what you are doing on the computer like a movie on a big screen. You could even make a powerpoint presentation if you wanted too. That is what I did when I gave the WICC presentation.

I must run. I am co chairman of the WICC scholarship committee and I have to make a presentation at WICC luncheon today. Have a great week. I am sure you will do well with the lessons you give. Hugs, Lura

Just LOVE these posts of yours Marie! Those cake pops are so sweet... as are all the pretty decorations and ideas! The newest E. Berg book sounds ever so good. It's not at our library yet, so will have to wait. I had my pink Hello Kitty jim jams this morning--yes, Hello Kitty. ;o) That Blackberry Cobbler is making my mouth water...*sigh*... Last night I made your recipe for Roasted Tomato soup--it's a winter staple at our house. Hope your knee feels better. Sounds like you've got a lot on this week. Let me know if you still have time to chat later. HAPPY DAY to you all there :o) ((LOVE & BIG HUGS))

There is a web site called Creative Ladies Ministries that has a lot of good ideas -- I just happened upon it years ago when looking for a little inspiration of my own. http://www.juliabettencourt.com/. Maybe it will give you an idea or two. Hope your Tuesday is a terrific one!

Love should be our talk and our walk...I love that! I think I'll put it on my bulletin board so I can be reminded every day at my desk! Blessings, Marlend

Could you have the group brainstorm ideas for the relief society lesson? You offer a scenario and they try to come up with an answer. Or better yet, they draw scenarios. You are ready with hints/suggestions. Some humor injected would be good. Maybe a matching game? Pull a scenario out of one bucket & an answer/resource out of another and see how they line up? Perhaps their matches would include some humorous ones? Until you set them straight of course. ;)

As always a great start to the monring reading your lovely words Marie. I am sure the groomer will be ok about you trying someone else. I did that with Dee laterly and had someone come to the house to do him...it was so much easier..
Very wet down here this morning, I have bible study here at 10.30 I believe we might have another 2 joining us. I will have to be putting hooks in the ceiling to hang folks up by !!!our wonderful minister Rachel is great but she is a BIG lady and takes up quite a bit of space LOL
Have a nice day, love to Todd and special pat for Mitzie
Love Sybil xx
