Someone is playing a joke on us

Last Saturday James received a phone call from a member of the bishopric. These types of Saturday night phone calls usually result in a talk, a calling or giving the prayer in Sacrament the next day. My vote was on the prayer since we had spoken less than a year before and had our callings less than a year. When James got off the phone he said "Brother Felt wants to meet with us" to which I jokingly replied "I bet you are getting a stake calling and they are releasing me ha ha ha" (such the supportive wife I know).

James looked at me and while smiling said that he knew what it was for and that I had to guess what it was. Now this is a little game James likes to play with me because I am not patient enough to wait for the news. After much begging for him to spill the beans, FINALLY he gave in and told me we were both getting released, and were being called into.....Nursery. The next day were were released and sustained.

Wish us luck, a lot of it.

I am riding my bike from now on

Last Saturday we went to Santa Maria to get gas and do our usual errands. We were met at the gas station by this lovely sign. That is right folks, 4 bucks a gallon. James was very sad, as you can see!

Thanks to gas prices we are trying to save money in other ways, like Shampoo for instance! Since I turned 23 a couple weeks ago, I have been feeling like a new, older person. It kind of crept up on me, but I feel like an adult now! A new me deserved a new hairdo. Nine inches later and I think I have achieved that. Not only do I have a great/short new look but a cancer patient gets a new wig. A win-win I think.
