Pondering

I had a visit from the Relief Society presidency of our new ward a couple of days ago. We had a nice little chat, and afterwards the president asked if I was prepared to be a visiting teacher. I have to wonder . . . what would happen if I'd told her no?

She would have prepared you :)

I also have to wonder: how much preparation does one need to be a visiting teacher?

well??? are you? i'm dying to know.

other things i am dying to know: did you move? why are you in a new ward?

and, what does it mean when someone says "God-forsaken right"?

Amber, an excellent question. It reminds me of the time I asked Dad what the difference was between visiting teachers and home teachers. He said, "Visiting teachers wear bras." Ahh, those fatherly pearls of wisdom.

Miriam, we didn't move, we just got booted out of the student ward. Our first impression of the family ward was that there are a lot of old people. :) I really like it so far, though.

God-forsaken right . . . I'll have to ponder that one!

maybe she meant, "are you ready to go through her cupboards when she's not looking to make sure she has enough food?"

Buwahahaha! I'd forgotten about that. Yes, that requires extensive preparation. You must either be very fast and sneaky, or blatant and oblivious to other peoples' embarrassment.
