A couple weeks ago, Patty Crane, YW second councilor, asked me if I would host the YW at my house for a progressive lesson. Three houses, three different lessons. I knew this week would be crazy because of the party tomorrow but I really wanted to do it. She asked me to do a lesson on light, maybe using photography and Christmas. I thought about it, and had a few ideas. Then a week ago she told me that they have to sing in church, and so they needed a house to practice in, so scratch the lesson and just let them in to practice. Wonderful!!! Way less stress. I think at that moment I didn't think about it again.
I spent the entire day yesterday trying to find battery powered Christmas lights for the party. I was running around the entire day. The only time I was home was to let the produce guy into my house with all the produce I need for the party. I came home around 5:30 (just in time to feed Aaron and Carter before they went to YM) with KFC, fed my family and was off again to see if Target had the lights. They were my last chance. I was bent down looking at the lights, and set my phone on the shelf. Then walked away, leaving my phone. Meanwhile, the YW and Aaron and Lani and Skye are all trying to get ahold of me because the YW are at my destroyed house for the activity. Only my girls were home. After checking out and realizing I didn't have my phone I went back to the lights, it was gone. I asked every worker, nobody had seen it. I went to Customer Service and she didn't have it. She took my name, number and description of the phone and I went to leave. Then I saw my phone in a mans hand! He worked there and was bringing it to CS. He said you are really popular it has been ringing like crazy. I puffed up my chest and said yes I am. Then the horror set in. I had missed calls from everyone. Texts from everyone. I called Aaron. "Relax I am ok." He them told me what I had forgotten. The tears started and I was so embarrassed. Everything worked out ok. But I can't believe I did that. I am such a blonde.
Oh yes, I did get my lights!!! Hooray!!!

Maybe it's from all the traveling back and forth and balancing your busy life. That makes me super forgetful and I have done some embarassing things because of it. I like to blame it on sleep deprivation as I don't the have beautiful blonde hair to blame it on!
