It's Monday morning just after 7.  Sheila is off to work, but this time will only be working her 'regular' 3 1/2 hour shift so I had her drive and expect her back later this morning.  I hope that she is able to figure our how to best use the new set up and find the best way to do her job.  She has been fretting some about that.  Me, I have lots of work sitting on my desk from Friday and Saturday waiting for me.  But I chose to continue my day doing this and then 'that'.  My mind is full of names and faces and impressions and ideas from our first full block and Sunday at our 'new' ward.  Sorting it all out is taking some time and there is so much to learn and remember.  I am mostly thinking about people and names.  We feel a responsibility to learn it all as quickly as we can.  We are both quite serious about this calling.  We want to really do it well.  It will take all that we can give it and more, but we are excited to do it.  It will be a real challenge to do all we can do 'there' and still do what we have to do 'here', because none of the 'here' is going away.  So, naturally, we feel overwhelmed, but in the most positive of ways.  I feel that we have felt direction and inspiration in our preparation for and now in this calling.  We find it hard to explain the specifics.  Its like 'you have to be there', but we hope to be able to share the power of what we are encountering, especially as our time goes on and we actually get better at doing what we will do.
