I did a long slow 15 miles and had a 1:50 time. That my friends is a 7:27 average. My last mile I was paced by my bishop who told me if I could run 12 mph next to his suv he wouldnt put me in the bishopric.  I held it for about .8 miles and that was all I could do.  I was on my 14th mile by the way.  I begged for mercy and he told me he'd think about it. I told him I was comfortable at teaching primary kids which I think is a wrong answer for bishop talk.  Your suppose to say challenging not comfortable.  Shoot Im busted. Ill let you know what comes of this.

If he calls me into an interview Im going to challenge his vehicle. Ill ask for a calibration test!

LOL He is going to sentence you to nursery. Just remember... depending on the age of the primary children you teach, you can bring snacks :o). That always made my husband happy when we taught the sunbeams.

Yes Camille, there you go! I wonder if I could sneak them in on fast sunday? hum, interesting. It was funny, he wouldnt let anyone pass him through the subdivision. I had a line of a couple of vehicles behind him which I felt guilty but it was funny. I should have got sasha's bungy and strapped it on his Denali! lol

What is a bishopric?

Seriously, is this a mormon thing? I have not ever heard this term.

From walter on Tue, Sep 09, 2008 at 23:01:18

Yeah, its assistants to the bishop. There are two of them and together they call it a bishopric.

No bagging on Primary - It is the place to be. Teaching Sunbeams is my favorite! I love them, you learn all kinds of juicy things and you get snacks, play games and color! I miss those days.

From walter on Tue, Sep 09, 2008 at 23:09:59

Yeah Jody, most of them are way smarter about religion then me so I just have them teach me. lol
