I'm moving the list of places we've served to a post. We have now been lucky enough to serve almost everywhere in Nauvoo! What an experience. I even got to make a couple of horseshoes. Of course I've never seen the horse that could wear them! It would be a sad horse. But it was fun making the shoes.
It's now time to begin practices for "Sunset by the Mississippi". We began last week and everyone has been great. This is going to be a fun, interesting calling. Ron is still in the sites during the days and helping me with practices at night. My days are now spent in the Nauvoo Productions office finding and copying music and working out schedules and other "to be determined duties". We're in charge of the annual mission talent show which will be Monday Jan. 25. Elder and Sister Camp, the new Directors of Nauvoo Productions. will be here for the talent show/auditions for Sunset and then they're staying for 2 weeks. I'm so excited for them to get here. We'll be able to go over the Sunset show and decide which numbers should be in it this summer. We've been practicing the ones we know are staying in the line up.
So, my days are very different now. This week I will have 2 more days of baking gingerbread cookies then we will be cleaning up the kitchen and putting away the surghum. And no more sites for me and also, now I have a bigger decision to make in the morning, since I will no longer be wearing site dresses. Before it was "Hmmmmmmmm, blue one or brown one? White apron or colored apron" Now I have to think about what to wear. Also, I will miss my apron, I love the pockets! It was like having 2 mini purses with me at all times. Aprons are an underused gem! Another change is that our days perfoming in "Rendezvous" are about over since our evenings will be spent with Sunset. I guess this means I could cut my hair if I want to. It's longer than it's been since about Jr. High. On the nights we do Rendezvous I have to put it in a bun so I've let it grow. I had a scary moment the other day. I was wearing my blue site dress with my white bib apron and a little white collar. I was running out the door and caught sight of myself in a mirror. It was terrible. I thought, "If I had a head band I would look like a dumpy, chubby, REALLY over the hill Alice in Wonderland!!!
...and it's time for District Meetings ... I'd hate to be late for a very important date! That's all for tonight.
