The Axe


Blessed day of peace and rest. Mr. Mormon got the axe from the Bishopric! 

HAAAAAAALLELUJAH!
HAAAAAAALLELUJAH!

Now, I am top banana in this monkey palace. :)

Lots of folks had such nice things to say to Mr. Mormon on Sunday and he was thanked for his service. The Primary President broke down crying several times when he was telling her how nice it was to have served with her. I think they've been through so many trials together, and it was an emotional time for her to think she has someone new to break in.

Now, he's back off to the clerk's quorum, where he is happy, un-stressed, and not in charge of Cub Scouts, Deacons, Primary, the library, Activities Committee, 11-Year-Old Scouts...oh he is doing the happy dance of joy!

Having a member of the Bishopric married to the Relief Society President was insane.  But it did have some perks that I will miss.  Sitting next to him in meetings was nice...but sitting next to him in sacrament will be nicer.  We still won't drive together to church, so we're continuing our 9 year separation that way - but he will no longer be at church on Sundays for 8 hours and on Wednesday nights and most Saturdays.....AT ALL!  He has a tricked out-retro styling office to hide from Sunday School in and I have a less-stressed, happy hubby.  Life is good!!

The axe sometimes is a good thing, unless you're a cow or pig or chicken. Then it's bad. Very bad.

I am glad to hear that Mr. Mormon is once again free from lots of stress. That is a good thing. The good thing for you Mama is that you now don't have to get him a birthday gift. God gave him one for all of you!!

Rejoice!!!! God is good!

Secondly - is this a good thing?? How does one get AXED?? Did he ask to be de-bishoped??

Thirdly ( cuz you have to have a 3rd point ) good for you guys that you get more time together and have less stress!! You guys have proven your dedication to your marriage, family, church and community. You rock!
