Tonight when we returned from our outing Big B noticed that someone had left a plate of goodies on our doorstep. He was quickly disappointed to notice that the note on top was addressed to me. He handed me the plate and went about unloading the kiddos from the car. I went into the house eager to find out who the plate of goodies was from. As I was undoing the card I felt something crawling on me, I ignored it and continued with the card..."we want to thank you for all you"....OUCH!! Something bit me I looked down and there was a handful of ants crawling on my hand! I placed the plate down to try to get the ants off before my hand was devoured, only to realize that the plate was swarming with ants that were now making a bee line to my kitchen! I grabbed a paper towel and started smashing the little monsters but I quickly realized I was outnumbered....so I ran the plate to Big B outside and continued to squish and destroy! Big B is outside trying to see if any of the yummy mint brownies that were on the plate can be saved...I guess a little extra protein never hurts (GAG!!). I still am having the creepy sensation that bugs are crawling on me....even though they are not....I hate that! Oh well, the thought was nice. See I told you there is a rhyme and reason for my blog being called 98 percent chaos.
PS. On a side note the card was from the Primary President of our old ward...the funny part was my name was spelled differently on the outside and inside of the card....and neither were right! We lived in our last ward nearly 8 years and only a handful of people ever learned how to say my name right! Even after being told a million times.....I don't mind....but it drove Big B and my mom nuts!! I used to joke that I never really got called to any of my callings because the person's name that was called for the position was obviously not me! I wonder if my new ward will have the same problem??

Ants....yuck. That stinks. We have a lady in our ward named Sis. Butler. Well one Stake Conference a few years ago, they called her to the Stake Primary Presidency. The Stake President asked everyone to sustain....wait for it.....yep.....Sis. Butter. Not Butler. We thought that was pretty funny. To top it off this member of the Stake Presidency that announced her name used to be in her ward.
Anyway...hopefully soon you'll have a much better ward. At least one that can get your name right.
