A Five Minute Moment ~

Around here we write for five minutes flat on Fridays.
We finger paint with words. We try to remember what it was like to just write without worrying if it’s just right or not.
Want to play Five Minute Friday? It’s easy!

1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking
2. Link back here and invite others to join in. http://thegypsymama.com/2012/03/five-minute-friday-
3. Meet & encourage someone who linked up before you.

OK, are you ready? Give us your best five minutes on:Loud

OK, I have five minutes to tell you what is on my mind right now. I have been hurrying and scurrying all day long and now I don't have time to do a post. I wanted to do one of the Simple Woman's Daybook post because I like to do those once in a while. Perhaps, I will try doing this instead. However, I tend to be very wordy so I don't know if this can work for me. This evening  I have been busy making up my temple shift assignments for the 10 new sisters I am training. I got them all put together and forgot one of the sisters so that put a kink in the plan. Tomorrow I start our shift at 3:30 am. I want to wear my pedometer to see how many steps I take. I will probably not sit much at all. I have to be at certain areas at different times and on top of that I always meet with each of the sisters I am working with for 10 to 20 minutes to see how they are doing. Our shift ends at 11 am and I enjoy the moments of the day. I love the work and the sisters I am working with so I am always happy being in the temple; doing the Lord's work. I also may be losing weight by all the walking; that could be a plus. The most important element is that I don't feel sleepy all morning because I am too busy. I hate that feeling of being so tired that I  can't hardly stand it. Well, I am looking forward to a good nights sleep. Probably not enough hours but I will take what I can get. So good night to all of my wonderful Blogging friends. I love you much!
PS.Oops, I think I was suppose to write about the word loud. So this is my loud and noisy day.

Loved this Leann! A little snippet into your busy day! I would love to work at the Temple. We have a long ways to go to get to the Temple here. It is over 100 miles away and with the cost of petrol right now (the equivalent of about $8.88 American a gallon) and having to live on a fixed income, we are struggling. We don't get there as often as we would like to for sure. Have a lovely weekend! xxoo

What a blessing to spend those hours in your temple. I do not know much about the Mormon faith but I enjoy learning about it thru your blog. Be blessed my friend.

I loved being a Trainer! It was the most fun job because you got to know the sisters so well. I also love the early morning shift. Our temple is closed right now for remodeling. I go to other temples at least once a week, but it's not the same as working there. I'll be thinking of you each week and wishing it was me, until our temple is open again.

So in other words, I should read your "five minutes" in a really loud voice?

heehee

Such a busy lady you are, LeAnn. I so admire your dedication to your Temple work. It is not easy. Our Redlands Temple has such a hard time getting people to work in the Temple and those that do have to clean the Temple after they work. It is not for the faint of heart. I could never do it because I just don't have the stamina. It is a good hours drive for us to which makes it even harder. I do admire all you do.

I'm looking forward to the time in my life I can work in the temple. I look forward to that like going on a mission. Good work to be busy with. Do you think that's what the Celestial kingdom will be like? So busy enjoying our good works and never tiring? Hope so.
