Oh boy. Clearly, I am crazy..but I guessed that! Cube as big as a house! Made of shiny multicoloured wipe-to-clean vinyl in primary colours. Leaning on the cube a well worn ladder, handmade of well-worn wood. A very cubby, low to the ground, and looking extremely pleased with itself and a bit rebellious, Shetland pony with saddle and bridle but these are not attached to anything. The flowers are in the mane of the pony. My friends are my children? Could be! The storm is over head but nothing to worry about and is over quickly. (This gives me hope. My computer model died today!) thanks so much! This was really fun!

I know how you feel! I once found myself saying to a smoking student, You are so beautiful. Why are you smoking that thing? I have no idea where those words came from.

Have you ever had a tip from an employee that was helpful? For example, in the Canadian postal service, they would offer 'fragile' stickers for parcels but no appropriate handling was available. In fact workers sorted parcels by throwing them into bins. Sometimes you learn things at work that you wish the public knew. For example, my sister worked in a restaurant where they did not wash the vegetables used in the salad. What I learned while teaching. Some people need to study many more hours than others to get the same grades. Highlighting and reading are often ineffective. It is a good idea to look at job listings years before you want a job. You might need something that takes time to acquire or may not be possible to get in order to meet your career goals, eg certain courses, high grades in certain courses, certain types of job experience that you can only get by knowing someone in the field. Sometimes, the job has some drawbacks you do not know about. My massage therapist tells me that few people work full time in the field for more than a decade because those who work full time get Heath problems. Do you have any tips to share?

We are happy for you!

Am female, must not watch soccer! Heart flutters! Cute men running around in shorts! Not enough close ups in that game. Zero in on the cutest players!

Mesh can be a bit rough on the skin. I don't use fabric softener which may explain the roughness. I have a vague idea that you do not use fabric softener on garments but I think I may be getting confused with a type of long underwear that used to be popular for cross country skiing! As a convert I am perpetually confused. I think that I will open a new topic and ask about fabric softener.

Have you tried mesh garments? I have the same work wardrobe. It is sultry here in the summer.

Yes, I see what you mean! What a difference the gospel makes in our lives. Thank you for this insight.

This is a really powerful way to teach the lesson! I am so sorry this happened to you. Must have been really scary. Thanks so much. Boy, you guys have really saved my life here. Thanks a million!

Thank you. You are awesome!

Ummm. Okay... I MUST know. How does scripture study and prayer affect how you do the laundry. Cone on, you have to tell!

Wow! This is pure gold. Many thanks!

Further to above, the women that I teach are overwhelmed by poverty, church callings and family responsibilities. If you can walk and talk, you have a calling here. (Any of the 'I don't have a calling' crowd want to move here?). The question I am thrashing around is, 'What would one like to see change in the lives of those who hear this talk'? This is one of the general conference teaching tips from 'Teaching No Greater Call'.

Do you teach conference talks in Relief Society or Priesthood? This is my calling and I am finding it tough. We are doing Bro Uchdorf's 'He will place you on your shoulders and carry you home'. I am trying to think of a way to have an activity for this talk...and the only one I can think of is...why would the Stake assign this talk? Which is a bit of a 'beats me!' cop out. I wish I could post a link to the talk. I will try again later to do so. The only reason that I can think of to give this talk is that someone in RS may have an inactive friend or relative so thr RS sister should not give up or be discouraged about the friend/relative's eventual return. Maybe I could have the sisters think about a time when they felt discouraged and felt like giving up but did not, what brought them back? But maybe this approach is too negative? We might all give up! Any suggestions welcome! Normally, I feel discouraged when I read the talk that I need to teach. I list to the talk over and over in the car until I finally get an idea. Prayer of course helps but I usually need to ponder on my own as a first step. This talk has me really puzzled.

Cover the drain with a plug?

A kettle full of water and 1/4 cup of detergent. Detergent goes first.

Missionary work! For sure!

Dish washing detergent

Thanks! Did not know about the clogged toilets. Do you use boiling water on clogged toilets too?

Very happy for them!

I want to go now! Where is my celestial rocket! Seriously though, you can be very wonderful and still be stuck terrestrially speaking. Look at the those general authorities. Not one of them or their wives has been translated lately.

Hmm...okayyyy. I can sort of see what you mean....in the end righteousness always wins...but in the meantime, the unrighteous can make life pretty uncomfortable

Thank you for explaining! Major brow furrowing going on here!

Hmm. Not convinced. How about Alma and his people under the unrighteous dominion of Amulon? https://www.lds.org/scriptures/bofm/mosiah/24?lang=eng

Impact of US politics on the rest of the world. Rest of the World speaking! We often wish we could vote for the US president as he/her will influence our life so much! We want a vote!
