Little Red Hen

Beware...this post will contain whining, and complaining...

This afternoon the Elders Quorum was supposed to clean the church...no big deal right. Well a few weeks ago a member of the Stake RS called and asked Aaron if the Elders Quorum could also take down the chairs and tables for the stake event...okay, not thrilled, but okay. So Sunday Aaron told his quorum that this would be happening this Sat at 2. Aaron had a big test this morning and was kind of consumed with life that he didn't call to confirm that anyone else was going to be there. Needless to say we were the only ones to show up.

No big deal. Well, the whole time I just kept thinking there were about 80 women (I didn't go because Aaron had his test this morning and I just didn't get a babysitter so I actually don't know how many were there) here this morning why couldn't they put away their things? There were chairs in all the rooms that we had to put away, tables misplaced, podium in the chapel blah blah blah. Not that big of a deal but kind of time consuming for two people (and three helpers).

What really got me was a sign in the member custodial room that said, "to the cleaning crew on Saturday, the fridge really needs to be cleaned out it is really gross" Okay then do it yourself! I don't know when the last time I cleaned out my fridge and if it is bothering you that badly do it yourself...whew sorry about this downer post.

It really wasn't that bad. We were going to clean the church anyway and I know that it needs to get done and the girls really helped a lot! I think it is good for them (and us) to help out every once and awhile. I just don't like feeling like a slave to personal whims.

If you are still reading you are a trouper! I will have a better post next time!
