48 hour film competition

May 20, 2009
This last weekend was crazy busy with very little sleep, if any. But I did get to have a sleepover at my house, which hasn't happened since High School...or for a REALLY REALLY LONG TIME!

The boys, my hubby & his friend D, entered into a 48hour film competition that started on the 15th of May. At that time they received what their Genre was, a line that had to be included, and a prop that also had to be in the film and the film was supposed to be 4 - 7 minutes long.

Friday night was spent writing the script and getting filming ideas, Saturday was the start of filming. Mind you after we found people to be actors for it and arranging schedules so people would be available. We had our friend N help with the filming, but he also had prior arrangements so he wasn't able to be there all day. Luckily for us we were completed with filming that afternoon, then the fun part came in...the editing and putting the pieces together, adding sound, voice overs, etc.

Oh, and only one computer that is capable of doing all of that. So sadly the rest was up to hubby. Which I think he did a wonderful job of putting the pieces together with what he had. So Saturday night became Sunday and we attempted to complete all our obligations between completing project, church, home teaching, meetings, family parties, and getting this turned in; it was a very long weekend.

Once I figure out how to post video's on here it'll be up.

Sometimes I really frustrate myself.

Recently I was called to be a Young Womans advisor, along with relief society teacher, oh and don't forget half of the ward activities chairman. Lovely hubby is the other half.

SO with the addition of yw I have the constant desire, urgh, have to moments, whatever you want to call it. But I just HAVE to reorganize my binder that has all my crap in it for church. In doing so I just HAVE to relabel the tabs.

Yet after relabeling, reorganizing, I feel so much better. Its only taken me a couple of weeks to do things, but I didn't have any information for yw until this week. So really its only been a few days since I've been able to reorganize.

Oh well...I admit it, I have an addiction to organization. Do they have a program for that? Please sign me up!

Just Visiting

I tend to forget that we're just visiting here on Earth, this past Sunday was a reminder to me of that fact.

We had an announcement in Sacrament that a member of our prior ward had passed away this last Saturday. The hardest part for me is realizing truly how little time we have here on earth. Granted I know that we will be together again and the time we do spend here is such a short visit for us.

The truly sad part is this gal is the sweetest soul I had a chance to visit briefly with when we were in our old ward. She is leaving behind her husband and precious 2 yr old daughter, and she is younger than I am. Yet she stayed positive through the whole ordeal. She is truly a lady to be inspired from. I just pray that her hubby and daughter will be okay and know that she is with her father again.

Sorry I'm blue, but it helps me to write my thoughts down. Even if I don't make sense to some, it makes sense in my head.

Please live your days to the fullest as we truly don't know when we'll be needed back home. We truly don't know how much time we have here.
