Soooooo today I was released as a Relief Society secretary! I was definitely not expecting to be released, and everyone else is still in the presidency. On the one hand I liked my calling and will miss it, but on the other hand I was getting really burned out and needed a change. Sometimes I felt like I was working SO hard and not actually making a difference and that became extremely frustrating. It will be nice to not have to leave Sunday school early to make sure everything gets started on time. It will be nice to not have it be THAT big a deal if I get sick and don't go to church. I feel like a huge part of my job is to be dependable, and it's nice to not have to be dependable at work AND at church.
I'm actually pretty grateful for this change. I've had this calling since March (or something, I actually have no idea) and it can actually be extremely stressful, so I welcome a little less stress... at least for now. I just feel kinda bad for Amber, the (now) only secretary! She just had a baby on Wednesday and had to go to the hospital (Amber, not the baby) for an infection yesterday. She will be fine, but I don't know if she'll be up for solo secretarial duties by next Sunday! I guess the other girls can handle the load until she gets better. But since I'm nice I'll try to make sure everything is up to date so she doesn't have to do things I've been putting off haha.
Double-plus bonus, I don't have to carry a million binders every Sunday!
