Spring is just a far away dream

Yeah, it's snowing here. Not just a sprinkling, or a dusting of the stuff, it's actual big, wet, fluffy snowflakes covering the ground in inches.

I thought it was spring! Today is the first day, but I guess the calendar did not get consulted. It's a good thing I didn't get all wound out and start "spring cleaning" or anything. Just sayin'. Cuz I was really going to do it! Guess I better put it off for another week.

I ran across this idea for storing some of my scrapbooking supplies. I've got some CD cases lying around that will be put to good use when I get to that spring cleaning.

Instead of actually starting my spring cleaning, I thought I'd read some articles to get me inspired. Really, that's what I'm doing. I'm not just wasting time surfing the net, there's a method to my madness. Here's a good article about curing clutter and spring cleaning.

Family Home Evening has a giveaway going on right now with just a few more spots. Leave a comment on their post here and you could win a copy of 52 More Weeks of Family Night: Scripture Study edition.

I'm contemplating whether the weather will be keeping us from going to church tomorrow. Since I have sharing time and am in charge of a Teacher Training meeting that includes lunch, maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing. But then all of that work I've done getting ready for them will be wasted, and I'll have to reschedule the training. So I'm hoping that church is on. By the way, this picture is from the last storm and not today. But it's looking pretty close to that right now! And Easter is just 2 weeks away.

A goal without a daily plan of action is just a wish.

That quote from Dave Ramsey was sent to me by my friend Susan, and I think I will post it where I can read it every day.

Now that it's a new year in Primary, I'm really trying to get organized. I've run across some good blog posts on that subject.

Marie Ricks has some ideas on how to organize in order to magnify your calling.

Here is a funny post from Normal Mormon Husbands: A tribute to Primary Music Leaders everywhere! Love the "down in the River Jordan" visual aid he came up with. I've been a PML enough to know how much you have to deliver every Sunday.
