Just a thought...

OK so I just got off the phone with an old friend(she's not old Ive just known her since 2ndgrade). She has lived int he same ward for 12 years, it is a boring ward as far a change goes they might get a move in or out a year. My ward on the other hand I can never tell who's visiting or is new we get so much traffic. I'm not complaining. Well She just got new bishop the man whose back yard shares a fence with hers. Has been that way for 12 years in that time he's never said anything nice to or bout her or her kids (trust me I've heard). Anyway she tells me, "I just want to scream when he stand up in meetings and tells us how much he loves and cares for each of us. Is it like when he became a bishop he got a dose of caring potion".
I told her I've never had that situation in my adult life as I made a list of all the bishops I've had from the insitute bishop that I don't think he had a unkind thought because when ever we went to him with anything of the sort it would bring him to tears, I'd almost rather have the mean fence dude. I've had one bishop who I don't think liked any one that was ok no expectations. Our current bishop came to us from a ward combination so I didn't know he existed until he was called. And don't know him well enough to comment on if he had the caring potion or if it is geuine. Ok back to the mean fence dude my friend said she didn't sustain him when he was called nor did she appose but no he has asked her to be Relief Society president and he is scared to work so closly with him, but she also doesn't want to turn down the calling. My semi-rebellious answers to her problems were 1. Move 2. Tell him she's having doubts about the calling 3. MY HECK just say no who said you ahd to accept every calling tht came your way.
Sometimes I am graetful to live where so much motion happens in our ward. OK this is aramble that made no sence but after I got off the phone the whole conversation seemedd really funny so I thought I'd share. Plus she whined because I never posted about her I hope youre happy now!
