Thought of the Week

  • "Having OCD is like being allergic to life - every waking moment is spent in a state of mental hyper-sensitivity.”

Why am I returning to this blog after so long?

During this next year, this blog will "document" Devin's OCD, and the improvements she makes. In no way is this blog meant to make anyone feel sorry for our trials. We know that trials are merely blessings in wolves' clothing. Because any improvements will be minor and subtle as the days go by, I want to write it all down so that I can look back and see how far Devin has come. If you are a first-time reader, I suggest you begin by reading this post. It will give you some background and show you a starting point. Comments are welcome, but please be kind. This is not an easy illness to deal with. We're all just doing the best we can.

New Calling

Last month I was called into the Stake President's office and given a new calling. I am the Stake ESL Teacher. Interesting. I just quit my job as an ESL teacher, and here I am again. I really do enjoy it, and the people in the class are wonderful. They are grateful to have me there, and make me feel welcome. It meets before our Sacrament gets out, and during our Sunday School. At first, I was hesitant to hold the class on Sunday, but then I got to thinking, hey, this will give me something to do on Sundays. I was told that they would like me to attend at least Sacrament with the Spanish Branch, which I was happy to do. I don't feel much of a connection to our Relief Society. Some people have a hard time with Sunday School. I usually don't have a hard time with it, unless the teaching is sub-par. Relief Society, on the other hand, I've never been a fan of. Anyway, attending the Spanish Branch's Sacrament Meeting will give me a chance to brush up on my Spanish. I just have to try to focus more. I get kinda sleepy at that time of day.
