Report on November Activity

Iunisi Vakaukamea here to let you know how our November Activity went. The theme was "Manage Your Home Well", and started with a wonderful lesson from Jennis Lawrence. We then went to the mini classes which were also of great benefit.

Budgetting........Some of the sisters didn't know how to do a budget for themselves, families, etc but after the class they had the desire to do one for their own families....Sister Onekawa did hand out some examples of how to do a budget and it does really help alot....Wow, what a great opportunity for the sisters to learn that experience and carry on with their own.....

Sorting....By Sister Smith....She said that she loved doing this kind of job Why? Because she really knows how to do it!!
1....Plan what you're going to do.
2....Decide where to start from
3....What to keep , what to give away, what to chuck out
4....Where to store them
5....Do it. Finish the job. Just as easy as that
.....Need any help with sorting call her.

Time Out by Sister Leelo.....Imagine that she got 7 kids. SEVEN kids! And she still has some timeout for herself and so does her family as well. She did give us some wonderful hints for how we ourselves can have some timeout.....
* go out on dating (find someone else to takeover babysitter) while you're away
* do some reading, (magazine, etc)
* do some exercises with some other sisters
* have a nap while you're home by yourself
* watch TV for a little time
* window shopping at the mall,etc.
And last but not the least, you need to look after yourself.

What a great night that sisters in Zion had.....Everyone had something to take home to their own families, and for themselves as well. Some of the sisters are doing exercises in groups as sisters and their partners are so supportive and happy for their wives going out there and actually do the things which they learnt from that night.

What a night....an awesome night.... and the supper afterwards was yummy too.

We look forward to seeing you at the December Activity. Detail will be out soon.
