And that calling is?

BTW, I've run the gamut of most ward callings and have no desire for stake callings.

Now I'm just repeating older callings. I'm happy to inform the bishop I've done that before maybe he should give somebody else an opportunity who hasn't.

I need to give service, even though I do in other arenas, but repeating old stuff is not that fun any more. Any ideas to spicing up repeaters?

Yeah today I am faxing a lease to a place in Southaven.
A few months ago when I learned that my ex has a mental illness, well, that changed everything.

My condolences on the ex and her condition. What a challenge.

You're a good man for doing this.

When you get settled, we should get together. We can have you and your little girl over for Sunday dinner and my wife can start trying to find you a mate.

You probably already know this, but few church folks here (at least in my ward) even care about BYU-Utah. They've all drunk the SEC koolaid (probably for good reason).

We could use more Mississippians on the board, that's for sure!

I cannot imagine anyone having trouble differentiating the two of us, regardless of the calling.

I forgot about the high rates of unemployment and lack of skills in TN and MS. Every place I looked at wanted copies of my last two paychecks as proof of employment. That's something I haven't encountered in CA or UT.

Since school just got out, all I can show are my paychecks from August, and say it will be the same come January, plus my credit score is 815, and perhaps I can include my transcripts for proof of education & competance, and then cross my fingers and see if they will take a risk on me. And offer to pay three months upfront.

One place had a 2 bedroom apartment for only $525, and said they would give me $100 off every month if I paid by the first of the month. Wow how ghetto must those tenants be? In terms of security, it must be worth it to pay a little more and live in Collierville, Germantown or Southaven.
