The one where I put off organizing...

I have lots o' lists and plans and things I need to be doing for our upcoming move...
but do I do them??
No.
Right now I'm in the midst of our YW Camp fundraiser.
Yes...This week, I have to execute a night of BBQ, auction and kid karnival all to extort money out of the people in our church to send our girls to camp.
Our last ward cleared 3 times as much money as was needed. I don't want 3 times. I just want enough.
One member of our bishopric said he'd rather just write a check for $100 and be done with it all. Wouldn't we all?? Does he think "I" would rather through this big shin-dig? Heck No. But it's about the girls, earning their way. Providing service in exchange for our 'villiage' pulling together to send our girls.
I had an epiphany this weekend, that has untied the big knot in my stomach.
Either it'll be enough or it won't. Either they'll come and support or they won't. Either it will be a huge success or a learning lesson.
Worrying about the outcome will not change it.
So, I will do my best, and let it be what it is. If it's not enough money, then the girls (parents) will have to cough up the rest of the amount due.
The same can be said about the job, the new house, the in-laws, the move.
Either it will work out or it won't. If we are supposed to be there, we will.
