So, I'm torn. The radio spot I just heard told me that the Bible says it pretty clearly that the date is May 21, 2011. (I went to the website they were advertising, and it never says WHERE the date is laid out, but after "5 years of tireless study", this guy has decided on this date.) Now, I've read the entire Bible, both old and new Testament, and I've never seen that passage. I admit, I'm surely no expert on the Bible, but I've always gone with this way of thinking: Mark 13:32.
So, practically speaking, do I worry and get my food storage taken care of ... I mean, I do have 3 days to prepare! Or do I blow it off cuz we won't be needing it afterall. How important is it to do that extra load of laundry at this point??? So many projects that I've been putting off can just be left undone, right?!
I was counting on the date in December (according to the Mayan calendar) since I won't have to worry about holiday shopping this year, but could still enjoy the holiday lights. This blows my whole push for Brian to get more lights on the house this year.
I'm being rather sarcastic and rude here, but this is why I love knowing there is a living prophet on the Earth today. That he spoke just recently of the temples being built and the progress of the Lord's work. I feel at peace in a crazy world. While I probably shouldn't poke too much fun at these people who are crying "the world is ending", I will continue to prepare myself and my family to become who we have been asked to become.
And, if you're still around in 3 days, Happy May 21st!

I'll still be here in 3 days. If you are, I'll know you are a big sinner too.
Ted! I didn't know you ever looked at this old blog anymore! Just a warning the article said everyone else would be dead by October 21st, so plan accordingly! Ha!
Too funny! I am with you...so glad to have a living prophet to guide us through this life.
lol, your too funny Kim. You haven't seen the billboards all over with this date posted? Just like you, so gratfeul for a living Prophet, and for the Gospel. Where would be be without it? Probably panicking like the people who decided on that May date for the end to come!Wonder what they/he will say when the date comes and goes? "oops, I meant May of 3011!"
Thanks for the warning. I totally missed the announcement and I have (had?) a really busy day planned.
Will wanted to leave an outfit piled for each of us on the front lawn and put a sign up that said, "See Ya Later Suckers!" I stepped in and killed the joy...maybe next time;)
