Church times Frustration

So I haven't been to church in my own ward for ages and I decided to be bold and unashamed (why I felt like this I have no idea) and ask the Elders what time the Sacrement meeting was on in my ward (Campbelltown 1)... 1 o'clock!!! How stupid is that!!!

Church in Mittagong is where I was introduced to the church and I feel really comfortable there. It's where my friends are and I know all the leaders and the President. Sacrement at Mittagong starts at 9.30am and by the time I've driven down there (40 minute drive) gone to Sacrement, taught a lesson for primary (as a visitor of course), seen my dear friends and driven home, I'm still back before church starts in Campbelltown.

It really sucks. 1 o'clock is slap bang in the middle of my day and with my hubby now working nights, if I went to church i would see less of him (he is not a member). Steve gets up at about midday so if I changed to Campbelltown 1, I would have to say "see ya" at 12.45 until I saw him again at 3.30pm. Now, I'm able to go to church and home again before he is even stirring.

I know it is important to go to church in your own ward and stuff but man, this is not encouraging me to want to leave Mittagong.
