List five things you wish you had with you today.
{2012}

4. My computer
5. Can't really think of anything else

 

Photo: Month of Gratitude Day 7. Grateful for those who have supplied us with meals the past month. Even though we don't 'need' them, it is nice to not have to worry about what to have for dinner or make it. Thanks Betty & Kelly, Shaina, and mom!

 

Dear God, Part 2

If you could ask God a question, what would it be?
{2012}

 

I would ask him how I can be a better person. How I can be more forgiving and more sympa/empathetic. I am struggling with that a lot right now, and could really use some help in those areas (among others).

My Job

Do you love your job?
{2012}

 

You know, I really do. I really do like what I do. Even with the changes, and even though I'd rather just be a 'teller' and not an 'MSR', it will be cool to learn new things. I love the people I work with most days, so that makes it nice.

 

Really though, whenever anyone asks me if I like my job, I say yes. I really do. I will probably be there forever, I love it so much.

 

Photo: Month of Gratitude Day 5. Grateful for my calling as Relief Society 2nd Counselor. It came at a time I needed it, and I'm grateful for the women I serve with... even when all our meetings are at least 2 hours long.

 

Best Conversation

What was the best conversation you had today?

 

I don't really know, but I'm sure Donna and I had some good conversations, or Caleb always brings up something random to talk about.

Beautiful

What is the most beautiful thing you saw today?

{2012}

 

It snowed a little bit, so that was beautiful. One Direction also released their new video, and oh my goodness, it was really beautiful. The number of photographs in it and the way it was set up...so amazing. I loved it!!

 

Photo: Month of Gratitude Day 3. Grateful that my hubby makes me eat healthy, but also lets me have ice cream and other treats.

 

Go to Bed

What time did you go to bed last night? Was it unusual for you?

{2012}

 

It was probably around 10:30-11:00, which is a little later than normal. When you don't have to get up at 7 am, I'm going to take advantage of it. Though I'm definitely not the night owl I once was. I guess that means I really am getting old.

 

Photo: Month of Gratitude Day 2. Grateful for a husband who willingly does housework... even when I was more capable.

To Make

What is your favorite thing to make and who taught you to make it?

{2012}

 

I don't really know. I would still have to say anything on Photoshop... scrapbook pages, invitations/announcements, etc. etc. And I taught myself. Love. It.
