Big day

I'm grateful for the priesthood. For the blessings it gives me in my life. For my husband and father holding it. For my son having a desire and living a life to be worthy of it. For a father, brother, husband and nephew that could stand in the circle to give it to my son. What an awesome day.

March 30, 2014

1 - I made a good dinner for my family
2 - I chose to spend my time going to choir practices and performing in a Stake Easter Fireside
3 - I got to my meetings on time

1 - Missy did the dishes all on her own - not being asked.  It is amazing to me how such a little service fills my bucket with grattitude
2 - I am grateful I get to go to church.  It is totally a choice I can make and I get to make that choice every week.  I am not filed every week, probably because I am not prepared to hear, but this week I was filled.
3 - I have a truly wonderful husband.  Corry is not only good to me, but sometimes I get to be really good to him too.  I love that we are so different and that we can support each other in our different things, but I love that we are mostly just working together - even if it is at different things, we are still working for our ultimate common goal of celestial glory.

1 - Not just seek and hear promptings, but act on them.

1 - I exercised - and I loved it!  It was my second bike ride of this year and I grinned the whole time!  I love being out on my bike!
2 - Life's bumps came up and I had to rearrange things right around dinner time, but I still got it made and everyone was fed.
3 - I successfully brought home a 14 foot long board in my 11 foot long car.

1 - Good friends to go to lunch with
2 - Good leaders that care about my kids
3 - Missy saw a need in helping me out.  Everyone else was sitting around on their electronics while I frantically tried to put together dinner and have it eaten in 20 minutes.  She came right up, asked if she could help and jumped in cheerfully.

1 - Reach out to someone in need and teach my kids to work

Jan 28, 2014

I'm changing up this blog a bit. I am working on my mental health to become less of an "I can't do anything right" person and more of an "I can do many things well" person.  So everyday I will list three things I have done well, three things I am grateful for, and one thing to work on for tomorrow.

1 - I had dinner done with enough time for everyone to eat it and get to the church
2 - I made my bed
3 - I followed through with a prompting to take missy to the doctor

1 - technology - Because of skype I could talk to my husband
2 - amazing doctors in my life that not only are good doctors, but are cousins that love us
3 - birthdays - kohls gave me $10 for my birthday.  I got valentine's day dish towels and a bar of chocolate

1 - excercise - I didn't get there today
