Sunday Thoughts & Happenings

Today I gave a talk at church in Sacrament Meeting. The topic I was assigned was Exercising Faith in Building Your Testimony. I spent many hours pondering the topic and then spent several more hours studying, reading and composing my thoughts. I enjoy the process and know that I learn a lot from it. The other speaker for the meeting is a good friend of mine, and it was nice to sit on the stand with a friend. I really don't mind speaking, but I'm sure glad it's over. It was interesting that the subject of testimonies was a big part of the lessons in Sunday School and Relief Society today.

Sunday dinner was at my parent's house. My mom made a potato bar for dinner and peach cobbler and ice cream for dessert. It was yummy! We've been out of strawberry jam for several weeks now, so I finally made a batch today. Robby should be happy now.

After dinner, I watched a movie, "Maybe, Definitely". A chick flick for sure, and I liked it. I then contemplated the mess I call my craft area, and prompty walked out of the room. Maybe I'll give it more attention another day.

That was my Sunday, how was yours?

Christmas and Catching Up, Sort of.....

I so wanted and planned to post several times in December. I had a bunch of days off from work during the month and thought I would have plenty of time to post. But no, as you can tell, it didn't happen. So what was I doing while not posting in the month of December? I enjoyed time with family and friends, cleaned, organized, shopped, wrapped, decorated, exercised, shoveled snow, watched some daytime TV (I like The Today Show, The Price is Right and Dr. Oz), and then probably some other things that I've forgotten because December was a couple of months ago.

The month after December is.....January! And no, I didn't post that month either. What was I doing in the month of January? Well, my job took me out of town for several days, and the rest of the month just slipped right by. I did read a good book.

And now February is almost half over, but I'm happy to report (blog) something before the month ends. February has been a busy month. I've worked many hours trying to catch up from being gone from work so much in January. I've been trying to get back to my exercise program. (Maybe more on that later, maybe). Robby and I attempted to clean up the garage. I helped plan, organize and carry out our ward's monthly Relief Society meeting, and I went to a baby shower. My mother and I went to Las Cruces to shop, visit with Tim and have lunch.

So now you're caught up. Well, sort of......
