Sometimes I wonder where people went after the last time I saw them...especially when it's been 15 years

So management fixed our water. Silly maintenance simply forgot to turn it back on. But it was inconvenient. But hey, at least we have it back.

It's been a great weekend! General Conference is always so uplifting and amazing, and inspiring, in that I want to be a better person, and here's how! Yesterday morning I went over to the Wilk to have breakfast with my ward before the first session, and then we watched that session in the varsity theater. That was sweet! The rest of my day was uneventful...it's actually been a really relaxing weekend as well! Both sessions were great yesterday, and I got a couple hours of organ and piano practice in last night, which was awesome! And then Tiff and I went to the store with Ry Ry to pick up some stuff for a cake he and I are making tonight. Then we watched a movie.

Today, I woke up earlier, but didn't get out of bed until right before conference started. James came over for that. It's always cool to have people over, and get to enjoy conference all together! Between sessions, James, Tiff, Lionel, Lionel's friend, and I had brunch, and then Tim and his buddy came over, and we all watched the last session together. I think that was my favorite session. I tried going into conference this time with a specific thing I wanted to learn more about, and this last session definitely more than covered that! It was amazing, truly. We are so blessed to live at a time where there are living prophets, from whom we can learn!

I've gotta read my scriptures now, because I didn't this morning. I'm in Luke, and I'll finish it before the end of the week. It's been a great time of year to be reading the gospels, what with today being Palm Sunday and next week being Easter! Wow. Life is so, so good.

    Glad you got your water back and that it was a simple fix. Do you have normal hot water now, and cold water?

    And Conference was fantastic!

10 Things I love about Hannaford

So originally I was going to do this in sarcasm...but then decided that I could actually come up with 10 things (in no specific order) I like about my job. Even though being a cashier at a grocery store is not ideal, it's a job, and...well, you'll see. 1. Going on break with my dad sometimes. Because, you know, we work in the same store. It's pretty cool. 2. I love the people I work with soooooo much! Mainly the ones during the day, because I don't know any of the high school kids that work evenings, because I rarely work evenings. 3. Being the "party animal". nuff said. 4. Watching a cashier ID someone for alcohol, and him telling us that he doesn't even have a photo ID since his license was taken away for DWI. Yeah, maybe he should rethink his purchase... 5. Now when I hear the name of a vegetable, I automatically think of its PLU. Dates: 3047. Cabbage: 4069. Bananas: 4011. Tree Ripe Peaches: 4044. Eastern Peaches: 4403. Nectarines: 4378....

Shades of Gray

Sometimes you think you've seen and heard it all. You look back on your life and think, "wow, I've been through everything." And you realize that you've been friendless, lost people close to you to the dreaded cancer, pretty much failed a class, missed work entirely, didn't know how you were going to pay your bills, been rejected by people you liked, felt lost and aimless, been rejected twice from the dream you've been dreaming, had the car die on you more times than you can count, and the list goes on. On the other hand, you've got amazing friends, the gospel in life, a positive and optimistic outlook, had the opportunity to be an EFY counselor, have an amazing family, travelled a ton, finally found what you want to do with your education, and the list goes on longer than the first. And then you think, again, "wow, I really HAVE been through everything!" And you think you know how to deal with anything that might come your way, because ...

Rocks Rock!

So just out of curiosity, and because I had a couple minute before I have to head to work, I went on ebay and searched for a rock hammer. They are way cheaper than I thought they'd be! One of these days, I'm going to invest in a good one. But probably not until post-mission, as I technically won't need it until then anyway. Unless for some reason I take it to Alaska...hmm.... idears! Anyway, I took a geology test today, and it was a breeze. I love having a 4-credit class that I love and have an A in...partially because I love it, and partially because it takes some stress off of my math class, because this will balance it out. Though I'm not doing as badly in math as I thought I was! But i guess we'll see how this next test goes, which I think I am going to take on Saturday. It's going to be a busy weekend! James and I have quite the adventure planned for Saturday evening...just wait for pictures :) I hope it works out, because it'll be a hoot! ...
