Reflections

Somedays doing this blog was hectic. May I'd had a long day and then realized I needed something for the blog. At one point I begged my roommate to let me buy her something saying, "I need it for the blog!" After that, if I did something nice, she'd just say, "Is that going on the blog?" And it would.

Because I knew I needed to write the blog I searched for every opportunity. There were times when I saw a chance and almost let it pass me by but then I'd remember I needed it for the blog. But that mindset blossomed into something a little more Christlike. For instance, on days when I already had something for the blog and I would see another opportunity, I'd take it. Not "for the blog," but because it was just the right thing to do.

I hope after this little experiment that I will continue to do a good turn every day. Now it won't be "for the blog," but just because I'm a good person. My momma raised me that way. ;)

Finishing up

19. Dec.

Went to the temple. It was really great actually. Oquirrh Mountain said it was the busiest day they've ever had so, said one temple sister, "The Spirit is extra strong today."

20. Dec.

I gave my mom this blog.

DVD

I loaned my DVD to my roommate and even put it in the player and got it all going. Lame, but better than nothing.

16. Dec.

Went shopping with a friend to supply a family's Christmas.

17. Dec.

At work I volunteered for some extra clients. At home, I entertained a guest while the real hostess was preoccupied in a serious and pressing manner.

It's Nikolaus. Earlier in the week I stole my roommates' shoes and today I put them out with chocolate in them!

Did dishes.

Clothes

My roommate had a big night tonight and I lent her some of my clothes. She looked good!

Pizza and HC

I put my roommate's pizza in the fridge. She didn't even notice it was gone, but when she did she was very happy. I also made everyone hot chocolate, which is never a bad idea.
