every time i wear my hair in the low messy loose buns everyone thinks i've cut my hair. i'm pretty sure my hair wouldn't look this way if it was short.
i had some good sunday study time this morning. i read mosiah 3 and then i read a lot in my scripture journal from last year. it was good to read. i studied a lot of good things last year. i figured things out. the gospel is a beautiful thing. the scriptures are a deep well of light and understanding. that's the way i am feeling today.
today was my last day at the ysa branch. i'm moving on to the family ward. i know it's going to be strange. it's been almost five years since karey and i moved here and the branch has been my home and family in a way. it's hard to leave but i just feel like it's time.
karey has a migraine. she got me to give her a face massage and put peppermint halo on a cloth on her head. she's lying on her bed beside me in the dark and out in the living room sarita and elicia are watching little house on the prarie. it's the one about charles' dad. heather's at a sarah burnham potluck.
sarita came home from a month away at new zealand on friday. she gave us all bone carving neclaces. they all mean something. mine protects from evil spirits. at church me and karey both realized that we were wearing ours. we looked over at elicia and she was too.
i had a good saturday. i woke up, read my scriptures and meandered into the living room. karey was already there and we watched this movie i rented. it was an odd sort of movie called off the map. it was set in new mexico and very beautiful. two characters always sounded like they were in a play. but the story was kind of interesting part of it was about depression and in the end it was like the man woke up. he noticed the people around him, was grateful, participated in their life together again. something about it inspired me. i got up from the movie and started doing the dishes. they were dishes that i had neglected for a week. while i did that i enjoyed the sun shining in the window and suddenly i longed for a garden. a real garden. a raised box kind of garden. karey said she might participate with me in the making of a garden this spring. the idea excites me. after the dishes were done i made our contribution for the potluck. i threw chicken thighs, broccoli, onion, asparagus and cream of mushroom soup along with some garlic in the crock pot and turned it on.
i got dressed and went to the gym.
i've been learning/listening to janis joplin for the past week or so. i like her.
i felt full of determination at the gym. at the gym i realized that i stunk. i mean i really stunk. time to wash the gym clothes if you know what i mean.
lisa who had met me at the gym led the way back to her house where we both showered and got ready for a night out with the girls. we were late a little late. do all women who become mothers fumfer? lisa fumfers anyways. we met tanya and the other lisa and leah at cactus club. i had the spicy chicken and bandara salad. lisa and i shared a mud pie. the gym made us ravenous.
after dinner we went back to lisa's and watched walk the line. it was about what i expected.
when i walked in the door of my home i stumbled on all the shoes piled up there. kurt and his room mate andrew and investigator lily were all over, not to mention barb and jonathon. they were watching four feathers so i settled in on the floor to watch with them. i like that movie.
blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda. karey's snoring. he he.
