even cats get dandruff
lisa's back and she brought me a bracelet from american eagle. i dig it. my stress level at work has taken a dive. i didn't realize that i was that stressed out but i guess i was. huh. shrug.
yesterday i started on a project that i have been wanting to work on for years and years and years and years. but i always put it off for a day in which i had unlimited time to spend on projects. in the wisdom that comes in your late 30s i've realized that this day will never come. it's a record keeping project. maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but it gives me a thrill because, hi, i'm a record keeper. i remember mom telling me when i was young to never throw away things that i wrote because she did and she always regretted it. boy did i take that lesson to heart. i took it as gospel and wrote it in my heart. i want to remember everything important and special and meaningful. i don't want experiences to be lost. i even keep things like old slang teaser definitions that we did that we laughed especially over. i treasure those kinds of things.
anyways, this project is a compiling of records having to do with my mission. i have almost all the letters i wrote home, my mission journal, my letters to the president and all the photos i took. i want to fit them all together and make a book. i'm super excited about it actually. it's the kind of thing that probably i'll be the only one to ever look through and read, maybe if i ever have kids they might one day look at it, but it doesn't matter. it will be something i will treasure. so yesterday i took all my letters that i wrote and put them chronologically into their slots in my journal and started typing everything out. it can be my sunday geneology project. yahoo!
i also got some individual family pics developed and tonight i framed them. martha, evan, sarah and katie joined the twins. one day i'll have everyone.
i was going to get up early this morning to go for a walk-run but inexplicably i slept in instead. when i got home i was feeling really tired and so i told myself i'd go tuesday morning. but after lazing around in bed looking up what restaurant to eat at for my birthday and watching a show i suddenly was not tired and although it was almost dark, it wasn't yet. so i went.
and so you see, i am feeling very pleased and satisfied with myself. you must see this. i'm going to enjoy it while i can.
oh and brother roeder fixed my bike seat for me yesterday when he home taught me. home teachers are great.
i'm dwindling into boring utterances. good bye.
