Great Day! Great, Wonderful Day!
Tanda and Abby were here to visit. Izzy and Abby were in heaven - so sweet. I wish there was a way to capture the feelings of seeing her grow up it is so amazing. I love to see her so happy, so free and unihibited, just able to be herself and have fun. Giggling in bed like teenage girls they couldnt go to sleep so we had to finally separate them, and yet they were still so sweet!
This morning we got up early to start the garage sale which Matt attended for me while I went garage sale-ing. I found a bench, little tykes washing machine, stroller, 4 curtain rod sconces, and 2 swivel bar stools all for $30.00. We also sold QUITE A BIT at our sale and now I have to decide whether to save it for a 1) piano 2) camera 3) decorating 4) christmas.
Saw our neighborhood Coopers Hawk at the roadside with his morning breakfast. Slammed on the brakes and backed up to get a good look and there he sat. It was awesome.
Went to the Temple with Tanda - the rest of the girls from our ward in KC were there too: Shirley Hudson, Emily Murdock, Heidi Bennion, Sarah Rathjen, Jodee Taylor, Katie Wheeler, Amy Birdwell, Michelle Sinsel, Kathy Rowe, Viviana Groves, Julia Mensen, Marianne Goss... It was so wonderful, I was crawling out of my skin so anxious to talk to everyone. I just wanted to hug them all. We had lunch in the temple Cafeteria - all these wonderful homemade soups, salad and Bundt cake by Michelle. Awesome. I miss the realness of those people.
These St. Louis people are cold and empty and unwelcoming. Everyone seems shallow and very self absorbed and NO one cares about money - they just spend it.
I am becoming so much more comfortable in my own skin again. It is so good. I am not worrying about what Matt is doing, I can let him be himself and I feel good. It feels good to take care of me.
I used a hairstraightener and loved it! I also like how I looked in black today - It gives me a glimpse of looking better and I feel motivated to work harder at losing weight. I want to feel good.
Here is the end of this ramble.
Today I am happy and grateful. Good Day.
