Weather

Not being one of those people who love the heat, I was loving the weather today. Our little mountains that we view out the back of our house actually had snow on them. (Not turning on the furnace, though.)

Water, Water

Having no water at all in the house can be tricky - thank goodness it was only for a few hours.

But...having a couple of brand new water heaters makes for a much better shower! Many thanks to our great plumber!

Camilla Kimball

Julie Beck, the other night, said she remembers what Sister Kimball said: that one should never stifle a generous impulse.

A great philosophy, and one I shall endeavor to implement.

What a Woman Wants

Started the day going to the "What A Woman Wants" show - an expo hall filled with vendors catering to women and their quest for the best in life (i.e. vanity: jewelry, facials, cosmetics, teeth whitening, tattooed eye-liner, shoes, sparkly jeans, etc.).

Ended the day attending the General Women's meeting where I found (in my opinion) what a woman really wants through the Gospel principles taught there: a knowledge and testimony of our Savior, Jesus Christ and of the working of His Atonement in our lives, the conviction that we are loved daughters of our Heavenly Father, that we have a purpose and a place in this life, that we matter, and that our service of one another is not only an errand of our Heavenly Father, but also one of His tender mercies, that charity never fails.

So glad that I ended the day in the more important place.
