Mothers day 2014

                            Hey Everybody!!!  I hope everybody's family is safe and healthy. This week is going really well. We have the house were just waiting on the other people to move out. Now it's not so bittersweet. I know I can do missionary work in Monticello. They really need help. I am excited to see what this move brings. I will be transferring to the dollar general in Monticello. I've heard everybody is really nice and the store is really clean! I enjoyed my second mother's day. One, I didn't have to work haha but I did Saturday night and I can say we were busy and I'm scared to know what dollar general is like on Christmas eve. Sunday, I got to hangout here at home with the family and just relax. On Saturday night I had a sweet event happen... that makes you just happy as can be. There was this little boy maybe about eight that came to my register he had a mothers day card and was very excited and he was paying for it. I asked if he needed a bag he said " Yes, I need it to hide it from my mom..it's for her." I said " Ok, well you want to extra hide it by me double bagging it?" He shook his head and said "yes"!! He was so excited it was a sweet afternoon.        Then I got home to find out that Scarlett (with Uncle C.j. help) picked flowers for me. She was so excited to give them to me even though they were wilted by morning it was still the act of love that counted and she didn't notice. This week we are starting to pack and organize everything. This weekend we tackled the bathroom. We had so much stuff it was crazy for the amount of space haha! The next room we are tackling tomorrow is the laundry room. I'm getting boxes from dollar general tomorrow with the missionaries here. Please pray for our investigators as we are having a hard time right now finding them. Also, our previous investigator Courtney has not been back to church. She needs one more visit to be able to be baptized. The problem is .. she's just not there when we show up to give her a ride. I'm not sure what's going on with this one. I try not to let it bother me anymore though when it doesn't work out. I just say well if they don't want to learn the truth here they will later on. .. sooner or later though they will work there way back to heavenly father.  Well this is for now till next week!!!

Priscilla Pringle's Predicament - Reader's Theater at Lethbridge Whoop-U...

This week was quite fun for me because I got to portray the main antagonist in a Reader's Theater called 'Priscilla Pringle's Predicament/All's Swell That Ends Swell' that Playgoers of Lethbridge put on at Lethbridge Whoop-Up Days 2017. The story was written by Ed Bayly, a truly wonderful individual. Doing the performances all week reminded me of how much I love participating in theater. Please enjoy this recording! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIh88Y5H3cI&t=1135s

"Around and around" by Isidro Zapata on the #mormonysablogs Official Website

Around & around we go trying to fill a void in our hearts, so around & around we go, trying to fill a void in our hearts, The Son of Man's compassion, passion and grace step in, to fill the void holding us tenderly, by his love and grace Jesus will never let us go So around and around our love grows hard to walk away from such love Jesus is the only way to live a life of bliss So around and around our love grows Jesus gave his life for you and me Wiping away every tear showing you grace from above now that is true love So around and around our love grows to the one who laid down his life so we can live a life of bliss hard to walk away from such love so around and around our love grows to him who laid down his life for you and me CR2016-01-04 iz

'Telling the Truth' by Lesego Mholo

I'd rather be hurt by you telling me the truth than lies. Keep deceiving people and think they don't know. One day it will catch up with you. The truth hurts when its contrary to what your made to believe.  In one way or another lies always catch up with us, our consciousness doesn't let us lie for too long. Lying affects trust and loyalty in a relationship when your lied to you feel like you no longer belong you feel inadequate, telling the truth solidifies a relationship bond, and it might signify love or care; furthermore, telling the truth to me it tells that your emotionally mature. The truth makes me feel secure. Sometimes we give our hearts to people, and they think we are stupid for that we end up depending on them for loyalty. Truth is the only way two people can survive in a relationship and mutual understanding but reassurance and trust are the only things that might keep the relationship functioning. Dishonesty is the beginning of a fading relationship and
