Today I am thankful I live in a country that allows me to worship freely... speak my mind... earn a decent living... vote... and serve in my community.

I work hard at making this my motto in life. Sadly, I often fail. LOL. I try to be kind, but sometimes I lose my temper.

I am grateful for oppertunities that help me to grow. I am thankful for a clean kitchen. I am thankful for the nice things we talked about in family scriptures this evening.

Tired... Today was an okay day. It started with CET. I didn't get to drive with Lilli because she was at McKay's house helping out. But I tried to help her by looking for her tap shoes and getting her a bagel and steamer. Production meeting went well and then I was off and running… Continue reading Developing an Attitude of Gratitude – Day 210

Day 2 of CET... first build night... and I can hardly move. My feet, ankles and knees are killing me. I'm going to need to be wheeled out of there the last day.
