I just realized that I only have 100 days left to complete my goal of 365 days of kindness! I have learned so much from this little experiment of mine. Kindness really does start with me. My attitude about all aspects of life has changed. I am firmer and firmer in my faith and testimony,… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 267

#bethelight – Day 265 and 266
The past two day have been days of cleaning up from our 5 weeks of chaos. I feel so much better in life when my house is clean. So, Lilli and I have been cleaning up the yard and the garage. The truth is, it will take the rest of the day. However, it feels… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 265 and 266
#bethelight – Day 260, 261, 263, 264
Wow! I made it to the end of the most exhausting week of my year. Kind acts kept me going... people carrying things for me... my daughter helping me down stairs when my knees couldn't do it again... my friend loaning me a trailer... the same friend coming to my biggest strike and collecting all… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 260, 261, 263, 264
#bethelight – Day 259
Holy Smokes! It's HOT! More than once I have needed to put my head in the sink and soak myself. I ran out of my blood pressure meds and have not been able to leave work and get to the pharmacy when they are open. You combine that with the heat and I feel extra… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 259
#bethelight – Day 258
Today I worked hard. At the end of the day I realized I hadn't brought dinner for Lilli. I found a moment to buy her some dinner. She is a good kid and noticed I was struggling to get to the end of my day. So she jumped in and started helping. She carried boxes… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 258
#bethelight – Day 257
Hard work day. Today I worked on solving problems at work in a calm and polite manner. Let me tell you... it was work. Only 4 more days of CET left... then my tired feet, ankles, knees, heart and brain can rest... and maybe my house can get some chores done too.

The best thing I did today was to write a letter to Hannah. It took me all day, but I succeeded. 18 pages. I should have titled it The Epistle of Mom. LOL. I hope she likes it. It goes in the mail tomorrow.
#bethelight – Day 255
Long day... and still more to go. My kind act of the day is to take my teenager to the movies at 10pm. I'm tired, so it is a little bit of a sacrifice. However, got to make memories where you can and while you can. In some ways, we are all each other has. … Continue reading #bethelight – Day 255
#bethelight – Day 253 and 254
OMG! The chaos has begun. I am now in the longest 8 day week of my year. Yesterday I swear I had a nervous break down... it was most likely pure exhaustion. Through all the chaos, through every road block I hit, through every "fire" I put out, I tried to be kind. However, the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 253 and 254
#bethelight – Day 252
Today I took a few minutes and moved the water around my yard and pulled a few weeds in my garden. Everyone should have a garden. Grow a garden... even if it is only in a couple of pots on a balcony. Fruits and veggies and herbs! Think of all the yummy things you can… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 252
