Monday, August 05, 2013

          Our day started early with exercise, and this beautiful view greeted and accompanied us.  We put our laundry in before we started and were able to finish it before everyone else was lined up waiting for machines.  It was a major house-cleaning day with mopping floors and scrubbing down everything that was in need—which was just about everything.  It felt really great to get it all done. 
          The next order of business on our P-day was to figure out how to scan documents into our new printer/scanner and save them to the laptops.  We are still working on getting the Post Office Box set up in Miami—actually, that part is finished, but all of the paper work here needed to be finished.  We did lots of emailing, scanning, and talking on the telephone and think it is finally out of our hands and on the way to finalization.  When that happens, we will have a trial run to see how well it works.  We are pretty happy to have figured out all this stuff without help—it was a little frustrating and took more time than it would have for any of our kids, but we did it!!
          Home Evening is always interesting but also creates a little anxiety for me. Tonight I just did my part in English and kept it short.  Glade is good to translate, but sometimes it just makes me too obviously different.  Oh, well. 

          It’s time to wind down, prepare for our early shift which begins in the morning, and get to bed—and hopefully to sleep.  Love to all!!   
Oh, What a Beautiful Morning!!

  1. Mom you're supposed to be obviously different. That's why you're there! You different because you play the piano, you speak English for all the English speaking people that come to the temple, and you're you. That's just awesome. :) Who cares about Spanish. It will come. ;)
