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.
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. ;)

ReplyDeleteI know I'm a little late to the party here. This post made me think of a Mormonad I like: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=382539191778968&set=a.382538581779029.96720.382537241779163&type=3&theater
