Saturday


It's after 11 and I just woke up. It's that lovely time of the month and not only did I break out, I am exhausted/drained like I worked out hard but I'm just trying to wake up nicely. I didn't stay up late either. I went to bed at a little after midnight. I need to get into my workout routine again. I would feel extremely sleepy at night but then in the morning I'd feel well-rested.

I did lunch with Lauresa yesterday at Elements. She had to leave early to go to work the day I moved. I wanted to take her to Le Nonne just because I haven't eaten there yet but I need to watch my money since I get to pay my rent with this check AGAIN. GRRR!!! This is my crappy month of paying rent 3x what I usually will!!!

My next check will go to the loan shark the first week of August then the last week will be used on rent again. FINALLY in September I will start to be normal again financially. I'm complaining but I am grateful that despite these demands I can handle it. 2 years ago I was caught up making loans to pay other loans. That was a nightmare.

I'm so glad my father in heaven has helped me get a handle on my finances. There's a stool I wanted at Walmart last night. It is $16 BUT I can use a chair for now. I'll buy it in September. I'm buying that Hoover vacuum in August however. It is worth it to spend the extra money on good quality appliances. Enjoying these here where I live has taught me that. I can still buy cheap frames and look for good furniture deals at DI. I want to buy an accent chair but I want it from TJ Maxx or Ross. I want to buy several mirrors TJ Maxx and Ross both stock nice AND nice-priced large mirrors.

I want a huge picture of Christ and the young ruler. It is my favorite picture. I am going to buy it at Deseret Book and see if Hastings will blow it up for me.

Mosiah 5
And they all cried with one voice, saying: Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us; and also, we know of their surety and truth, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has wrought a mighty achange in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do bevil, but to do good continually.

The Hope of God's Light - President Uctdorf

Brothers and sisters, even after the darkest night, the Savior of the world will lead you to a gradual, sweet, and bright dawn that will assuredly rise within you.
As you walk toward the hope of God’s light, you will discover the compassion, love, and goodness of a loving Heavenly Father, “in [whom there] is no darkness at all.”9 Of this I testify in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.

I couldn't stop blubbering when I first heard this talk. It was exactly what I needed exactly when I needed it. I was furious with the online business dean and ready to rip her a new one - I don't even know what the hell that means. It just describes perfectly how angry I was. I was in darkness or feeling like it anyway. His message of light and love through our Savior was just what I needed to soften my heart and remember that I am a disciple of Christ NOT Satan.

Tonight Marci's planned a surprise party for Jennifer Baker. She is genuinely kind and sweet and people don't treat her well because she is a little awkward. After going to Conference with her she gets on my nerves and I just don't want to interact with her at all. I will snap at her for no reason now which is why I need to stay away because she doesn't deserve that. She just irritates me. 

Katie and Tama from the ward have a BBQ at Erin's house along with a movie tonight. I always like food AND Erin's house is close now. I'm probably going to attend the BBQ but then leave. I AM NOT interested in watching Condorman on the lawn. I don't own a lawn chair OR a blanket I want to use on the ground. I need one of those mats that roll up so I won't mind using a blanket on the mat/ground. But I don't have one AND I don't like the movie.

More forcing myself to attend these things I don't naturally have fun at.
