Saturday

My mini-vacation I gave myself is wonderful. I love that I have today to do laundry since I haven't even started yet. The repair guy came on Friday which is super. I need to get used to my steamer. I assembled it and steamed a shirt and then tried to tackle my master bathroom shower curtain. It has a lot of creases from when I just stored it folded up in Salt Lake City. My room at my mother's house is all about the purple. I painted it AND the ceiling Tiffany Blue but the purple still fits there fine. My bathroom there is all about lavender and purple. I want to get my Real Estate license. That takes about 6 months and there is a program at Bridgerland that is around $600. It begins in August and finishes in December. I'm going to wait until January. It is EVERY Monday and Wednesday night for actually about 5 months. That's not very long although it is irritating. I've always wanted to do this or become an appraiser.

Appraisers always have work because people always need an appraisal when they buy or sell a house or get any type of loan associated with their house. I'm not giving up my career to do that BUT it is something I'd love to do on the side. I love that show about flipping houses. A couple of real estate agents buy homes when they are foreclosed or bank-owned cheaply at an auction. They fix problems, re-design and then stage homes and sell these to people making a HUGE profit. Yesterday they made between 35-100,000 with one house.

They update these asap so they can turn around and sell them. I think this would be even more fun and there is a nice huge profit without having to worry about hiring people to maintain your properties ALTHOUGH owning a bunch of properties is good too. I want to buy the beautiful home my brother built for his family before he moved to Texas then give it back to him. I wish I had that kind of money. I'd like to own some condos in Provo and rent these to students there.

I could have my nieces manage my condos, collect rent and arrange for contractors to do repairs.

Mosiah 12
37 Now Abinadi said unto them, Have ye done all this? I say unto you, Nay, ye have not. And have ye ataught this people that they should do all these things? I say unto you, Nay, ye have not.

Being condemned by a prophet couldn't have been fun for King Noah or any of his wicked priests.

Beautiful Mornings - Bruce D. Porter

Tribulation and difficult times may lie ahead, yet we too have cause for good cheer and rejoicing, for we live in the last dispensation, when God has restored His Church and kingdom to the earth in preparation for the return of His Son.

“The moral values upon which civilization itself must depend spiral downward at an ever-increasing pace. Nevertheless, I do not fear the future” (“Do Not Fear,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2004, 77, 78).
To His Saints in our day, the Savior has said, “Be of good cheer, and do not fear, for I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you” (D&C 68:6).


Every one of us, and our families, can be armed with the power of God as a defense if we will but remain true to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and let the Spirit be our guide. Trials may come, and we may not understand everything that happens to us or around us. But if we humbly, quietly trust in the Lord, He will give us strength and guidance in every challenge we face. When our only desire is to please Him, we will be blessed with a deep inner peace.

Even in a darkening world, we as Latter-day Saint may sing with joy, knowing that the powers of heaven are with God’s Church and people. We may rejoice in the knowledge that a beautiful morning lies ahead—the dawn of the millennial day, when the Son of God shall rise in the East and reign again on the earth.
There are a lot of things I fear. I fear my blessings. I'm scared of what my immediate future brings even if I know it's good and that it is the best thing for me it is both exciting and very scary. It is scary if things DON'T happen too. If it doesn't happen the way I think it will I better be led somewhere else quick because I want my daughters and I want to be married already. As great as my ward is I'm sick of it too. I can find out what the family ward is and move to it too if I want to do that. I think I should attend a singles ward if it exists however. That is how I show my father-in-heaven I am doing my part. 

There are a lot of girls in my ward I don't want to associate with however. Girls are so conniving and fake. There are a lot that are great but there are enough that I have no desire to speak with at all.
