140 Agency

Class was interesting. Mary who was in my licensing class also took it along with experienced agents/brokers. There was one broker there with over 40 years of experience. Another broker from Bear Lake was there. She has over 20 years of experience. The other agent has about 20 years experience. Then there was Mary and me. The older agents kept sharing things with us which was nice.

I was complaining about all the fees and Gordon called attention to all the experience in the room and explained how some people enter and then leave the field and that if you are willing to work you will be successful. I discovered this amazing chocolate sweetened with Stevia or erithytol the ONLY sweetener recommended not only by Death to Diabetes and also Yoli  AND made in North Logan that Smith's Marketplace was selling. I need to stock up because right now it's 3 for a $1 at Smith's and that price is unheard of for ANY "healthy" chocolate. I tested my blood sugar right away because I wanted to know what it would do to my BS and it was at 154 and that was without waiting the 2 hours you are supposed to wait to test to get an accurate reading. This stuff is amazing. DEFINITELY getting more at that price.

I need to focus on my real estate activities too. It's easy for me to neglect them when I'm doing it part time. I get why many agents believe I can't be successful part time. Because it's not my sole source of income it's easy to neglect because I can and still maintain my life. There is no fire under my feet. I'm still going to eat whether I sell a house or not. I still love everything I hear about it however and I'm excited to make it work. First I need to pay all the many fees. It's the last day of the module and everyone's having parties and offering me snacks I can't eat. It's a good thing I brought my stir-fry, broccoli and cheese, celery and ranch and then my chocolate. My organic candy I like to buy is on sale now too. I noticed almond milk is on sale as well which I'm going to need to mix my shakes with. My BS is pretty stable now and it has come down but not where I want it to be yet. It was frustrating me at the 170s. Now it's at the 140s usually but it comes down too although it never dips below 100 and my goal is under 90. That is why I finally decided to try Yoli, so I can get it below 100 and 90.

Alkalete is a pill taken while on the transformation kit to rid the body of toxins built up from eating badly for so long. Following this you continue to take it to alkalize the body but not at the amount done before. Healthy eating practices are followed but a cheat day of eating anything happens once a week. I looove that plan. If we eat well for the most part ALL the time it'll be alright. Eating that Red Baron pepperoni pizza I smothered with spinach didn't seem to affect me at all. I'm really happy about that.

I hate that I have to work tonight for Judy but it was the only way for me to attend my real estate class earlier today. I need 18 RE credits in a 2-year period. This knocks out 3. The new agent class is 12 credits meaning after May I'll only need 3 which is just 1 class. Bridgerland is affordable. Thank goodness!!!

Life is sooo good. I was thinking about how many options I've gained here in Logan. I am on a farm and I don't have easy access to restaurants or plays and concerts and stores or my family BUUUT when I get out of here I will have experience running an academic library, my MBA, my real estate license with another side career I intend to establish proficiency in, ALSO I have gained the amazing experience of working in the temple, something I never would've done if I hadn't attended Bro. Salmond's institute class. He is an amazing teacher. I just don't really like interacting with people who look and are older than my mother which is what his classes consist of. While I gain much in spiritual knowledge the whole point of a singles institute class is to interact with people who share my beliefs who I can date and possibly marry. I didn't feel it was a wise use of my time.

It doesn't help that I look a lot younger than I am. I like that however. It would be fantastic to get married too while I'm here BUT then there is no way in hell I want to live here any longer than I have to do that. My MBA has already extended the original 2 years I wanted to be here. The temple has moved the month from March to September.

It has been so difficult to find someone to give Dave a ride to church. I just texted Rich to see if he can either give him a ride after home teaching me at the church or teach me at noon instead at my house to give me enough time to pick him up then go to the church to greet. YEA!!! Rich is going to move it to noon at my house giving me enough time to pick Dave up AND greet. Rich is awesome. That didn't take any time at all. He has his kids Sunday too. I didn't want to impose BUT this is going to work!!!

I don't get why people are so reluctant to meet and get to know new members. It doesn't require much work at all.

Ether 11
13 And it came to pass that the people hardened their hearts, and would not ahearken unto their words; and the prophets bmournedand withdrew from among the people.
22 And they did areject all the words of the prophets, because of their bsecret society and wicked abominations.
How would it be to be a prophet in the midst of such corruption and wickedness. To be a prophet who withdraws from a people because he is ignored. How would it be to be one of the prophet's children, to have friends who are good but that you can't help because of their parents. I always get annoyed because I can't find anyone righteous AND fun AND good-looking AND intelligent. I'm sure they had an even tougher time. I don't think the Lord expects you to have to force yourself to be with anyone. Free choice is sacred. BUT what if you don't have any choices? I know the next life is the opportunity to make up for those situations BUT I still want my family in this life. Am I destined to live life alone? I am up to the challenge. Isn't the most valuable thing for me to do however to become a wife and mother. Except for my diabetes stuff I am ready OR at least I will be when I bring my BS down and lose weight and can have healthy pregnancies although by the time I get married adoption may be my only option. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I just want that experience of seeing my characteristics reflected in my children.

I want that blessing. I know nothing will be denied me in the end, it's just small comfort a lot of the time.
