Urban Poly Princess

She's not here yet which means we can't have our meeting until she shows up. I tried to take off my dark teal nail polish but my remover doesn't take it off. I took it off as much as I could and just painted over it with my shiny creme stuff. The teal still shows through and it's probably not going away until I get my nails done again. They look silvery grey now. Marjorie did show up and we were able to discuss things.

I looove looking at the calendar now. Yesterday Katie told me I was glowing and that I just looked really happy. I'm trying not to let it show too much BUUUT I am so excited to be leaving. Except for my real estate venture I don't have anything else lined up BUUUT I can't wait!!!

Helaman 6
25 Now behold, it is these secret oaths and covenants which Alma commanded his son should not go forth unto the world, lest they should be a means of bringing down the people unto destruction.

The power of covenants BOTH good and evil is emphasized here and attests to the strength and importance of making and keeping covenants.

I have 2 more Saturdays left of working in the temple. I still haven't seen the latest new film. I have 2 weeks to go at work and 4 days!!! I looove that!!! 

There is an opening for the manager of the Glendale Library. I want the Marmalade Library manager job. This means they will be looking for librarians soon which I am excited about. I roasted cauliflower AND broccoli at lunchtime. It was good but it didn't have the crunch I was looking for. Also I left a bulb of garlic on the counter and it was gross and disgusting when I tried to use it. Saaad. What a waste of garlic so I just used olive oil and salt. I'd like to stick it in the oven again when I go home. I want the roasted crunch factor. These tasted good but they were just mixed heated veggies. 

Your Four Minutes - Gary E. Stevenson
This life is your four minutes. While you are here, your actions will determine whether you win the prize of eternal life. The prophet Amulek described, “This life is the time … to prepare to meet God; yea, behold the day of this life is the day … to perform [your] labors.”
Self-discipline is needed. Daily prayer, scripture study, and church attendance must be the foundation of your training. A consistent pattern of obeying the commandments, keeping the covenants you have made, and following the Lord’s standard found in For the Strength of Youth is required.
Now, you may be thinking to yourself, “I already blew it. My four minutes are already a disaster. I may as well give up.” If so, stop thinking that, and never think it again. The miracle of the Atonement can make up for imperfections in our performance. 
I express my utmost confidence in your abilities. You have the Savior of the world on your side. If you seek His help and follow His directions, how can you fail?

It is almost 3pm. I am sooo glad it's the weekend and I can go home soon!!! I need to pick up some club soda so I can cook my shrimp. I could also get some cashews and condensed milk then I could make my honey glazed cashew shrimp. Yes interesting because the recipe doesn't actually have honey in it. Condensed milk, mayo cashews and shrimp.
