...

Someone told me not so long ago that I am getting dumb. My solution... I am going to reread all the classic AP books I read in highschool. Not that it will really help. I also have a giant list of books one of my residents have suggested. So far I have only ready two books... not even tough ones. "The Spell" by Charlotte Bronte (i do not suggest. It was dumb!) and "The Last Lecture" by Robert Pauche? None of those are advanced books. The business office manager/associate director at work suggested the second. It is a great book!!!

This past weekend was Stake Conference. Sunday we had a YSA conference with Elder Marlin K. Jensen came to speak with us. Some of my most spiritual experiences were at Ydaho when we had Home Evenings with Elder Bednar. His question and Answer sessions really uplifted me spiritually and I gained so much insight from him. That is what this man did. He said it was the first thing he learned from Elder Bednar. I just got goosebumps. I felt the spirit so strong that meeting. It was a great way to start the week.

Well, I really can not think of what else I needed to blog. I have lost 9 pounds. Only because I have been reading so much and forget to eat breakfast and dinner and work food is a very low fat, low salt diet.... OOPS

I need to start exercising again. I am just not happy and I see pictures of a year ago and it is rather embarrassing so I am going to go on the routine we used at school awhile back. 0.5 miles (I know it isn't allot!!!) for one week, 1.0 miles for one week, 1.5 miles for one week.... and then on the days cycle in the incredible work out tapes I have but never use. At work we were talking about how i should bring them and we could do them at 9pm when it gets quiet. That is an idea!!!
