TUESDAY JANUARY 25TH, 2011

I woke up at 4 when the alarm went off for Sheila and then I got up at 7.  I read my chapter in John and then I got into the shower.  I dressed and did my 37 pushups and then had my prayer and then I came downstairs to the office.  After checking out my stuff on the computer I went out and got my paper.  It was just a bit chilly but other wise it was clear skies with not rain or snow in sight.  I read my newspaper and then worked on my papers to get Richard's work ready for the day.  I figured that he'd be here around 10 am or so.  When it got close to 11 I was a bit bothered.  When he finally got here he seemed justified to be 'late' and asked me if i had been outside.  I was not aware that it had snowed and was surprised to see maybe as much as 4 inches of snow on the roads.  I knew that that would surprise Sheila when she came out of the temple because for sure it wasn't snowing at 5 am when she left home.  I knew I would see her until after 2 because she was going to lunch with some of the sisters from her temple shift for a shower thing.  Luckily by the time that she left the temple the roads were clear and she did not have any real trouble.  She was only home for about an hour because she had to leave to take Linzi to counseling and then she got back home about 5:40 p.m.  My day has been here in the office all day and pretty routine for me and pretty boring to anyone else.  I did get some things done, but nothing special happened to me.  I did have a really nice thought this morning that I wrote down about exercising my happiness option, but that probably wouldn't mean anything to anyone but myself. (Sheila did like it though)  Just before I started this entry I found that Sherri had made a comment on Grandma's corner about Brooklyn and Spencer's upcoming activities. I know there is so much going on and I feel bad that we just can't do it all.  But we will try and do what we can.  But don't give up on us.  Keep us informed of what is going on and we all will do what we can.   good night
