I did have this image in my mind of what my day would be like. But I have known for a long, long time that reality is rarely the way I picture it. A very small example just occurred. I had just turned off the TV and the copy machine machine and then I locked my office door and typed the first sentence. 'knock knock' at my door. Charles (one of my guys) was there turning in his papers that I had given him this morning. He said that he had a good day so I am curious enough to pause and see what he did for himse4lf and me. (He served 9 papers.)
As for my day I had things in mind and I actually did accomplish some of them. Even though I personally did not go anywhere today my best friend did do some errands for me and got the mail which changed what I had to do. I don't normally get much new work in the mail, but I was expecting some work from a new client in Provo and it was in the mail. So I changed direction and got the new stuff processed for Monday along with the other stuff I had waiting. I like it when I have my next day's work all ready and don't have to wail for stuff to come in in the morning for that day. I got lucky at least twice last week because Richard brought in a good day's worth of work in the morning, but that usually doesn't happen. So right now I am prepared for Monday to have a good start to the week and the 9 papers that Charles served today will only make it better.
I also had this idea in mind that I wanted to work on my income taxes today. With my change of plans I decided against that, but changed my mind again when I finished my office work and spent some time pondering my priesthood lesson and found the day not over. So I did some preliminary gathering together of figures and hope to be able to finish up my first 'draft' of that come Monday. Now at 8:16 my mind is totally turned to Sunday. I want to do my retiring ritual and get to bed early as I won't have the luxury of sleeping easy and until 8 in the morning. My desire is that I do my Sunday as well, if not better, as I did my
Saturday today. Oh, by the way BYU Hawaii lost their championship game today by 3 points. But for a 7 seed to end up # 2 is good. And BYU's # 1 ranked rugby team did win their match 99-0! (true) Night--
Usually this says "nick said" It's Sherri. I don't believe in luck. I think it's a blessing given to you for your efforts in righteous living, particularly paying tithing. For each law given, there is a blessing attached. You are reaping the rewards of obedience.
