Day 91: Chatty Cathy

Aha:

I don't think I had ever met someone who had never met a Mormon until today. I don't remember what started it exactly but my supervisor asked me if swearing bothered me. I told him I personally didn't do it but unless someone was swearing at me I wasn't going to tell them they couldn't. He said he'd noticed I didn't swear and asked me why.

This started a whole Q&A session about my beliefs. I had already told him the day before that I didn't drink coffee, tea or alcohol and so today he asked me why that was. We talked about temples, prophets, modern revelation, the Word of Wisdom, tithing, fasting and fast offerings, covenants and temple recommend interviews. 

The whole thing was kinda neat cause I've never met someone who truly had no clue about Mormons. I told him I'm an open book and if he ever had a question I would give him honest answers. I don't think he has any interest in the church, per se, but it was just a no-pressure (for him or me) information session and I really enjoyed it!

Haha:

At another point during the day I had a completely different kind of conversation with a female coworker that involved words like "periods", "cycle", "doing 'business'", "sperm" and "eggs". Lol

Oh how different conversations can be in just a short period of time. Ha!

Day 30: AHHHH! & Hahaha!

Aha:

I had a horribly scary nightmare last night. One of those that makes you feel like...you're not alone in the room when you wake up...catch my drift? Anyway, when I woke up I immediately rolled over, snuggled right up to Clinton, calmed down and fell back asleep. I was so thankful to have him there. My unconscious but comforting protector. Aren't husbands the best for that?

Haha:

Conversation between Clinton and me before bed last night.

Me: I'm funny.

He: You're your own worst critic.

Me: Yah, but I'm your worst critic...ya dummy!

He: Oh yah? You're a dummy.

Me and He: (laughing)

Love that we can make each other laugh.

Day 20: Rediscoveries and Discoveries

Aha:

I don't know what it is about taking naps but they are seriously one of the best wonderful-feeling inducers. If given the choice, I'd normally rather sleep-in than take a nap, but today I got up early and took a nap instead...and all this before noon!

I felt like a whole new woman.

Why did I fight these so much when I was a kid? Napping would be my new hobby were it socially acceptable. My mind was clearer, my energy renewed and my overall well-being was increased two-fold. I love naps. I am grateful for them. They are good to me. I recommend them highly.

Thank you, God, for naps. I love them, and you, very much!

Haha:

I was on the phone with Clinton asking him how things were today, after a while I asked him how Petey was doing.

He: He's fine. Just resting on the floor beside me.

Me: Aww! Is he cute?

He: Nope. He got ugly while you were gone.

Me: (laughing)

He: Yep, it's the damnedest thing.

Lol. My husband's hilarious sometimes.
