Weekend Ahhhs...

Dear All,
Well, here I am back at work. I feel so much better than last week. I think I needed some sun and fun. We (Kimberly, Nina, and I) went to Sea World on Friday. It was sunny and cool. I got a nice pink glow from the sunshine, and I walked for hours. My hip was screaming after a few hours, so I told the girls they should just go ahead; and I would enjoy people watching, and the shops. I am proud of myself. I didn't buy one thing! We had lunch there, and waffle ice cream hot fudge sundaes, later before leaving. Apparently, they had an earthquake in L.A. while we were there. We didn't feel it, but Brandon did at home. Kimberly got to see her beloved manatees, and I saw the sea otters. Nina is partial to the polar bears. It was very relaxing to go for the day. I was in bed by 10pm. I slept in until 11am! I couldn't believe it! I went to lunch with Belle, who came down off the hill (from Big Bear City), and then we went to see "Ghosts of Girl Friends Past" with Matthew McConahey. Love that man's voice. Smooth. It was very cute and we laughed alot. An enjoyable time. Then yesterday I went to church, for all 3 meetings, and it was very uplifting. It was Fast Sunday where we fast for 2 meals, and give an offering of money for the poor instead. This is the way we can feed those who are in need. Times are tough, so there are more in need. It works very well. Then I took a nap for 2 hours! I made a roast and spanish rice for dinner. There was a womens fireside last night; so I went to that, and had a wonderful time discussing a book "A Heart Like His" I think it was, which was all about opening up your heart and loving your fellow man the way Christ did. We had Strawberry Shortcake for desert and great conversation. It lasted about 2 hours. I got home around 920pm. I walked in the door just as Brandon was leaving. He had a concerned look on his face. When I asked him where he was going he said "to look for you!" I was surprised, since I had told him where I'd be...Apparently, these firesides usually only take 1 hour, so he got worried. Giggle, giggle. I did not do my laundry this weekend...I rested. Boy, what a difference! I am a new woman. I was fed spiritually and physically as well as emotionally. A great weekend. I did make Jacque's Cranberry Cookies for everyone at work, since I was feeling so energetic. So today everyone is saying how awesome they are! Thank you Jacque...and no comments about me looking tired! Love ya, Kim
