I headed out pretty early this morning, wanting to spend some time pondering and preparing for what I wanted to share in Sacrament Meeting today. I had intended to get up earlier than I did, but I was tired, and when my alarm went off, I think I bumped it out multiple times. 🙃 I … Continue reading 2025-07-13 (Sunday) — Just… Grateful 😊

Let's just say that the night didn't go as expected. 🙃 I close my eyes fairly early, I think, but I was wide awake. I had yawned a few times, as if I could have fallen asleep, but my brain woke up and just started churning. Front of the things that was turning about was … Continue reading 2025-07-12 (Saturday) — Humbled and Grateful

Oh! I just realized it's 7-Eleven day! 🙃 Happy 7-Eleven day! 🥤 Not much to say about today, I don't think. But! When I woke up for good this morning, I woke up to lovely little news: I had reached out to Amazon last night (or the night before?) because the power station I just … Continue reading 2025-07-11 (Friday) — A Templing We Go!

It's funny how a day can just end up a blur. But I guess with my brain generally occupied and often going 90 miles an hour, it's probably not really a surprise. It could also just be old age. 😆 Didn't end up getting to bed until a lot later yet again, so I slept … Continue reading 2025-07-10 (Thursday) — Return of the Bean Smoothie 😎

Alohar! 😊 Not really all that much to say about today. I would say it was more of a comfortable blessing day? So I just realized that when gratitude is at the forefront of my mind, even uncomfortable blessing days are actually more like comfortable blessing days because I'm grateful for everything, so it all … Continue reading 2025-07-09 (Wednesday) — No Fly Zone

I love Temple Tuesday. 🥰 Today has been such a wonderful day--beginning to end. 😊 I actually got a decent night's sleep last night, despite being parked in the parking area just off the side of the highway. I had my fan running and my white noise app pumping rain sounds to my marshmallow ear … Continue reading 2025-07-08 (Tuesday) — Beautiful, From Start to Finish

Well, it's 6:30 right now, and I'm getting a jump on riding my journal entry because I'm likely going to be driving to Casper tonight, or at least a good chunk of the way tonight, and I want to be as ready to just fall asleep as I possibly can be when I decide to … Continue reading 2025-07-07 (Monday) — On To TT5!

Much better today. 😊 I'm grateful for the gospel and for forgiveness and for love. I'm grateful that every day can be a new beginning. I'm grateful that every moment can be a new beginning. I'm grateful to have a sister nearby who's encouraging and cheerleading and lifting me when I struggle. ... I slept … Continue reading 2025-07-06 (Sunday) — Not Down For Long 🙏

I'm not in a good place. I'm tired, frustrated, angry, discouraged... and I know I shouldn't be, and I am anyway, and... I'm just... Not in a good place. I feel like I just keep making crap decision after crap decision, and I feel like no matter how hard I try, I just make things … Continue reading 2025-07-05 (Saturday) — Tough One

Happy Independence Day! 🎆🇺🇲🎇 Currently, we're getting a fireworks show from nature, with something like 55 mph wind gusts, and rain pounding down hard enough that it's actually leaking in through my roof onto my bed through the bolt holes that I used for the solar panels. Oops. 🙃 Gratefully, I'm not the me of … Continue reading 2025-07-04 (Friday) — Precious Freedom, Of Multiple Kinds
