A Few Things I Find Interesting

I'm sure I could add to this list as I go but for now...

I find it interesting that people still honk their horns when they're waiting out side for someone. Don't you have a cell phone? Don't you know its 7:30 AM and not everyone has a kid going to school that early? Don't you realize that there are like 10 houses, in incredibly close proximity to you that you are, quite possibly, disturbing. Didn't your parents teach you any better manners? And to end with the question that I started with...

DON'T YOU HAVE A CELL PHONE?

On a more serious note...

I find it interesting that I am always prompted to fast on Fast Sunday. I have a tendency to disregard my promptings as me just being silly, then something happens and I realize it was the spirit prompting me. But I always realize after the fact. I use to always have a feeling like I should fast and hardly ever did, and then I'd get to church and it was Fast Sunday. One time I felt like I should fast for my brother-in-law. I started it but then quite half way through thinking I was being silly... little did I know that, that same day Ryan was called in for an interview he didn't expect and needless to say he didn't get it. I feel a little responsible. I disregarded a prompting that might have helped. Well, this morning I woke up and was reading my scriptures and thought... hmmm... I should fast... I then thought that was a bad idea because its Super Bowl Sunday and we're going to a friends house for dinner... and it won't be 24 hours because I didn't start it last night. But then I though... I don't see why I can't do a mini fast and just go from now until dinner time... So I started my fast, took a shower and started getting ready. About 10 minutes ago I get two doorbell rings and a few very large poundings on the door... It was the deacons coming around to pick up tithing... its Fast Sunday! Every time! Why do I ever disregard promptings when they are always right?!

PS... Those kids should not be knocking like the dang police! Freaked me out!

My Friend's Writes for the Paper

Okay, so one of my friends from church just started writing for the Davis Reporter and she asked her friends to share her article so she gets more views. The more views she gets the more she gets paid. I agreed to it, never having read any of her stuff, and I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm highly critical as you may know... anyhow, it was amazing and I really loved it. You should read it... a.) to support her, and b.) because its a really good article. Seriously! Anyhow, hope you like. Click the image below to be redirected to her full article.
