Assertive
For the first time in my life I was able to describe myself as assertive. Awesome, I know. It's been dealing with my ex girlfriends this last few months. Also, I now have a goal to lose 25 lbs by my birthday. I figure 25 lbs will be a good amount, considering the first 10 lbs is just water. I'm already off to a really good start, one full day with excercise and eating right. Now, just 2.5 more months to go. 25 lbs is really only half of my goal, I'd like to lose around 50, but I figure that 25 will be a good kickstart. In other news, stuff happens..... and things..... with the stuff. So that's good. (I don't know either) I have been to the driving range a couple times the past couple weeks. I love being out in the sunshine, and I really love imagining people's faces on the ball right before I smash the crap out of it. That's fun AND rewarding. Plus it's good excercise and I've noticed that it really works my core, all good things. Not only that, but to be able to afford to go to the driving range once a week I have to give up eating out for two meals, so the benefits are two-fold. We have a home-teaching blitz again tonight. It should be fun. My companion luckily set up 2 appointments for us tonight, and the old eq president wants me to help him visit someone in between my appointments so it should be a great night. Hopefully we don't all get sick with all this crap in the air today though, my goodness. Well, I guess that's enough randomness for today. I hope everyone is doing well and if you ever want to go to the driving range, hiking, fishing or to the temple PLEASE CALL ME!! You have a standing "I'd love to go" from me, so it wouldn't even be a call to invite me, just a call to let me know what time we're going. Other than that, have a great conference weekend! :)

Yeah, the air is driving me crazy! It's making my eyes water, and I'm INSIDE! I can't wait for the wind to die down and the rain to come to get rid of some of the dust and smoke.
I'm proud of you for being assertive. That's awesome! And congrats on your weight goal! Sounds like the golf is helping with that. :)
And, along with your standing "I'd love to go", you have a standing "You're invited to dinner...!" Every night. Well, maybe the two nights a week that you have stopped eating out. :) You don't even have to call first...just stop in. We eat between six and six thirty. (And if you miss dinner, I'm sure we will have leftovers!)
We have 'talked' about setting up a standing temple night - like every other Wednesday or the 1st Friday of the month or something - but haven't gotten too far. It would probably help us all. I've been practicing a little assertiveness this week - called Vickie & asked her to breakfast - wrote notes to the sisters who spoke in conference - visited my Mom - all good things and it feels good.
Great job, Mom!! :) I'm seriously smiling ear to ear! We totally need a temple night, but we'll rotate it around to hit the salt lake area ones. Just pick a day. My vote is the first Friday of the month, that way we get it in early. :)
Come on up and go fishing! After June, that is. I'm too cheap to buy a non-resident license.
Or come up and go moose hunting.
Or come up to the Anchorage temple.
You're always welcome and invited.
You're like a totally Blue personality, right?
I don't remember if I'm mostly white or mostly blue, but it's about 50 50 either way. that's why I'm so surprised. I think I have 1 or 2 red, and maybe 2 or 3 yellow. Blues are assertive whereas reds are bossy.
