This week I had a lot of fun with some of my friends and family. On Monday I went to lunch with Kellie Cooke and we had a great visit. (she doesn't like her picture taken) It was so nice just sitting and visiting. I love Kellie more all the time.
Then Larry had a day off Tuesday and we had planned on going to the Temple but he was really sick. I did what I could for him and then I went to the Temple with my kids, Justin, Natalie and Kevin. I was really glad Kevin drove because it was snowing pretty hard in the canyon and it would have freaked me out. We went to the Logan Temple because the Bountiful is closed right now. It was a nice session and I just felt good. We went to Fredrico's after for some lunch. I loved spending time with my kids......I sure do love them all!
Since Larry was sick and I didn't really have any other responsiblities we snuggled a lot. I didn't worry about getting sick. I just loved being by my sweetie. So it was nice having him home sick for a few days. On Wednesday I felt that Jen Simpson needed to talk. I was right and so I met her at Bagels & Buns and really we just talked. I brought home the bagel sandwich for Larry. (at least half of it and the chips) Jen had been down and had thought about calling Larry or one of the boys for a blessing but kept talking herself out of it. I was really glad I had that "feeling" about Jen and that she was able to get a blessing. I love Jen! (I forgot to take a picture)
Thursday I went bowling and did quite well. At least I was consistant. I like bowling because I can tell I make others happy. Some even tell me that I am their favorite and they love that I love life. I just hope to spread happiness around. I think that is my purpose on Earth.....to help others smile! After bowling I met Ann for lunch. It seems that Ann and I only see each other once a year or so and we miss each other. I love Ann and when we talk we always notice how alike we are. We think and feel a lot of the same ways. We totally get each other. It's cool to have friends that are so like me. (I have 3 that are so similar) Thursday Night Kimi and Jared had a choir concert which is always enjoyable.
Friday I was a sub for bowling. I improved each game and had a good time. (of course I did) That night Larry and I went out with the Taylors. Kim and I grew up together and she was even in my Wedding Line. Larry plays soccer with Kim and her kids so we see them every week. I am glad that we decided to go to dinner. We really did it to get our kids together. Braxton and Karleigh came too. I think they had fun together but I don't think it will ever go further than just friends.
Needless to say this was a busy and fun week! I loved every day. Larry teased me about not having to cook since I went out so much. I brought him home leftovers though and I have noticed they have been eaten. I did cook dinner a few times this week. So my family was taken care of and so was I.
Friday
good week!
Car Wash
I needed to post this event all by itself. It happened on Wednesday before I met up with Jen. I had gone to the store to get some medicine for Larry and decided to stop for gas and a car wash. I was going through a car wash like the picture. You put your car in nutural and enjoy the ride. Right away I noticed water dripping from my sun roof. I was trying to see if it was open and about that time water and suds came right in the passenger window which was completely open. I just bust up laughing as the inside of my car got soaked. I was trying to get the windows closed and noticed the back passenger window was also opened a little. I am not sure how the windows got opened but I was laughing my guts out. Seriously it was so funny to me. Have you ever laughed hard by yourself? I think it makes it even funnier. I couldn't stop laughing. I pulled out of the wash and was really glad that this place had towels to dry your car. I needed a bunch. I grabbed the towels and wiped the inside down first. Water was pretty much everywhere. The back mat was pretty soaked but I was able to get it all wiped up.
My car ended up being a little (or a lot) cleaner than I had anticipated. I was still laughing and decided to share why with the girl wiping down her car. I asked her if she wanted to hear something funny and shared my story. She laughed too and I told her it was okay to share but I didn't want her saying "some old lady" went through the car wash with her windows open. I told her I blamed it on being 50 but she didn't need to share that part. Her mouth dropped and her eyes went wide and she said she thought I was only in my 30's. (like her) Right on baby! It was totally worth going through the car wash with my windows open. The girl made my day! She also wanted to know what creams I used.....I wish I would have been quicker and told her it was the wax from the car wash. hahaha
