1) FHE was at brother Lusty's house for my group this week and we were feed a yummy non-college meal! Aka I didn't have pasta or a sandwich or some sort of food like that and I didn't have to cook either. Needless to say it was GRAND!
2) My mom called me on Monday with crazy news that she was going to LA the next day, which before made me extremely worried, but that night I was to tired I couldn't even worry. I got a little more awake after that for about 5 minutes as I was writing in my journal, saying my prayers, brushing my teeth,etc the normal night time stuff. Then I was out!
3) Tuesday I woke up, said a real sincere prayer for my mom and started a half day fast. (I couldn't do a whole day fast because I was playing soccer that night and needed some water and food in me to play.)
4) My dad constantly sent me updates on how my mom was doing and every time it was great news!
5) Tuesday was my busiest day ever so I had no time to really worry about my mom. I was busy and going from homework to homework to class to more homework to soccer to back to homework to spending a little time with friends here and there. Heavenly Father for sure made me have an extremely busy day and I know it was no coincidence!!! (Last time this happened I went crazy and it wasn't too good for me).
6) All of Tuesday I was relaxed and boy that was a blessing because I was seriously in deep with homework... and my mom, but that is A-Okay! ;-)
7) Wednesday I turned in all of my homework on time, well almost all I didn't turn in math on time.
8) I watched Tangled for the fourth time with to of my really great friends, Chantel and Allie! We also had rice, crab, and some yummy veggies! It was great!
9) When I returned Tangled back to B10, an apartment of girls in my ward, I stayed up talking to them for a very long time and it was AWESOME! Two of those girls in that apartment I'm going to be rooming with next year and I can't be more happy!
10) Yesterday it felt like SD weather! I wore shorts flip flops and wasn't cold!
11) I was able to talk with a girl who really is struggling and I think I actually made a small impact to help her!!! She is in my racquetball class and institute and I just really felt like I needed to talk with her. I was amazing how she actually wanted to and did talk to me!
12) I went visiting teaching yesterday and we missed one of my favorite girls we VT. I was so sad because she told me she was going to be home so I sent her a message saying this "I'm mad at you". It was just one of those funny text.
13) Little to my surprise she came over about 10 minutes later and we talked for a couple solid hours! It was soooo wonderful to catch up with her and I loved every minute of it!
14) Today I might be going to the temple!
15) I get to spend the weekend with the Aegerter's!
16) It is general conference weekend!
17) I should be getting my own copy of Tangled today! :-D :-D :-D
WAHOO thank goodness for the tender mercies and miracles my Heavenly Father gives me! I love life even though there are some trials, looking at the positives is always so much better! Hope everyone else out there is having a great week too! If it hasn't been the best look at the few positives and it is for sure going to make you feel better!

You are right Caitlan, looking at the positives always makes life easier. Another thing I've told my kids is that you are the only one who can determine your happiness. You decide if you will be happy or not - no one else. :) Keep up the great attitude!!
