My mind is all over the place.

This weekend something would happen and I thought that would be a great blog, then something else happened and I thought the same, but Sunday I had 3 different items I thought would be a great blog....come Monday, I can hardly think of any of the three.  I'm afraid it might end up a combo of all three unrelated items and rather all over the place.

Saturday, I had a very wonderful niece house sit for the swamp cooler repair man, while I went to work.  They got it fixed and thankfully it was under warranty, so the money can go towards my new windshield for the car.  I do not know what I would do without my family, always willing to come house sit when I have repair people coming over.

Just in case it would cost something, I left my niece my debt card to pay for anything.  After work I realized I needed a few things from the store on the way home.  So, I popped right into Walmart and did my shopping getting a few things more than I actually "needed" and some I didn't need.  I got to the register and realized I didn't have my debt card, so I was very embarrassed to tell the cashier I couldn't get everything, and just got the milk which I had enough cash for.

Of course while driving home, it dawned on me, I had a checkbook in my purse....when did checks become such an outdated process.  I had checks in my purse and but didn't even think of them as I always use the debt card.  I felt so stupid!  And no, I did not return to the store to get the rest of the items.  I figured, if I waited a couple of days, they will have forgotten about me by then.

With the new year, I have gotten out of the habit of listening to scriptures, church magazines, conference talks, gospel music/hymns, study curriculum, etc. on Sundays. So I decided to get back in the habit.  First the New Testament wasn't set up like I thought it was, so listened to the church magazine for a couple of hours until I had a break long enough to at least set up the first four books.  Then I listed to Matthew.  I forgot how much I REALLY enjoyed listing to those items on a Sunday.  I was totally feeling the spirit (yes, even at work) and the people around me was worried that I was spreading viruses around as I was sniffling and trying to keep the tears in check.  It was a wonderful day of feelings that I had gotten out of the habit of having.

My main goal this week is to get it all set up for next Sunday, so that everything works like a charm and I can get that wonderful spirit again.

Of course, I was also thinking about the fact, I don't know if I could actually attend meetings if I wasn't working because of the panic attacks.  But, I could always continue doing my listening and trying to follow through the curriculum at home.

So, that was my weekend.  I guess a lot happened in such a short time.  But it was a rather productive process.  Now to see if I can continue with the changes I want to make or will I procrastinate like normal and drop the ball.
