Clark received the Melchizedek Priesthood on Sunday. His grandad came up from Casa Grand and gave a good prayer. Because it was REALLY short he was able to remember everything he said and wrote it down for Clark to keep, which was really thoughtful.
(I find riding a bike is easier than walking)
4. Then I come home and turn up the music while I do the dishes!
For those of you who haven't seen my place, it is sans dishwasher!
5. I then get out the old notebook and watch some french educational videos from good old PBS. I write down anything new I learn and then use them all in sentences. I usually watch 3 videos. About 1 1/2 hours.
Then I read a chapter in Paroles de Poilus. It's pretty difficult reading but very interesting-a must. It's letters french soldiers in the front wrote during WWI. Very touching. Sophie gave me the book as a present before I left Le Vesinet. I'm only sorry I'm just now taking the time to read it.
6. Then I clean our apartment. It gets very messy very fast. It's a tiny place crammed with all of my stuff (I have a lot) and with 3 people living in it....It's scary. By the way, my sister-in-law Roxy lives with us. She does a lot of the deep cleaning (things that are hard for me to do).
7. Then I start cooking dinner. I usually cook at 3 or 4 o'clock because I have to go pick up Roxy. She is without a vehicle since just returning home from a mission. She's been saving though and hopefully soon she'll get a car!
8. Then Clark and Roxy come home and are either studying for their G.E.D., exercising, or reading. Clark is reading Brisingr, Roxy is reading These Is My Words, and I am reading The Phantom of The Opera.
Not the most exciting book, but strangely enough I still like it.
I am also reading Les Miserables. Actually, I was reading it about 5 years ago and the book mysteriously disappeared....Sorry Mom (I was borrowing it and I still never replaced it) I was about 3/4 of the way done. So I went to the library and I'm picking up where I left off.
I'm reading the unabridged version so there's no way I'm going to start from the beginning to refresh my memory.
This is my daily routine. I've sent my resume out to plenty of companies but I haven't had any luck. I signed up with an employment agency and they said right now no company is hiring in the HR department. I'm not too keen on taking a receptionist position because it would be a drastic pay cut. (and who likes answering phones anyway?)
I really want to go back to school next semester so I'm studying hard on my own to get my french back where it used to be. I have about a year and a half to graduate if I went full time. I'm crossing my fingers about finding a job so I can enroll.
This is a flyer for a fundraiser for Christian & Stephanie Nielson. It's going to be a fun, entertaining night! Next Wednesday, September 10th! (Click on flyer to see it enlarged) Mark your calendars now!!!
