Today was rather different than usual. Instead of having our Mission Devotional, the whole mission gathered outside t the Conference Center for a group photo. The actual photo, of course, took about 15 seconds, but getting hundreds of people arranged was quite the job!
After the photo, since this was my day off, I did a couple of loads of laundry, mostly the swap meet clothes. I was so pleased that all of the clothes seemed to make it through the washing process, especially a nice grey blazer which I was a little worried about.
As I came out of the laundromat, one of the building people stopped me to at that she would send the maintenance men to fix the lock on the sliding glass door. Because of that I decided not to travel to South Jordan to get my hair cut. I may do that Wednesday, or even next Monday. I decided to replenish my supply of flax seed crackers nod also make some no bake peanut butter cookies. The cookies were a definite experiment, as the recipe calls for butter--and the only fat I have is olive oil! I was surprised and please that this worked! My other cooking for the day was to cook more wheat.
I did eventually go out to shop a bit. I took a different route and went to Welfare Square, to the Home Storage Center. I bought a can of black beans, a bag of hot chocolate mix, and some sugar. My goal is to manage without the sugar, but one never knows when it might come in handy. This afternoon I was asked to take a sister a meal in a few days, and I just might make a regular dessert to go with that.
The repairmen had been in while I was gone, so I now can open the sliding glass door, which is very good. Although I have an air conditioner, sometimes it is nice to just have fresh air.
This evening one of the couples in our MTC group hosted a family home evening. About half of our group came. We each shared what our assignments are like. Helping in the Family History Library is one of the least complicated, actually. I am glad to be serving there!
