Ticket Offer Declined by one, accepted gratefully by another. 26 October 2016

I traveled down to South Jordan this morning to get my hair cut.  I went there because I wanted to offer the ticket to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert to the hairdresser I met when I first got my hair cut here in Utah. I have been waiting for several months to have an invitation to an event on Temple Square, since she said she had never been there in the several years since she moved here.  She ended up declining to take the ticket, telling me that her son will be coming back here in December and they will be busy getting him an apartment so that he can go back to school in Logan.

I am sad she declined, but I have already given that ticket and the second one to the sister who prompted me to request tickets in the first place and told me how to possibly be successful. She had told a lot of the missionaries on our floor, but very few, including she, herself, actually got tickets.  I was more than happy to pass the two on to her, as she had mentioned to me that she and her friend were going to take turns standing in line to possibly fill up unused seats--and that just does not sound like fun in early December. So she was delighted to get the two tickets.  Had the hairdresser accepted one, I knew of another sister who could have used just a single ticket, so none of them would have been wasted, that is for sure.

Once my hair was done I got to go to the big warehouse grocery store.  I was glad they had coconut sugar in bulk, in case I want to make more Apple Crisp.  The other two times I was at that chain the container was empty.  They also had peppermint wafers on sale, I guess for Halloween.  I got enough to have 5 for each of the times I plan to feed young elders, and 2 for each other Sunday when I have dinner with my Cuban sister. I also got Tropical Krab Salad for my lunch--YUM!

I got to talk with my Sweetheart this morning and this evening, which was delightful!

My afternoon at the Library was a bit stressful as I had a full schedule for certifying, and the instructions have changed.  A bit of good news was a reply to my feedback on the removal of The Learning Center in FamilySearch Get Help.  There is supposed to be a new, improved Learning Center coming.  I hope it does not take too long!

This evening at the Library I reviewed the certification manual somewhat and then I worked on my own lines, cleaning up the records and attaching a few more--my brain was just to fuzzy to work on anything else.
