Free Weekend

I never thought I would enjoy footzoning as much as I do. It's relaxing to listen to soothing music and massage to the rhythm. Of course, it helps the person who is getting zoned. The smells of the coconut oil and essential oils are nice. It's a great way to unwind. I especially like footzoning my family. It's a great way to bond.
This evening Benjamin and Jaremy are going snow caving. Good luck to them! I will think of them when I soak in a hot bath and sleep soundly in my soft, warm bed. Benjamin is excited! Jaremy has gone before and knows it can be miserable. He's such a good sport, never complaining. I hope they stay warm and sleep well.
We were going to head off to Moab this three day weekend, but Uncle Bill changed our plans. We will be going to his funeral instead. Besides, it looks like it will be raining in Moab anyway. It's kind of nice to have the weekend to catch up and breathe a bit. I want to visit Grandma Butler and some widows. I want to walk across the street to the temple and attend a session. I want to bring order to the garage and pantry. I want to watch a movie and eat popcorn. I want to go to bed early. I want to help the kids get caught up on homework. If I can get those few things done anything else will be icing on the cake. If I get to work on compiling my "Mothers in Zion" book or curl up on the couch with a book that would really be something!
Right now I need to go pick up the kids from school and meander over to the park to get some fresh air, sunshine, and exercise. It's another gorgeous day!! Heavenly Father has created the most beautiful, fascinating world! I'm so grateful I can live and enjoy each day!

A Marvelous Monday!

I spent the day in footzoning class here at home. My teacher, Lu Parkin, and two other women came here to the class. It's fun to learn a way to help my family stay healthy or recover from illness or injury. It's a simple way to bring comfort and love to my family.
The class took most of the school day. Then Deborah, Jaremy's mom, and Robert, her husband, stopped by. She wasn't feeling well so I zoned her feet. Zoning is a kind of reflexology massage in case you were wondering.
The kids were put on the back burner today. That rarely happens, but I wanted to make sure they had some sunshine and exercise. So we went to the park a few blocks away.
When we arrived home my sister, Melissa, called. By the time Jaremy got home at about 5:30 I still hadn't figured out dinner yet. So he said let's get in the van and go out to eat. He said it was my Valentine's present not to have to fix and clean up dinner. He's such a sweetheart! He already took me out to the Iron Gate Grill on Saturday night for Valentine's Day. I wish I'd been more prepared, but the day unexpectedly became overbooked. I felt guilty, but we had fun at Chic'Filet. I'll work harder so we don't have to waste money on silliness.
Yesterday I taught the Relief Society lesson. I mentioned my life is so blessed! It's better than I dreamed it would be, and I dreamed big! I feel so overwhelmed with gratitude for the beautiful life Heavenly Father has given me. I feel my challenges are so easy and small compared to thoses around me. I am humbled by the comforts, wonderful people, beautiful surroundings, and love that are constants in my life. I'm so grateful for a loving, talented husband who is the father of our loving, talented children. I'm so grateful for my knowledge of Jesus Christ and His gospel. I don't know why I'm so blessed when others are lonely, sick, afraid, hungry, sad, impoverished, or without the knowledge of God. It makes me want to share what I have. It makes me want to live better, give more, become more. I hope I can. Life is beautiful!! Life is a gift from our Heavenly Father!!
