A couple days late is better than never!
This week I am so grateful for General Conference! Having a living prophet and other leaders that are led by inspiration from our Heavenly Father is fantastic! Everything I was able to listen to was so relevant to me. One of my favorites, that I took copious notes on, was in the Saturday afternoon session by Elder Jorg Klebingat. Text and video are now out, but you can watch it here! I love it because it made me do a personal evaluation- how would I really feel if I had to stand before the Lord right now? I loved that he not only asked that question, but then gave us steps as to how to increase our spiritual confidence. My favorite step was to be "really, really, really good at repenting": do it constantly, daily, minute to minute, not just day by day. I can really improve in that area. Another talked I really liked was by Elder Godoy of the Seventy. Watch it here! Another one that had a list, this time tools to make sure we are choosing the best possibilities in life, not just good ones. Another thing I can work on...

I am also very grateful for continued work, even with random hours, with the Salt Lake City Library. After our trip in September, I was showing some very empty weeks ahead. I don't like empty weeks- I hate being bored! And even with everything I like to do (read, quilt, cross stitch, crochet, I could keep going), when I don't have anything scheduled such as work or church activities, I get bored. Like out of my mind bored. I am glad that this week and next and the one after that are filled with work shifts! I rest a lot easier knowing that I will be working, so that will bring in money, so I can pay my bills! It is so nice to have managers that ask me specifically if I'm available. I'm so super grateful that the City lets me sub for them! Not only do I get to work with amazing people, I get to be around books all day! Plus, I get to work in this beautiful and amazing building!
