Weekends

They are full. Especially Saturdays which are packed. During the warm months I swim laps 30 minutes and dance a couple hours at free outdoor concerts in the evenings. My priority has been temple attendance these last 7-1/2 years and the Family History Center is where I learned to navigate familysearch.org. Since August 2016 I've made hundreds if not a thousand corrections on my ancestral lines, thereby finding even more names that need temple work done. Presently we are over 1600 completed ordinances. Helping has been my own children, their spouses, the youth and brethren. I've recently realized that my mother never entered a temple. She died ten months after her baptism and there was no temple in 1962 here anyway. Sundays can be long for me and that's why I make every effort to attend a fireside, event or concert on Temple Hill which breaks up the Sabbath nicely and gives me social interaction again after church. I'm known for walking to church, three miles round-trip. My Scrabble Club and I meet often for pot luck and a game or two. I enjoy the visits of my children with their families and times I visit them. Life is good and I'm grateful.
