Service

This week flew by, I cant believe I have only been back for 1 week! wow time flys.. I had a great short week. Lots of things happened. My life has made a nice transition into this brand new year.

Saturday I spent 90% of my time serving. My student council kids are required to do 25 hours of community service per term. So as a council they try to do some of their hours together, so yesterday we went downtown Las Vegas to a thrift store, where we thought we would be sorting clothes. Instead they had us painting bathrooms. It really wasn't that bad, I think the kids had a good time. I really love working with kids.

I am so happy with my life at this point. I use to think that I could only be happy if I was married, but I believe now that that isn't the answer. I know that marriage brings a lot of happiness, but no one person can truly make you happy. And I believe I have finally realized that for myself.

Ruth, thats so nice of you doing service. Does it count towards your community service that the judge gave you? Just kidding, Tyler tried to call you tonight.
