Day 50, 51 - Way 50, 51

Monday (50)- I am really excited to be in my web-design class. I learned a few tricks on photoshop today, and I know I'm going to LOVE this stuff! I also went to work today and tried to prepare myself for the training that I was in charge of on Tuesday. I feel so blessed that I have the opportunity to grow professionally right now. I really feel like I am finding a great place for myself.
Today was also Banana Eve! Beezer, Bryce and I went to visit our friends in Magna. We took two banana cream pies. The first one we ate with Clay, Kenny and Rob. We also gave them each a beach towel with monkeys and bananas in the design. It was great to see them react when they realized we were being nice to them, because banana day is usually a day full of pranks. They were TOTALLY FOOLED! After we ate the first pie and visited for a while, we all said goodnight and were heading out the door, when Beezer grabbed the other pie and smashed it in Kenny's face! Then he wiped his face all over Beezer's face and then she wiped it on Rob! It was great. I am so blessed to have friends with th ability to laugh and have fun, and to carry on a tradition for 8 years!

Tuesday (51)- This was a long day. First, I had to go to my geography class. Which was fun, but I was a little stressed out about the afternoon, so I didn't really enjoy it like I should have. I did training with a few students at noon. It went alright, I realized during the all, that I still have too much work to do still for our Summit on June 10th-12th. After the first training I worked on a lot of loose ends in the office and moved our entire library and supply area to the opposite side of our office, to make room for new cubicles being put in.
After work I came home and did some gardening until the wind got so strong it knocked me over. I went inside and after a few minutes, the power went out! I had to do my evening conference call training outside on my cell phone because it was too dark inside for me to see my notes. Mandy and I had to run to the grocery store after the call to buy D batteries, because half the flashlights in the house didn't work. We got them just in time for the power to come back on!
Now here's the miracle that I want to share.....My parents listened to the prophets counsel to be prepared for emergencies. No, they didn't have enough of the right kind of batteries for the flashlights I wanted to use, but if we had to, we had plenty of candles and other flashlights to see whatever we needed. I also knew that they had prepared our home if we had needed emergency food supply, blankets and first aid. I am grateful for their faith and trust in the Lord's appointed, because I am reaping the rewards of their hard work. Now my challenge, if you do not have a 3 year supply, 1 year supply, or most importantly a 72 hour kit, make a promise to your self that you will do something about that in the next week. If you do something, please leave a comment telling me what you did. Even if it's buying one box of Band-Aids, do something, you will not regret it. Mom and Dad, if you are reading this, thank you for preparing for so long for emergencies, too bad it's all here in the United States. Go to the store this week and buy some extra food and supplies in case your emergency hits! Please! Thank you!
