Christmas Eve Eve's Events

YAY IT’S CHRISTMAS EVE!!!

I've been reading a blog for so long that my eyes are shaking the screen. Does that ever happen to anyone else? It makes my brain hurt.

I feel like telling about my day. Yep, this feels right.

I went to bed at 4:30 last night (Saturday night) because I can so I do. I love being awake at night- there is no time constraint. Life starts over when you open your eyes no matter what time you close them. So life started over today at about 8:30 when Michelle woke me up to get ready for church. She had to pound on my bedroom door because it was locked. Last night I brushed my teeth and washed my face in the bathroom then walked to the laundry room to turn off the light then when I was walking back past the bathroom a noise happened inside and when it’s dark and I’m alone I start making up things. And as I walk down the hallway away from the bathroom I’m facing a giant mirror at the end, and I kept picturing a silhouette coming out of the bathroom behind me so I ran to my room and locked my door. I really freak myself out. It’s scary. And usually I leave it locked until I really go to bed- I unlock it right before I climb into the blankets because by then the bad guy would have already tried to come in if he was out there. But I forgot last night so Michelle had to pound on my door and I really don’t like being woken up like that, especially when it ties into my dream like it did last night.

Staring out like that, I thought it was going to be a bad morning. Surprisingly it was not at all! Soon after I got in the shower, the song All I Want For Christmas Is You came on the radio and it was fun and upbeat and it made me smile and sing and dance. Then another upbeat one came on. It was a great shower. PLUS, Michelle was getting ready in the bathroom at the same time, and if you don’t hurry in the shower the mirror fogs up which is bad. Yesterday I showered first and had to open the door while Michelle was in the shower because it was SO HOT and SO HUMID in the bathroom. It freezes the person in the shower though. She was so sad at me. So today I thought she was going to open the door while I was in the shower because it was already hot and humid in there because of her shower, but she was the nicest sister and didn’t! And I thanked her for it.

I found a green sweater to wear because it’s Christmas, then Michelle Jared Rob and I went to church. We got there around 9:10. Not bad. Michelle and I went to Relief Society and a lady named Joan Keller taught the Christmas lesson. It was great. And I loved listening. I even tried not bouncing my foot or popping my fingers like I always do at church. ADD maybe. It was the best lesson and I wanted to go home and be the best person I could possibly be. Then in Sunday School, Brent Hale told some Crazy Insane Missionary Stories. And I was so happy to hear them. He has more faith than anyone I know personally. And I wanted all pre missionaries to hear him. He was great. Plus I got to see my friends that all go to different colleges. Fun fun fun.

Sacrament Meeting was rad too. Great Sunday. The choir sung a few songs, and for 2 of them the congregation stood and sang too. And we sand Oh Come Oh Come Emanuel which is an awesome song and the organ was really cool. Then I accidentally didn’t pay attention to the only speaker because I was writing letters to my ex mother and father in law the cheneys. But the music was enough for me. It was so great. Then after church a little boy wearing a Velcro coat walked past my sister wearing nylons and snagged them across both legs. It was funny. Then I gave Roland Trump a hug. He’s amazing.

Dinner was good. I love food at home. Better than college. I made fudge today too, and doorbell ditched it to some people. Yum. Then I brought presents to the Cheney’s and chatted with them for a bit, which was fun. I haven’t seen any of that family for a while and I love them all very much.

Then our family went to temple square. IT WAS PACKED. But I like that. I like lots of people to look at and to get lost in and to listen to. There were a lot of us. Dad mom deb scott calli ty sara becca spencer jack michelle me jared rob. It was pretty. I like blurring my eyes when I look at the Christmas lights. Then we went to Becca’s and Santa came. He was a perfect Santa. Then I fell asleep on the couch until I was awoken by the sound of fireplace tools falling on my nephew’s head. It was sad. But he’s okay.

Now I’m in my room. It’s almost 2 am. I need to go to bed. Sorry about the boring blog if you read it. But I had a good good day. And am excited for Christmas.
