Popcorn is weird.

Really though...think about it and look at popcorns. A little kernal that blossoms? Even the look of popcorn is weird and the texture...almost like packaging popcorns but not. I don't know exactly what the mystery is about popcorn, but it is definitely a mystery. That is all.

The Downer Blog

I'm pretty disappointed right now and maybe a little pessimistic. So, there is the disclaimer before you continue. I have been thinking about things I'm good at the last few weeks, things to keep me busy while David is away throughout the week. Unfotunately, I have found that the things I'm good at could hardly keep me entertained. David draws, sculpts, plays the guitar, among a whole bunch of other things. I dont have anything like that. It's frustrating, but i am officially annoyed with my lack of talent. Every Monday David and I invite couples over to have Family Home Evening in our home. We take turns teaching the lessons and have a little treat and game and song and prayer...the normal. Unfortunately what this has led to...is me realizing i'm not cut out to teach anyone anything. Ever since i was little i wanted to be a teacher, until it became time to go to college and i found other things that interested me more. Well, it's a good thing i found something else til teaching was ripped out from under me once i found i was incapable of teaching. My lessons last like 10 minutes max, i need a guide and i feel like i'm getting the sympathy answers. When i try to make discussion about the lesson, and they have no idea what i'm talking about, but they try anyway. I don't know if that makes sense. But here i am trying to prepare my FHE lesson right now, wondering what in the heck i'm doing. It's even more frustrating, is its a topic i myself am passionate about, yet having nothing to say about it. Grrr. Alright. That is all.

A Wonderful Day!

Well, after a little over a month now from meeting with our lawyer David and I FINALLY got all our paperwork in!!! What this means...is next week we sign the documents the the firm typed up, and they file everything with the government which starts the process of David getting his Green Card, granting him permanant residency in the states!!! We are so excited! We had a little trouble getting some documents together from Canada and getting a hold of people, but alas as of today the paperwork is in and things can move forward! PLUS this means in about 3 months we can FINALLY visit Canada sometime after that! Yay!!!
