YAY!! I"M BACK TO THE TEMPLE!~

Don't know if I was anxious about attending the temple this morning, BUT I didn't sleep very well last night. However, I got up at 6AM and turned on the oven so I could bake some of the Bran Muffin's for breakfast before we left at 7:45.

I made a dozen and I think I'll have to give some away! lol  The recipe makes a ton.  NOT that we have to cook or eat them all at once but after breakfast, we still had eight so I sent Tony over to Joyce's with the remainder. She has Cindy and Ty coming tonight so they might like them in the morning for breakfast!

It was a cloudy day and about 23* when we left. I seriously thought we might see snow when we got out BUT, we didn't!  Such a beautiful sight!!  I couldn't believe all the construction of homes and apartments I saw on the way to the temple. I can't believe all the changes that have happened since December of last year!!  Probably the end of November even!  All I know is it has been 
TOO LONG!

It was sunny when we finished! It was wonderful to see and hear the changes! I absolutely loved it! I am anxious to work on Saturday. I was really tired after ONE session but hope my strength continues to get better as I serve. I am going to go to the gym with Tony tomorrow and just walk. I hope I can do it with out too much trouble. I still get very winded but LOOK AT ME!!  The medication has done wonders for my heath issue BUT it sure hasn't helped my appearance!!  YUCK!!

BUT, then I have to remember this!!  I should count my blessing and not worry about the other things. I will eventually get back to what I was. I just need to get healthy first!!

AND remember what is really important!!  
It was such a blessing to be here this morning and to feel of the Spirit of the temple. There is seriously NOTHING BETTER!~
We came home and Tony changed and went to the gym. He did weight and the whole thing today so I stayed home and read my book. He said I could go and walk and then sit and read BUT, I know I would be explaining what's happened to me to all sorts of people and I just didn't want to go through that today!
When he got home, I made us each a bowl of 
UDON NOODLES
for lunch. I LOVE THESE little dinners!
Easy and delicious!!

Of course, I had to bake us some cookies for dessert!!  LOL  
BAD GIRL!!  And why do I complain about my size....I do it to myself!!  GRRRRR
Tony has now gone to his Mom's to help her get her taxes organized so I am fixing a shirt of his and then I'm going down to read and take it easy the remainder of the day! 
AND A GOOD DAY IT WAS!~

Yay! I'm so glad you were able to get back to the temple finally! I like that quote to count your blessings instead of everything else. So true!

Those cookies look delicious! I am my own worse enemy too, buying or making treats a lot. Or just eating too much! I find myself eating even when I'm not hungry, grrr. I need to stop that!
