I got to see Mona! I only saw her for a few hours yesterday afternoon but it was so great to see her. We had a party for her since she was only going to be in Provo for an afternoon. It was so nice to remember how much I love her and what a good friend she is. I've only talked to her a few times since she moved to New Jersey 8 months ago but yesterday talking to her it seems like we hadn't been apart at all.
I'm surviving ok Lou's business trip. My favorite time is the night. I have my nightly date with the Gilmore Girls. That is what gets me through the day sometimes, I just can't wait for 7 when the kids will be asleep for the night then I can just watch and watch. I've laughed out loud a lot while watching (which I never do), it must be releasing more stress than I knew I had
I haven't heard back from the Jazz but they did say about 10 days and it's only been 6. I check my email constantly. I keep on praying about it. I'm just so anxious to find out.
Last night I had one of the best prayers I've had in a long time. I actually prayed out loud. I pray out loud all the time the kids or family prayers or prayers with Lou but hardly ever just when I'm saying my personal prayers. It was very refreshing and therapeutic. I just cried and cried from the love I felt from the Lord and the comfort the spirit can be.

That picture is way cute, it looks like your hair cut is perfect on you! I'd love to see more pics of it.
When does lou get home? I'm glad you are doing okay. i laught out loud all the time when i'm watching stuff by myself and if zac's in the other room he just laughs at me... whoops!
glad you had such a spiritual experience, too. i need to focus on saying my prayers out loud every once in a while too. that is a great idea. still crossing my fingers for you on the jazz thing! love you!
I'm so glad Lou's trip is going okay for you! Gilmore Girls is good at making me laugh out loud--sometimes that's just what you need to help you relax and feel better.
I too, have more spiritual prayers and more profound experiences when I pray out loud. It's amazing how when you do that you can focus more and I usually feel a greater outpour of the Spirit and of God's love for me. I'm so glad you could experience that!
I hope you hear from the Jazz soon!
It is always fun to reconnect with good friends. I love when the comfort comes right back. I am impressed you are finding all the good things while Lou is gone. Laughing out loud is a great stress reliever. The Lord does love us and it is nice to be reminded of that sometimes.
When I saw the title of your post I wondered if it was Mona that used to live by you... and indeed it was. How fun to be able to reconnect. Sounds like you are getting what you need while Lou is away!
How cool to get to see Mona. I met her once but have heard Jessie talk so fondly of her. Very cool!
