LDS Christmas party

 

Wednesday

I got up at 7:30 having not slept well because of persistent RLS. Why last night and not the night before? I just cannot spot the trigger.

I prepared for meditation morning with coffee and exercise and supplements. I read for half an hour with a red light. Then I did rounds of tapping and meditation and prayer.

I signed into Zoom for a tapping presentation. He presented tips on how to get more out of tapping sessions. I cleaned the kitchen while he talked. Other people asked questions.

Finally I exited the session. I mopped the floor and swept the den. I took a shower and got dressed. I asked Brighteon AI about RLS. One of the things it said was that going to the bathroom in the middle of the night could trigger an attack, so don't drink before bedtime. Interesting.

A man called to ask me to come to his final inspection to sign for the house. He said the inspection team remarked on the oil spots on his driveway. I set up a time to look it over. I vacuumed the hallway and bedroom. Then Jamie called to say Bobbie was looking for me. So I called her. She asked if the man had called me, and also if I was done with 111.

Jamie drove over in my riding mower. I gave her a ride home. Then we sat in my car and talked. After she got out, I drove by the man's house to see his driveway. It didn't look bad, but there was a vehicle in the way. Then I swung by Saronna's house to get my music folder. We chatted just a bit. Then I went by Jenni's house and picked up a papaya hanging on her door.

I also stopped by 111 and rinsed the tub which reminded me that I needed a drain plunger. I packed up some cleaning materials and went home. I scooted in the house just as Retreat sounded. I cut up the papaya and scooped out the seeds. I froze the papaya flesh and put the seeds in the dehydrator.

Chris came home from work and changed clothes. While he read on his computer, I posted about the Math Morning contest. I also made a list of our Christmas music and sent it to Keli, Caleb and Rod. Then I looked for a nice top to wear. I found a purple one and thought it didn't go with Chris' orange shirt. So I asked him to wear a red one. And he did.

Then we went to the LDS church off base. They were having their Christmas party. I saw Karen and asked her to play a piece on flute for Christmas Eve. She said yes. We went into the hall and chatted. Michelle came along and asked me to sit with her so I did. Jenni came over, too. Crystal announced a prayer and then people lined up to eat. But Michelle and I did not. Still, our table was full of conversation until the kids program started. It was simple and we sang songs. When it was over, Chris and I left and went home.

I looked up some music for Karen, but it cost money so I guess I'll copy it from the hymnal. I read messages. I worked on my blog. I made tea and we watched one episode of Criminal Minds. Then I read e-mail and messages. I listened to the sleep track and the reading of Psalms.
