You know today I just woke up and I said you know instead of waitin' on a good day waitin' around through up's and down's waitin on something to happen I just say; We're gonna have a good day...


Now, I don't even know that song. But I like it :)


Today was a great day! I just really realized (again) that not only does God love me and want me to be happy, I also remembered something one of my companions used to say all  the time on the mission "Heavenly Father is so merciful to me"  I totally feel that way. Do you want to know why? (As Rachel would say-- You're going to tell me anyway, so go ahead). 
I'll give it to you in bullets.

• Today work was great, I was early and it was just super productive, and I just really love my boss. Beryl is so great, and such a great example to me. 
• While I was at work I got a text about my favorite little 4 year old (almost 5 eek!) having her teddy bear marry her doll and having bunny babies. Cute right? 
• I found a parking spot in a prime spot right by Rachel's house and did what I needed to do for my class. I haven't found a spot in that lot in weeks! 
• My class let out early so I could go study for my test.
• I ran into one of my friends and he said "Emily, you are like sunshine to me!" I hope he meant in a friendly way, but it still made me feel happy!
• Then I went to take my test and I got a 96% on it! In the testing center that means that you get an encouraging message like "Great Job" or like today, I got "Congratulations!" It made me SUPER DUPER happy!
• Ok, so in my test I was filling out the answers, and I prayed before I started my test, and I was almost done, but as I went to fill in the bubble for number 23 it was already filled in! I was so frustrated, also, as I looked back past my answers to see where I skipped a line, ALL of them were filled in, I obviously filled in one answer twice! So, I huffed and puffed, but went to  find which one I missed and while looking through the answers and realized that I had gotten one wrong! But because I messed up somehow, I saw where I messed up and got to fix it! Heavenly Father answers prayers... even ones about silly family finance tests. I'll keep praying (because I have 2 more tests before Tuesday!)
• THEN my Domestic Goddess BFF came so we could go to the Sister's reunion (!) and she brought me a half birthday present that I am SO excited to read it! (and it's autographed by the author!) And we went to the sister's reunion. And it was so great. I had zero anxiety about seeing the president (which is a first) and it was relaxed and casual and... just so nice! And Brenda called Eric a Schmuck! Which pretty much made my life.  
• Then I talked to my mom! (Which was great, as always). 

Are you jealous of my great day? I am :)
