A Busy Day

Today I made a couple of trips to the post office to try to mail some things before the Christmas rush. It was pretty busy there, but nothing like it will be in December. I tried mailing a package to Riitta and Matti in Finland, but the postal clerk was afraid it would get crushed (it was kind of a flimsy box), so she went and found me a box in the back which I brought home to repack and I'll go back tomorrow to mail it. (That was nice of her. I was wondering if it was too flimsy and she assured me that it was.)

Next it was off to Curves and then a walk at the track. I got home just in time to get dinner ready so we could eat and then head over to the Provo Temple. The Mt. Timpanogo Temple is closed for cleaning, so Richard was home and was able to go with us to Provo. We saw a lot of Sunset Heights Stake people there. Shirley Robins was there, and I had seen her earlier in the day at the post office. Leslie Hillstrom was also there, and I had seen her earlier in the day at the track. That's funny that we all ended up in the same temple session. We also saw a girl who looked familiar to Steven. I sat by her during the session and she said we looked familiar to her, too. So as we visited later, we found out that she was in the BYU 100th ward in Provo when Steven was in the bishopric about 10 years ago. Her name is Nicole Jensen, and she has recently returned to the Provo area after living in Boston and Washington state.

I sent Tiff an e-mail today and told her that what she made her Christmas tree out of was "duct" tape and not "duck" tape. Then when I talked to her on the phone later, she said it really was "duck" tape. My bad. That's a cute idea for a tree.
