Honey Baked Ham



Ever since Dan started working 2 jobs and going to school I have wanted to do something to help out in the monetary area of our life.

Last month I applied for a job at Honey Baked Ham. It was a temporary job...just for the holidays. Well I got the job! I am working at a kiosk selling their hams.

Cheesy you might say. But, those who know me know that I LOVE customer service and selling. It is the perfect job for me! Today was my first day and I am LOVING it.

Temple



One Sunday in September the lesson in Sunday School AND Relief Society was on the importance of temple attendance. After that I decided to set a goal to go to the temple once a week. It worked out perfectly since I do a babysitting switch with a girl in my ward once a week.

The first week I went I met a lady who attends the temple 4 times a week!! Wow. She said that since her kids are all in school she has a lot more time to attend the temple which makes both her and the Lord happier.

What a difference I have felt in my life! Going to the temple has given me focus and peace in my life. And, going to the temple doesn't have to be 2 hours every time! There are things that need to be done that take only half hour or an hour.

I am grateful that the Lord is giving me this time to take care of myself as well as furthering his work.
