Attitude Adjustment

I'm trying to have a better attitude about things.  For instance, my ward.  Colt and I haven't been too thrilled with our ward here, but maybe we can fix that by our attitudes.  There have been times when I have wanted to say not-so -nice things to people in my ward after they asked if I was new (when we've been here for a year), asked if I was pregnant (no, I'm not), or told me that I wasn't important to our relief society program so they could practice without me.  Instead, I've been trying to bite my tongue and just smile at them.

This same better attitude applies to our current living situation.  I had high hopes for moving away to Colorado or Washington and getting out of Southern Utah.  However, Colt and I both feel strongly that for now we are supposed to stay here, so I'm going to make the best of it.  Instead of being sad about things I'm missing out on, I'm going to try to remind myself of all of the wonderful things about Southern Utah.  This may not be my favorite place to live, but I'm going to make myself like it.

First step: curtains for the living room and kitchen that I have been putting off since I thought we were moving.
