Attitude of Gratitude

-
A while ago I decided to become more self aware. I kept track of all the things that bothered me about myself. Doing this made me realize that I complain.... A LOT. I don't even have a lot to complain about. I've been thinking about this ungrateful and whiny attitude that I've developed, and I also thought about how much it bothers me when other people do the same. I don't want to live my life with this bad attitude anymore. I learned in Seminary a couple weeks ago that a person's attitude affects everything. I LOVE being happy! So from now on I'm going to focus on my attitude, and the words that come from my mouth. Things I'm grateful for today:

5) Getting decent grades in school. And having awesome Professors.
4) I can listen to my favorite music pretty much all day everyday.
3) My Seminary teachers. They really help me feel the Spirit and learn about the gospel every morning. And that helps me think clearly throughout my day.
2) I have an intact family, who loves each other.
1) I'm ALIVE

    Right now I'm feeling lousy with bronchitis and a toothache, but HEY! I'm alive, and I have teeth! :D

    Reading this makes me feel happy! I hope my Mia Maid girls are grateful for their blessings, too!

It's my birthday!!!!! Yes, I'm turning 13 today. *sob* So far I have been treated to a dewberry pancake breakfast courtesy of Monkey, my other siblings decorated my chair, and ladder with streamers. They look really awesome! Plus Mel even let me have pink Boobah to carry around for the rest of the day. Then they made really cute flowers out of tissue paper, one of the flowers is behind my ear at the moment. I love my brothers, and sisters! *Ha! I'm not going to be thirteen until 12:45!*

A book to feed your hunger!

-
I have just finished reading Scrambled Eggs at Midnight at midnight on Friday. I decided to read it after Cameo recommended it a couple months ago. Yes, I know it took a while but it was completely worth the wait. I wasn't enthusiastic about reading it at first, but as soon as I read the first line where she says,“My mother is a wench. It says so on her w-2″ I knew I was going to love it. Sure enough I "ate" it up, and it was really good. Thank you for recommending this book to me Cameo, and to all of you that haven't read this book you should! *Especially those of you who are hungry for a good book.*

And her name was Ms. Bossy Pants

There's this girl in my brothers church class. Her name is Ms. Bossy Pants . Just from her name you can find that she likes to boss people around, even if they're three times bigger than her! In sharing time she was in the row in front of where I was sitting. I was talking to the girl next to me trying to block out Ms. Bossy Pants bossiness. Then she turned around and started doing her signature move(rubbing her index fingers together and saying,"For shame."Oh! And shaking her head at the same time!) Isn't she such a little multi- tasker ? She started with the,"For shame Sunbum . For shame, your not suppose to be talking right now." (In my defence we still hadn't started class yet.) But that was enough for me, I didn't care if her mom was behind me(telling her mom is her only defence). Who is she to tell me what to do? Then the evillest plan popped into my head. I smiled wickedly at her. Then I turned to the girl next to me and said,"Oh loo
