The One Where I Should Have Worn Sunscreen

Stardate: Aug 24-30, 2020

Well it was a crazy busy week as usual and I'm way behind in my journal so I don't even know anymore. 

We woke up early and went to Cauldron Linn on Monday. Speed painted a birthday present for Edie. Visited people and stuff idk the usual. I joined some watercolor groups on Facebook. Drove to Twin on Wednesday and hung with the homie squad for a short and sweet amount of time. Sigh my appointments have been a little disappointing, frustratingly. Feel like it's not doing much to help yet, but I'll get there, I hope. This week a lot of the time I felt like I was kinda drifting, idk how to explain it exactly but it feels weird. 

Hung with Aleecia and had a cool experience, we'd walked past this man a few times then he came back to us to ask about temple sealings, it was so cool and Aleecia got to bare her epic testimony. She has the strongest faith I've ever seen, she is amazing. 

Helped out at the Paul Palooza, I chopped watermelon, twas super fun but I got hecka sunburnt. Then on Sunday we got to visit my great Aunt Kay! It was super cool, we have so much in common, it's interesting to think about how things like artistic talents can be inherited. Loved it!

So last thing. Coming home up the stairs to our apartment and I see a preying mantis. Now my favorite 11 year Aiden is very keen on finding mantises. Ah but that would be weird, bet his grandma Brenda would freak out or something. But "never suppress a generous thought" says my brain so...I caught it, took awhile to be able to get it to him but he said I made his life so that's pretty cool. And now Mr. Mantis has a Mrs. Mantis, though they can't meet or they'll probably rip each other's head off. So never suppress a generous thought, folks! I don't remember who said that but it goes through my head a lot and I never regret it
