It was the fifth Sunday today so Relief Society and Priesthood were combined. The missionaries taught and I loved the beautiful, simple truths they focused on. They talked about feeding His lambs and I realized I have some work to do. Actually, all three meetings were good like that. The Spirit was strong, and I have many specific ways I can improve. I love getting direction!
The weather today wasn't at all what I expected when I got dressed this morning. It was drizzly and colder than it's been all week, so I was wearing a maxi skirt and short sleeves. I left all sweaters, jackets, and scarves in my closet in my room (which I need to learn NOT to do because weather here changes all the time) so I was a bit chilly. What's more, the church itself was cold today so I couldn't really feel my toes by the end of the three hours there. Sarah and I were hurrying out the doors so we could catch the train and get home, and the Relief Society president (she's Scottish) asked me, "Aren't you cold without a coat?"
I responded, "Very cold! So I'm going to hurry home and warm up!"
That plan was better in theory than in practice, though, and we ended up waiting on the platform waiting for the train for fifteen minutes. Thankfully we weren't out in the rain because the platform was covered, but it was a bit nippy. I know I've said this before, but I think I've really learned my lesson this time. I'm not going anywhere without some sort of warming device. Maybe I'll remember my lesson this time around :P
When I got home I decided to take a quick nap because I was so cold. I didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night, so I was exhausted today, and that nap ended up being not all that quick. But it was good, and I'm still tired enough to go to bed tonight (I hope) so that's good news.
And that was today. Time is flying by and in just a few weeks I'll be back to real life. It's crazy to think about that. So I won't think about it for a while longer.
