MAJOR PROBLEMS!!!!

I AM HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS!!!!! I JUST REALIZED THAT BOOK SEVEN COMES OUT THE DAY BEFORE WE LEAVE TO GO BACKPACKING. THERE IS NO WAY I WILL FINISH IT BEFORE LEAVING TO GO BACKPACKING. That means that I will have to get home Thursday night, read all night, help clean house, pack, and do the yard and stuff all day Friday, read all night Friday night so that I'll be done before family reunion. But now Kristy is telling me that if I'm up that late those nights that I won't be fit to drive down to the reunion because I'll be too tired. Please, please, please don't talk about it until I have been able to read the book!! PLEASE!!!!

jonelle said...: how much does the book weigh? just trade it for that air mattress you struggled in last year!
then you guys could read it aloud around the campfire... or you could fasten it to the back of cory's pack so you could read while you hike....
so many solutions!; June 5, 2007 at 9:14 PM
jonelle said...: ok. skip helping clean house. easy.
let kristy pack. no problem.
skip the yard and stuff -- it'll still be there when you get back.
stay up as late as you need, and just let kristy do the driving.
see, it all works out!; June 5, 2007 at 9:18 PM

"Real charity is not something you give away; it is something that you acquire and make a part of yourself. Charity comes when we are kind to each other; when we don't judge someone else; when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or REMAIN QUIET. Charity is accepting someone's differences, weaknesses and shortcomings, having patience with someone who has let us down or resisting the impulse to become offended when someone doesn't handle something the way we might have hoped. Charity is expecting the best of each other"
(Elder Marvin J. Ashton, Conference April 1992).

"Charity is not an emotion or action. It is not something we feel or do. Charity is who the Savior is. It is his most defining characteristic. When we plead for charity, we aren't asking for lovely feelings toward someone who bugs us or has wounded us. We are actually pleading for our very natures to be changed; for our character and disposition to become more like the Savior's so that we literally feel as He would feel and thus do what He would do."
