Many, many times I've been compelled to describe my dad as a man who would be most comfortable mowing the lawn in a suit. And I've never meant that in a bad way. It has always meant that he was ready to serve. He's always been a role model of service to others, Christ-like in his way and he's always been ready to serve whomever, whenever needed. So if he's always in a suit, he's always ready to go.
I've also said I'd be wise to follow his example. And I'm trying. Does it count that I've been in my suit for twelve hours today? It's been a good, busy Sabbath day. Started with Bishopric meeting at 7:30AM and it went from there. I got home for good around 4:30PM. I then did my first youth interview (SB, you survived, my friend!) and once that was over, I was finally able to call it a day. I have to admit I'm glad to be out of the suit for the night.
Talked to our Lady Of BYU today and she had a great first week of Fall Semester. She's going to a Sunday Night Devotional tonight where Elder Jeffrey R. Holland is speaking - man, I miss those days of being able to have such access to Church leaders.
Capped the evening with homemade soft tacos - Shari got all kinds of creative with the shredded roast (the jalapeno nailed it!) that she used and it was so, so good. And now "The Simpsons" are on. Still the Best.TV.Show.Ever!
