Since it is after 1.a.m. I will make this brief.
We spent awhile at the center this morning cleaning...mopping etc. At the old center a man came in once a week and deep cleaned, which was wonderful. At our new place, we will be doing it. It is small enough that it shouldn't be difficult at all. It just takes time that I don't want to give very late on Thursday.
In the afternoon we drove about 20 minutes north of here to the site of our YSA Golden Days. It is being held in a school. YSAs began arriving about the same time we did, and trickled in until midnight, each pulling a suitcase and a sleeping bag and pillow. There were 18 countries represented there.
Golden Days will go through tomorrow and Sunday with everyone departing for their homes around 5 pm.
Tonight was a dance and socializing. I spent time with several young people and got to know several I haven't had a chance to visit with much before. I also got to know some from other parts of the world.
More details and pictures to follow....probably on Sunday evening. Tomorrow is the temple trip, classes and a gala dinner/dance. Sunday the special YSA Sacrament Meeting, Sunday School and Priesthood/Relief Society. It's going to be great.
Wow! That resolution to be in bed by midnight was short lived. Oh well. You are up to good things. So glad you had an enjoyable time with the YSA's. It sounds like a wonderful get-together - topped by spiritual up-lift on Sunday. Keep smiling and enjoy! L&P
ReplyDeleteAlas! Short-lived for sure. Hopefully, this will be a short detour from my newly established good habits. But it is great. L&P
DeleteI'm pretty sure you said "if at all possible" when you decided to be in bed by midnight, meaning when your assignments don't preclude it. So keep up the awesome work on your assignments and your resolutions both!
ReplyDelete18 countries -- that's amazing! Where are they all from? Do they sleep on the floor? Do they know the ones from other countries from other events?
Sogni d'oro -- dreams of gold. I love you.
I hope the "if at all possible" turns out to also mean "usually." Italy, Wales, England, Scotland, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, Germany, France, USA, Denmark, and I am at a loss about where the others were from. I think Canada was one. Sogni d'oro to you too my dear. Love you.
