Fortune Cookies

Our Internet is down at home. We leave for General Conference on Tuesday. In other words, I'm not sure how much blogging we'll get to in the next little while, but I ran across something interesting today at lunch.

I don't put much stock in fortune cookies. I just like to read them for a grin. Today my fortune read, "Linger over dinner discussions this week for needed advice." Keep in mind...we are headed to conference! I know there will be MANY prolonged dinner discussions this week. I can't wait to see our friends and family and enjoy those lengthy conversations.

As a young person, I remember being frustrated in having to wait while my Dad enjoyed these discussions. Now... I wait as my husband does the same thing. LOL! Who would have thought almost 20 years ago that I would be waiting on my husband to finish TALKING?!!!

So... take some time this week to linger over a dinner discussion - even if it is just your family. Those meals are always the most memorable, and you never know what you'll learn.

Have a great week!!

Since it is not like you guys post everday anyway I'm sure that "no new posts" for a while won't be considered out of the ordinary. In fact, if you hadn't let us know I'm sure we would have all assumed that nothing at all had changed. (smirk). Enjoy conference.
