Merry Christmas

I am going to try and write on my blog more than once a month. :) So we'll start with two and move from there.
I have had a very busy month. School finals, Relief Society (did I mention that they made me president a while back?), family, friends, and Jonathan (also a friend, but a little different). My phone got stolen two weeks ago, so I have had trouble communicating with people. Although a small blessing because I wasn't overloaded with communication. I think that sometimes we just need breaks. But only short ones.
The downside of not having a phone was having close encounters with other cars and ditches during the lovely winter weather. I told my students about the downsides (because it was one of them who stole my phone) and one of them said "That's just messed up!" I whole heartedly agreed and asked them if they knew who might have my phone. I didn't get a whole lot of help there, but it was encouraging to hear my students ask me about it every day after. They do care. :)
Christmas break has started and I have a ton of grading to do, but I keep putting it off of course. I've been spending time with Jonathan. We went to the temple with his parents, Scott, Cory and his wife Becky. This was all fine until we were asked to do some sealings. I'd never done sealings or have even seen them. It definitely makes you think to do them with someone you're dating...His parents smiled the whole time.
I know this has been kind of a random post. But I guess that's just my personality coming out. :) I'm going to see a lot of good friends this break, some I have already seen. I am really grateful for all the people in my life. Thank you.

I was just a tad confused about how not having your phone would put you in driving peril, if anything it would have kept you from being killed. Or maybe I just misunderstood what you were saying, I don't know, just a thought.

I was referring to if I got in car accident, I wouldn't have my cell phone to call anyone. :)

Just a friendly reminder that January is almost up and I would hate for you not to make you once a month goal for posts...not that I am a good example...but that wasn't my goal. :)
