May 6th- The Miracle of a Tricycle

May 6, 2014

Today was a long day. But then again, Tuesday's usually are. I went to class, worked and then went to my counselor. Sometimes when I go there I feel like I am not making any progress. Today that was especially true. I lost my keys and I still can't find them! I'm beginning to worry very much. I hope I find them soon. But because I haven't found them I had to go straight from class to work then to the counselor's by foot. It was incredibly stressful. I got to work late and then we were off to a cinco de mayo party. There was food, there was games and there was dancing. The miracle of my day was a little tricycle that I found. While we were all gathered together dancing, I tried to get my clients to laugh and have fun. Turns out, if you get on a tricycle that is made for a 3 year old, people laugh! Who would have thought! Well, I was happy about it. All I needed today was someone to laugh at my jokes. Ta da! What a miracle!

May 5th-The Miracle of Flatulence

May 5, 2014

Let me premise this by saying that I am a bit infantile when it comes to humor. Today while I was at work, I got to take some of my clients to their institute class. This is a religion class that is offered for anyone and everyone who wants to take it. It is awesome! Well, my clients were really rowdy today. They were laughing at everything and being silly. It was quite amusing.

When we began the class, the teacher asked if one of my clients would pray. They obliged and as they went to stand up, in the deafening silence, the wind broke with an outrageously loud bit of flatulence. This wasn't just any fart my friends, no. It was the funniest thing I have ever heard exit the human rump in my life!

The whole class erupted in a fit of laughter. The teacher of the class was in tears he was laughing so hard. I could barely breathe! It was so funny. Eventually the real prayer happened and the class was great but it was a miracle to be able to laugh it out. What a miracle!

 

May 4th- The Miracle of a Testimony

May 4, 2014

Well today was a day. It was National Star Wars day and I didn't watch a single episode. Sigh. I did however, dress up kinda like R2-D2 though so... I think it balances itself out right? Today was a rough day. I won't lie to you. However, the silver lining was that I kept busy all day. I had meeting after meeting and then I got to hear an Apostle speak to the "young adult" group of our church. It was so nice.

My miracle today happened at church. Go figure. On the first of every month everyone in the congregation is invited to come up and share their testimonies to the rest of us. Someone came up and talked about how they had been changed so much by Christ. It really effected me so much. What a miracle!

May 3rd- The Miracle of a Funny Story

May 3, 2014

Saturday. Usually today is a nice day to get everything done. With that in mind I made my way over to the grocery store after completing the rest of my homework for the day. As I got into my car I noticed something brown poke it's way from behind my passenger side mirror. I had no idea what it was so I took off down the road. Today the weather was great, so I had the windows rolled down and the music blasting. While I was in said situation (driving down the highway mind you) that brown thing that I just imagined was a leaf flew into my window and landed on my passenger side seat. I made eye contact with it. It wasn't a leaf. In case you didn't know, leafs don't have eyes! I know, it was a shocker to me as well.

Turns out it was a lizard. What the heck was a lizard doing in my car!?! Before I even had a chance to think it through... it made it's way into my purse. What a cunundrum I had gotten myself into! I had no idea what I was going to do.

This is where "ditzy Katie" comes in. My manager called and I started to talk to him about a thing or two. These things were not imperitive but they did enough to distract me from the emminent problem that awaited me in my purse. I FORGOT ABOUT THE LIZARD!!! For interest of the story, I will call this lizard "Brownie" for the fact that he looked cute, but to me he was deadly.

I got to the store and put my purse around my arm. Still talking to my manager mind you. Then it happened. Right there in the produce section, I felt something tickle my arm, then side and then... dare I say it, my boobs. Brownie decided to make his way through my shirt up to 2nd base! I screamed so loud! I jumped up and down. Brownie made it safely into the avocadoes. Just in time for everyone in the store to think I was nuts and I'm sure my manager did too.

As I gathered my sanity(ish) and finished my shopping, I couldn't stop laughing as I explained what had happened to me to my manager. He laughed so hard. It was worth it! What a miracle!

May 2nd- The Miracle of Dancing

May 2, 2014

There was only one redeemable thing about today. Today I got to go salsa dancing. Which as we all know is one of my favorite dances. After I got out of work I booked it like a librarian all the way home and got "prettified" and then went dancing. It was nice to get out a lot of that tension. What a miracle!

May 1st- The Miracle of Bowling

May 1, 2014

Well, today has been interesting. I got to go bowling with some of my clients and got schooled in the art of throwing a strike by a man in a wheelchair. That pretty much made my day. He was so sweet and told me to the right or to the left. He would even blow on my ball so that it would be lucky. That was my miracle for today. What a miracle!
