Yesterday my dad, Camille and I went fishing at Bountiful Pond. This is the first time in my life that I have actually fished with my dad. Usually if I went with him I got to be the fish gutter but never actually fish.
It was slow going at first but once dusk started setting in and the other fishers left the fish started biting left and right. We were catching fish almost every cast and usually within a minute or two of casting out we would have a bite. I've never caught so many fish in my life. It was so much fun. Luckily, the fish were small and we didn't have to keep any of them. I still don't like the taste of rainbow trout.
I am definitely going to be fishing at Bountiful Pond again. If anyone wants to go let me know.

Yesterday I took my grandma to Daughters of the Utah Pioneers (DUP). While we were there comments were made about Pony Express Riders and I knew that we had one in our family history (I will post about that on a later date). As I was going through the histories of some of my ancestors I came across a typed page from my great grandpa entitled "Points That Have Helped Me Gain What Little Success I Have In This Life". I found the list to be thought provoking and decided that I would include it for others to read.
1.Live right and ask God to help me in all work each day and always thank him for his blessing.
2.Working hard and tackling the hardest job each day.
3. Reading and keeping posted in your work for the more you know the easier it is to do your work.
4. Think out new things to do and take the initiative. Don't get in a rut with self pity for yourself.
5. Always be accurate and don't get in too big a hurry.
6. Have courage or the nerve in other words. This will help carry you through the hours of trial.
7. Always be friendly and remember only friendly people are successful leaders in doing a job.
8. Cultivate personality because personality is to a man what sunshine is to the earth.
9. Always trying to be cheerful and smile when I have failed and try out another scheme.
10. Always try to do my best in all work.
11. The last but not least, having a genuine true blue woman to help and cheer me through the darkest hours.

Last night I got wind that my ex is dating again. I wish I could say that it doesn't bother me but it does. I was having a really rough night and when I woke up this morning the first thing that popped into my head was a line from the Bruno Mars song, "girl you're amazing just the way you are".
I am amazing. I have so many good qualities and I just need to find someone who sees me for who I am and loves me in spite of all my flaws.
"Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same....
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are."
