I can't think of a title

I have really been enjoying the nice weather. Especially when I am working outside. I'm even starting to think of ideas for landscaping but still need lots more ideas. I think I want a patio area in the front with a fire pit. I am looking for suggestions.

I worked for 4 1/2 hrs this afternoon and completed 11 questionnaires. According to Rachel, that is grounds to be fired for doing too many and being sloppy. We have more work than time allotted to complete it so I did good. I need to give a little explanation of my 4 1/2 hrs of work. Of that time I had close to 45 minutes of commuting to my area. And then I had to take a break and go to the rest room. Now that should only take a few minutes except I was in Spring Creek and there is a very limited supply of public restrooms. I traveled 20 minutes round trip and spent 3 minutes taking care of my business. So my actually work time in my area was about 3 1/2 hrs.

This is the 1st hourly wages job I have had. My other jobs of farming, teaching, mothering and wifing were all salary. It is hard for me to limit my hours. I want to just work and get the job done but they make me take time off. No I'm not a workaholic just programmed by my dad.

Another quick note that Rachel will appreciate more than anyone else. I have 3 census binders I am working on. The 1st on is one that Ashely and I started a week ago. #2 was given to me last week and the 3rd one is the one that the other Marilyn and I have been working on this week. I hope to pretty much finish them all up tomorrow. Then we will be venturing farther out looking for sage brush to count.

I tracted into the missionaries today. A girl answered the door and we were visiting for a minute. There were bikes outside so I asked her if she rides bikes. She told me that those are the missionaries' bikes. Spring Creek is a rural area and these guys are on bikes!! Wow. The missionaries were finishing a discussion or lesson of sometime. The dad talked with me out on the deck. The girl I was talking with is a member. I don't think dad is very interested and was glad to talk with me. They were putting dinner out as I was leaving. I was invited to stay for dinner. When I declined, they asked if I wanted some chips or something and they told me to come back. Guess I have a new friend too.

One more quick story. One guy answered his door and told me he wasn't interested in completing the questionnaire. It just happened that I had to do a questionnaire for his neighbor so the neighbor gave me the information I needed for the guy who refused. That's called a proxy and yes it is legal. That's all for today.
