9/11 opinion

Monday evening-
After work I went to go get a car wash but it was out of order =[
But then I cleaned out the inside of my car, so now it looks a little nicer. Then Spencer came home and we went to pick up Laura. Then off to Centerville for the 42nd Ward FHE Reunion. There are a lot of people that didn’t come that I wish had but it was a fairly good turn out. It’s crazy to think some of those people that I knew single are now married or even have kids already. But it was nice to see people; we had a good bishopric there. We had some yummy food and I talked with a few people. Mostly Devrey, and Laura. Then on our way back home we stopped to get some DQ for dessert! Then I watched Dirty Jobs on TV before going to bed.

Tuesday-
I tried the ER place again, it’s ridiculous. I understand they are probably busy but if you say you’re going to call me with test results in 2-3 days you better call me then! I mean everything is probably fine but I want to hear that it’s all fine. Especially if I’m paying for everything. Then I just mostly watched Grey’s Anatomy and slowly got ready for the day. Spencer starts his classes today; it will be weird not having him home at 5:30. It just means he is a step closer to being done with school.
So today is the 11th year since 9/11. Now I feel terrible for those that have lost loved ones and that those amazing buildings fell. But to be honest sometimes I feel like they wanted us to always remember this day and we are giving that to them. I also find it weird that people my age and younger remember that day. To be honest I just remember teachers putting on the TV, looking scared and seeing a building fall. I had no idea what that building even was until that day and that’s really all I remember. I also think maybe that day or the next day we sat in a circle and talked about those we knew that were in there. I think my mom worked in our school library so she was there but I don’t remember if they made us all go home or not. I don’t think they did but I could be wrong.
It’s a terrible thing that happened and I respect those who have lost loved ones but I also think it’s time to move on and do the best we can with what we have now. That’s my little opinion for today and hope no one takes offense to it. It’s just my opinion.
After work I plan on doing a few things around the house and then later going to hang out with J for a little bit and stay until Jessica gets home.

Have a fantastic Tuesday!

  1. I was helping in the library that day but they didn't send anyone home.

    I believe people have moved on but we remember to honor those who innocently died & those who helped in the rescue efforts. That day changed our country forever. It unites us as a country when we come together in memory of those who died and hopefully it helps us to strive to be better people....because you just never know what lies ahead.

    My guess is everything is fine or they for sure would have called but it's still sad you can't get a response.

    1. I didn't think we got sent home but i know some places did that.
      Yeah it's true. and i totally respect that. But not knowing anyone that did die I guess I see it differently. But i've never been there so I also don't know how it was like.
      True but I plan to say something to the operater person later today if i still don't get anyone.
