A Musical and What Happens When The 4th Lands on a Sunday in Utah

This is a quickie as it's late (10:56 pm), and the microwave meal I cooked up just beeped. 

Just got home from seeing Guys and Dolls at the Hale Center Theater in Sandy Utah.  It was opening night, and really, really good.  That theater puts on a good show.  It's been so long since I've seen the movie, a couple decades, that I'd forgotten the plot.  Only the main songs stood out from memory.  Now I need to watch the 1950's movie.

Fourth of July was interesting this year.  It fell on a Sunday, which means a lot of people celebrated it Saturday and Today.  Saturday was the huge firework show and this morning was the parade.  There were hardly any fireworks last night.  Some family came over, and we lit fireworks, but on our street we were the only ones.  It was the Sabbath, but it was just strange.  I really have no clue how many people were out tonight lighting fireworks as the show got out after 10:00.  

Yesterday was fast and testimony in Church, and there were so many memes going on about it on Facebook.  The first Sunday of the month is fast and testimony meeting, where those who can fast do, and then offer a fast offering that goes towards the... I want to say Welfare part of the church, but it helps those in need with food, provide food for the bishops store house, and also humanitarian emergencies and disasters.  It's a brilliant system that's helps many people.  But also on this Sunday people bare their testimony during sacrament meeting.  There's no talks.  Anyone can get up and say something. There were a lot of jokes, like were people going to make it patriotic or not?  And so forth.  But I missed Church yesterday!  Had a rough night and took a nap, ended up sleeping three hours and missed church.  So yeah, missed it.

This weekend was nice.  We've had light rain storms come through, but they didn't last long, and were completely gone by celebration time.

Have a good day, 
Sarah

Heh, I think my meal is cold. (11:16 pm), and I hear fireworks, so some people are being festive. :0)
