Virtue!

So the virtue I'm going to try this week is patience. I have Patience but not a lot and especially when I'm cooped up in the house with my brothers and sisters.( They are MAJOR pains) This could be a very interesting week to say the least! :)

Monday- I didn't say anything about me trying to be more patient to my family because I knew they would make this a very long week. Today I think I did ok. I listen to my mom and didn't get frustrated with the busy schedule, and when my little sisters didn't help clean our room I didn't say anything and left them alone.

Tuesday- Today my little sisters still didn't clean up all of their stuff off the floor and I just let it be. It drove me crazy on the inside cause when my sides clean I like their side to be clean as well. My little brother Justin on the other hand was on the computer all day and i was trying to blog this and well i kind of yelled at him because he told me I could wait! (how dare he!) so today i had half the patience.

Wednesday- I had no patience today what-so-ever I had a headache and they were being loud so i snapped. but i did go to speedway 95 and saw cars go round and round it was actually pretty fun i was surprised i liked it! Early today my cousin Michele came over and we painted some of the back deck it was hot!!!

Thursday- we did some more stiff washed the deck so it could be painted, i scrubbed our pool it has a rip so we have to clean it so it can be fixed. My little sisters got a Wii so I've been playing it's so fun! especially wii fit!

Friday- I cleaned for my little sister Kathryn's party she's 8! I didn't paint cause it was going to rain and it did! i drove to unity with my dad to get pizza for the party, we had ice cream cake! yummy there were tons of little kids and my 6 year old cousin yelled at me! that was a test of my patience i don't like it when i get yelled at by kids younger than me! i didn't do so well with that it made me mad!

Saturday- I drove all day in Bangor and then i went to Gilford for a surprise birthday party! My mother was telling all the strangers about my attitude so perfect strangers probably felt like they new me! that was embarrassing and annoying! what a challenge this has been!

This week was such a challenge i have awful Patience i knew this before but i really know now i think I did a little better then I expected I think I may have left things out but i did the best that i could if this was a long lasting thing i would truly learn to have patience we can definitely say that. :)
