Jury Duty Report
So my jury duty went quite well afterall. So I got there monday morning and I was the first group called. I got picked on a jury and it was pretty intersting. I found out later all the other ladies on the jury had sent in letters from employers ect. trying to get excused. That is why they chose us for a 1 day trial. I was very happy to only have to spend one day there and not miss any work-and also happy I was able to get to be a part of the jury for a trial since I was there..rather than sit and wait most of the day. It was a domestic violence case-and I was glad to see justice be served. We annanomously decided on a guilty verdict. I was there most of the day. So I guess I should have had a better attitude about it. It turned out much better than I thought. I accually felt good after it all. It felt good to feel like I was able to serve the community to help make it a safer place for us all!

See! God provided a opportunity for you to serve, without taking away from your responsibility!! Glad that it was only one day though, one time I sat through the jury picking process for THREE DAYS, and got chosen but then the case was thrown out!
