What's on my mind?

- First competition is over. One more until Nationals. We've started a challenge for the next 5 weeks and it's been pushing me to practice much more than I had been. So sorry for the couple living under us...

- Tax season is upon us and I've realized for my position, it is not my busy season. Weird when everyone else is working all hours of the day AND night and I get to go home at 5 with no problem. But that just means the rest of the year I don't really get a break.
Good thing I love my job!

- Hunger Games was a great 'book to movie' adaption. Just wish the camera didn't shake EVERY second.

- We got to watch niece Ellie last night. Because she lives in Arizona I have only seen her once since she's been born. It was only a few hours but it was fun to play parent for a short while.

- Seeing Ellie made me even more SUPER excited for Disneyland in only 6 weeks!

- Lunch with Marissa yesterday was such a delight. I miss seeing friends.

- My birthday is next week.

- I'm in a training at work and it is amazing. I love going to the sessions and keeping my journal to improve my mental skills. I am progressing in ways I've just talked about for a long time and it feels hopeful.

- I was only able to watch the Sunday sessions of Conference. I was sad at first but now I am getting to experience the talks one at a time and it has been slightly thrilling. Each one has it's own message for me and I am discovering them. Maybe I'll do another post on this later.

- I find myself dreaming about the future and wishing it could be here now. But I am trying to live in the present and be grateful for my blessings now. Because I am so very blessed.
