Becoming Sabrina

1. I watched becoming Jane when I got home and that movie just rips my heart out every time. Connor got to listen to me carry on about it. 

2. My personal finance class today was excellent! I laughed a lot! I really like our little group. 

3. I got 13000 steps and I didn’t even go to the gym! 

Monday smonday

1. Connor and I had a frank discussion about grad school and I’m feeling pretty good about life. 

2. I ended up working much longer than anticipated, but got a ton done. 

3. I got many many steps and made a large effort to get them early in the day, I really want to win this challenge. 

Can’t stop staring at the wreath

1. It was so nice to go back to regular church today after being away from it for over a month. Woo! 

2. My visiting teachers came this morning. That has also been awhile. 

3. I was struck with this overwhelming sense of gratitude today when I realized all we have been blessed with and how we’re fitting in well with our sweet ward. 

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night, S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night

1. 

I made this. My mom gave me the inspiration last year and we bought all the ornaments right after Christmas so they were cheaper, then we didn’t want to make it till we moved and other things have been taking priority. So I finally did it and I’m so pleased with how it turned out :) 

2. I raked the leaves in the yard today which is nice that falls under my job and yard care reaponsibilities so we get discounted rent. I love discounted rent 

3. I spoke with my mom, then my dad, then Connor, then my mom again all for a nice chunk of time. It was a nice day to chat. I’m excited to go up there in two weeks! 

Rainy days and Friday’s

1. 

I do hard things at work.. :) we decorated for boss day on Monday. 


Picture of Mycah getting her nutrageous bars yesterday at the party. 

On my walk home. I love this season. I hope I’m sufficiently soaking it all in. 

This stud went to get extra credit for a class and had to take a selfie. So he sent it to me and I 😍😍😍 till he got home. 

Just pictures today, since that seems to be a pretty good scale for how I’m doing depression wise. More photos = less depression in my world. Not a conscious choice, just something I’ve picked up on over the years. 

Surprise! Mycah’s house

1. We pulled off surprising Mycah with all her gifts! It was a lot of work, but so unbelievably fun! I’m so glad it turned out well. 

2. I successfully made dairy free zoupa toscana and got a lot of compliments. It was really good :) 

3. I had dinner with Michele. I love that woman. I’m glad we get to be friends and family and spend all this time together. She makes me feel spoiled and so so loved. 

4. I went to the gym after dinner and did 4 miles on the elliptical! I love ellipticals! And I really love the gym. 

Thank heaven for days like these

1. Work has got me pretty far down, thank heaven for Connor who lifts me right back up. 

2. We made soup today!! I have never been very skilled with soup making so I’m grateful for the way this one smells. Can’t wait to eat it tomorrow! 

3. We finished putting together Mycah’s gifts and they’re all situated in the car. I just can’t think where to put them tomorrow before lunch so she doesn’t see them. I’ll ask Dorothy when I get in to stash them in mammo somewhere. I’m so excited!!
