*Does anyone else out there have to work night shifts? That's what I get to do tonight and boy do I despise them! They throw off my eating and workout schedule. Plus, I always feel awful the next day. I'm totally a go to bed early, get up early kind of gal, so this stuff is rough. Here's to hoping seven am gets here quickly.
*Last weekend was my trip to Big Sky, Montana. We had a group of about 25 people and we rented a big cabin. Just like last year, it was a lot of fun! I'll have to do a separate post with some pictures.
*Some exciting news: my grandparents received their mission call and they are going to serve in the Atlanta, Georgia mission! They leave the second week of March. I am really excited for them. Although, I'm not gonna lie, I am going to miss my Grandma Geneal like crazy. I tend to escape to her house whenever I'm having a bad day. It's alright though, I can still write letters. The blessings will far outweigh any small inconvenience on my end.
*Every Thursday there is a small group of us that gets together and plays volleyball. Growing up I never really played. High school was filled with soccer, basketball, and track. Although the volleyball coach did try to recruit me several times. Soccer always won out though. That being said, I must say that I have found a new love in volleyball. It is a LOT of fun. I'm not the best, but I am a lot better than I used to be. The soccer player in me tends to come out still. I have been known to kick the ball across the net on several occasions. Good thing it's legal!
*My bike trainer came in the mail. I'm actually pretty excited to use it. Still can't believe I won it.
*I am at that point where I am really ready for winter to be over with. Unfortunately, winter in Idaho lasts until about April. One of these days I need to move somewhere warmer. In the mean time, thank goodness I have a tropical vacation planned. Only one more week!!
*So Valentines Day is coming up and Happy Valentines to me I will be headed for the Bahamas that very day. I never can decide if I'm a fan of this holiday. I certainly never have a significant other for the blessed event. I don't really believe in being a Negative Nancy either, so what I generally end up doing is sending flowers and writing ridiculous poems for my friends. Surprising others is one of my favorite things and it certainly brightens my day.
*It was my friend Jeremy's birthday yesterday. I generally don't like to brag, but the cheesecake I made turned out extra awesome. There were no cracks, the top was a perfect smooth beautiful cream color and I even put it in a professional looking cake box. Jeremy said it was the best cheesecake he has ever had. Brandi agreed. And I felt super special. Thank you mama for teaching me how to make a killer dessert!
