Awkward and Awesome Thursday!

Awesome:
I get to see my sister and her five kids today!
My good friend Kim Miles is getting married today!
Saw a meter shower last night, it was awesome!

Awkward:
Being at FHE for the first time and had to draw Steve Young...... which is not a black football player. Whoops. Nothing like embarrassing myself to really make the ward like me!!

Forgetting the names of the new people you meet, and then calling them the wrong name the whole day! Sorry for that Austin.... I swear I thought your name was andrew!

Having a new roommate walk in while you are doing butt stretches in the front room.

Moving Day!

So its starting! I am going to move tomorrow!!!
I have basically been packing up all week. I quit one of my jobs just so I had time to do it all so instead of working 60 hours a week I am down to a measly 20!
So who know crap can accumulate into so much stuff. Seriously thought I have five, count it FIVE, boxes of cloths and then another suit case full, that is even after giving a butt load away and sending bags off to the DI. I have an addiction and I know that. I actually even called my sister down to my room to shake me to my senses and make me give stuff up. Its a problem.
Anywho life has been great! I went to Nauvoo with my family and that was just wonderful! ( post on that later) After Nauvoo I have basically just been with the family doing family things, which leads me to my next point.
Moving is hard! and no I am not talking about packing up boxes and getting a sweaty moving things around.  I am talking about the emotional weening I go through every year with them. I leave, then go back for four months, then leave again. Not sure how I like this.
I put on my big girl panties and leave home, and just as I feel comfortable- they come off again.
I am not sure if other people are like this-struggle so much to leave their parents behind. I think its because I am the youngest- and I had my parents all to myself for three years so its hard!
But beside the emotional hardness I am ready to get back! I am ready not be working all the time and ready to see my friends again. I am ready to start school and jump back into things again. I may hate moving but it is exhilarating! that is for sure.
