Isn't it great that we can start over every year. It's an annual clean slate. I love it! Well for this year I have some fun goals, which include finding a full time teaching job, maybe date somewhat, do another half marathon, and if I'm really lucky go on a traveling adventure. I was lucky enough to go to Mexico this last summer, that rocked.
I've started running again, and have only missed one day. Baby steps right? It will be awesome, I'm thinking about running the Park City half in Utah, cause Jackie said it was a pretty good one. I want to PR from last year of 2:40. It's in August so I think there's a good chance of improvement.
Christmas was fun at home, I got to ride my horse a couple times and see all the family. I even traveled to Sacramento for a few days to see friends, then I flew back to Utah from Sacramento via Seattle for New Years here. My bag got lost in the hustle and bustle of changing planes, since I only had 5 minutes to catch my flight, so they delivered it the next day! yeah everything intact. New Years was fun at home in Utah with snacks, Dick Clark's Rockin Eve, and watching parts of Inception while playing Apples to Apples. I win :) I'm so competetive...which reminds me I was thinking about getting some sort of basketball activity going for church cause I'm dying to play some team sports and nobody seems to want to organize the activity. I'm on it!
The last 2 days have been great because I got to see 2 great friends I haven't seen since I graduated BYU 3 or 4 years ago! But it was cool because it was as if no time had passed. Jana and Eila and I met up at the Smith Field House at BYU for a bit of a jaunt. A mile or so, but Eila went for 2. Then we ate in the skyroom of the wilk, where Chad Jana's Bro met up with us! Love that kid, haven't seen him since...before his mission? Not even sure! After eating we all still wanted to hang out, so we went to the Carl Bloch exhibit, which mostly is paintings from the life of Christ. It was my second time and so awesome! I might be going again this Saturday with people from my ward. Carpooling that's always a fun time for bonding :)
I came back the next day as well for Jana's cousins party and that was fun. Just spending time with friends is so great! Especially when they know you and have your sense of humor. You can really relax and enjoy yourself, you don't have to analyze what people are thinking and all the social hooplah.
This Saturday there are three parties down in Provo, all dancing :) An appearance is a must! Maybe even country dancing after? I like it!
