two wonderful brothers

i just bought a backpack for me to use camping and in europe soon. i did a little bit of searching around, but i would never have known what i was really doing without these two dudes.
obviously, there are more occurrences than just this week, but i have been especially grateful for their knowledge and willingness to share it with me. thanks for being loving and thanks for being good brothers. love you both.

what a turn around


last night, this woman [as wonderful as she is] haunted my dreams.

i dreamed that there was a girl painter that needed space in our studio, and V here offered up my very own space! i sat and pouted for a little while. she said i should have been working harder since the semester ended and then all of a sudden my space was clear and i couldn't do anything about it. V noticed how i was feeling, and said, "i gotta go talk to Slacker over here," and came to talk to me. she asked if i had anything to say for my work from the semester. i said no, because i felt sheepish. anyway, i woke up in a virtual sweat. i was so uncomfortable.

roommate CA and i went to the spring salon show in springville, and that was nice. the day was okay. then i got a voicemale from a lady back in my hometown. guess who's going to LA stake girls camp twenty eleven? thats right. me. i'm makin' it work. i'll most likely be hiking with some 3rd or 4th years. who knows.

then at work i get the updated version of our calendar for england. did i mention i'm going to england? for 3 months? and i'm visiting ireland afterward? well i am.

anyway, i got this sudden wave of excitement for everything that's happening and will be happening in the future. it was especially great after the chat i had last night with roomie CA about some transition anxiety i have been feeling.

new house. new ward. new adventures.

i'm feeling so positive and so excited for everything that is coming. known and unknown. just feelin' good. had to share it.

also, feelin' great about these women being in my life.
