“It's not just leaving my family and friends. It's the thought of leaving what has been your whole life. But, at the same time it's exciting to start a whole new life.” Aerial Gregston quotes

The good ole days and the amazing NOW

I'm addicted to my computer. So that and the fact that I have had some extra time tonight meant that I have been going on a nostalgic run through some old memories. I hooked up the external hard drive and have been reliving Philmont, some old concerts I went to, hikes I went on, and my time at Bonjour and the library. It makes me a little sad when I look back because the time has passed, but it really does make me happy too. I'm so fortunate to have had such great experiences that have all worked to lead me here to this point right now. And right now, I'm happy too. And I'm sure some day in the future I'll look back and think about this time and how great it was too. So I'm going to keep trying to make each day worth remembering.

I was out last night for my Tuesday volleyball league. It was a perfect weather night, we won 2 of 3, and I was sitting out eating, drinking, and talking, and thinking, if this isn't perfect, I don't know what is. Same thing happened to me Sunday. I was at Montrose beach playing beach volleyball for three hours. Only left because I had volunteering and church. It was just so perfect. I thought for a second, hey it sucks that they were doing this all last summer and I didn't know any of them then. But then I thought, at least I know them now.  I really do have S3 leagues to thank for a lot of my really great times here. I took the time yesterday to send a thank you email to the guy who runs the leagues to let him know what a difference he's making. Take some time in the near future and thank someone, give them a compliment you've been holding back. If someone helps you out, thank them!

Okay, lecture done. My 10 miler race is Saturday and I'm super pumped. I feel like a running rock star lately!
