i can feel it

it's going to be a good week. i can feel it. i told dane that yesterday because sometimes saying things makes them happen, but also because i know that this week holds something special. thanksgiving is getting so close, and i am itching for a few days away from the job. it calls for a wonderful fhe celebration with the stokes family next week. excited to see them. katie makes me want to be a better person. don't you think we should surround ourselves with those types of people? dane and i played basketball tonight for fhe. i haven't really played for years. it felt amazing. i almost died of exhaustion, but i feel so relaxed and healthy now. i just need to get the eating under control at this point. chocolate is such a temptation. so happy that the stake yw presidency is taking care of mutual this week. we are going to have a great personal progress party. time to really get started on my personal progress. i am working on the annual thanksgiving challenge. a thousand things that i am grateful for. so easy, but so hard at the same time. i think it is a great way to spend my time. bunco is coming up this week. i can hardly wait to spend time with some fabulous girls. i sometimes get really shy when i get around a big group of girls, but it is a good growing experience. i have about a thousand things to do today, just like everyone else. instead of beating myself up for only checking some of the things off, i am going to enjoy my time. maybe i will put my to-do list away for the rest of the week. i think that is a great idea. the relief society is also putting on an activity this week. i miss feeling a part of relief society, and was ecstatic to add that to this week's calendar. on saturday the girls and i are going wedding dress shopping with kayla. it is going to be a great day. that girl is getting married. it freaks me out a bit. our family really does feel complete now though, and patrick is great. they both seem very happy. i am reading some extra materials for class. want to be that ideal student. ready to really excel in this program. in life. i am working on loving life and being more gentle with myself. i think i will go to bed early tonight. a little extra rest will encourage an early wake up. today was a good day, and this is going to be one normal, but incredible, week. i can feel it.
