Such a long day, but so many good things!I am grateful to my Heavenly Father that:-Emily rode the bus with me and it was fun!-Brian helped me wake up earlier in the morning. He even woke himself up early just to wake me up. how sweet is that? well, I kinda needed him too because I needed some extra motivation. -That my "interesting" dream was just a dream.-I was on campus for 2 hours before orch and practice I think.. 1 1/2 in the morning.-Jamilyn practiced orch music with me! that was so helpful and fun we should do it again sometime. -I survived orchestra, and realized that this is tough stuff for everyone. -I hung out with Don and he shared his sandwich when I was really hungry.-I had fun at work, and saw the elders, but different ones I didn't know.-My coworkers helped me - and Sam helped me try to get an envelope.-I mailed Justin's birthday card at a decent time.-I went to this amazing Quartet concert.-I saw many great people including Karin! she sat by me for the second half it was like old times it was great. And Emmalynn and Andrea sat by me for the first half. -Karin, Rachael, and I talked to the violist and he was super nice and gave some great tips, and his wife and little baby Valeria were so beautiful. the baby was SUPER adorable!-and Rachael and I spoke Spanish with them, how cool is that? Rachael is fun to do that stuff with. She helps me come out of my comfort zone I think. She's great.-I was able to practice afterwards. -Emily took me home, even though Debbie would've, that was nice of them to be willing.-I'm writing this list still! :)-Brian's writing and reading still! I hope this is helping us. At least I feel optimistic at the end of the day, and am grateful for my many blessings. today has been quite an awesome day.Love,Stephanie
