The sun came out

I'm feeling much better about life right now than I was in my last post :) That blessing from Danny has made a HUGE difference for me.  It's like I came to work on Monday as a new version of me.  I was more confident, focused, determined and less stressed. Things are getting much easier and I'm able to not feel as much pressure.  After tomorrow, I just have one more week of training before I "graduate" from call center training.  I'm actually kind of sad thinking about it ending because I've become good friends with everyone in my training group and it'll be sad to not be able to eat lunch together, take breaks together and get punchy together after sitting in a room for almost 8 hours (it kind of reminds me of being in close-knit district at the MTC).  Overall, I am really enjoying it and I have to say that one common thing I'm noticing about people who I work with is this: they are HAPPY.  It's such a positive environment! The employees are taken care of (spoiled) which makes them happy, which makes them work hard, which makes the company successful.  Win. Win.

I also met with a fitness trainer on Wed and had a thorough fitness assessment done.  She (Katie) wrote out a plan to get me ready for a 5K in 2 weeks and then we sat together and made some short and long term goals.  I've been going to the onsite gym right when I get off work and it is so convenient.  I love having a trainer by my side to make sure my posture is correct when I am doing resistance training and to encourage me to do those last few reps :)

My time with Cole has been so much more precious to me.  The time that I have with him is quality time and I'm grateful to be able to come home and read stories before bedtime and say prayers with him before he goes to bed.  In the mornings we can usually fit in a game, some legos or dancing.  There's almost always time for dancing (especially if it's to Adele).

I can't believe it's August.  Just a few more weeks before school starts! That is too crazy to think about.  This summer is flying by.  Don't get me wrong--I love summer but I'm getting excited just thinking about all the fun things that come with Autumn :)
