What a Week...

Well this week has been kind of crazy. Last weekend was conference which was wonderful, I really enjoyed listening and watching all the talks and having such a spiritual weekend. One fun thing we have going is that we are in the choir for regional (stake) conference, I guess like every 3rd or 4th stake conference is now a regional one with a broadcast from the conference center. ON the 21st of October it will be the Salt Lake South conference, its like 104 stakes. Ranging from 4500 S to point of the mountain and from at least Herriman (where I live) to I think Park City if not more. Its done by mission, so the Salt Lake South Mission. Anyways that isn't that important.. But its more time consuming then I thought it would be, we have practices very frequently. We are singing 2 congregational hymns which we have to have memorized with parts and then 2 arrangements in addition that have to be memorized. Its so fun to be back in the choir setting I really enjoy it. One new and interesting development is that my range has changed, I don't know if its from the lack of practice or if its just shifted. But I am now singing 1st alto instead of soprano its been kind of a challenge but really fun to learn new parts to songs. We actually have a dress rehearsal tonight at the conference center, its going to be lots of fun!

Well we have had a couple stressful weeks with some health issues for Jake, but he's doing better and fighting to get caught back up in school and stuff. He's looking for a new job, that doesn't require 2 hours of driving and not getting paid enough and not having insurance...

The basement is coming along quite nicely, they started putting insulation in yesterday, so the electrical is done and its going to be really nice. There are somethings I would have done differently but it should be very good and I will make the things I am unsure about work to my liking and find ways to make things be the way that is functional for me. I will get some new pictures soon.

I had to take the week off from the Pharmacy because its been so busy this week. Its been pretty nice to be able to go home, but I should really try to focus on getting my hours in... Whatever.

With regards to pharmacy stuff I got registered for my test, November 30th is the day that will hopefully change my career. I am also starting to think more seriously about going for the gold and getting my PharmD, to become a Pharmacist. It would be about 6 years of school... So I wouldn't graduate until I was 30, but it might be worth it, I would be able to work part time and still make a really excellent salary... So we will see, the pre-req's are scary to me, Human Anatomy, Human Physiology, Chem 1 & 2, Organic Chem 1 & 2, Calculus 1 & 2, Physics and some other classes to get into those plus writing and stuff. Its kind of a scary thought, I am pretty sure I could do it, but its so much work and a really long time... So we will see! (I guess I should get through this first huh.)

This weekend will be amazing! I am so excited. Suzanne is going through the temple on Saturday. It will be so wonderful, she is my best friend since 7th grade, which was about 12 ago and we have been through a lot together and I am so excited that I will get to be there when she goes through the temple for the first time, what a wonderful thing to experience. I know she is nervous and anxious about the the G's thing but she is such a spiritual person and has been through so much in her life that it will really be a great experience for her and I think it will reiterate the principle and truthfulness of eternal families and the blessings of exaltation we are promised.

One thing I have mentioned before but still need help on is on Jake's blog, he is really hoping to get that XBox deal, we've had 1 person do it, Thanks Hill!, but need 11 more, it can only be one per household or else I would do it for him, but I can't... I know there are some free offers on there that can be cancelled according to the directions through the link thing, so if anyone would be so kind to look at it, we just need 11 more and then we can get it and would be so excited!!!
