Getting Ready

In honor of the end of summer.... this beautiful beach background. I am getting ready to bid summer a fond farewell. It has treated me pretty kindly this year. Not too hot, didn't overstay it's welcome, just right. I felt relaxed for most of it and had some fun.
The next few weeks will be a whirlwind. This weekend we will attend a swim party (probably our last trip to the pool this season) at the Aquatic Center, then off to Woods Cross. We'll have family pictures with my whole fam before sending off my baby brother to the Manchester New Hampshire Mission. I can't believe it was barely a year ago that he was moving up to Logan to live with us and attend USU. We all miss him. And we'll miss him even more in a couple weeks! The next weekend we get to stay home and just play. Then... I will be able to finish up in big style with a trip to San Diego!!! Yay for Daniel & Karla's wedding! If we can work it all out, we'll be able to get down with enough time to play a day at the beach, too! Then back to work and school. I am really getting excited for school when I can supress the stress that has been haunting me. I think I have finally made a firm decision that I feel pretty excited about. I am not ready to say anything. I still have to meet with an advisor, and get a plan, register for classes, and pay tuition. We shall see....

Hope the end of summer turns out great for the rest of you.

WHY?

Why do things have to be so complicated? Why can't answers just come right when we need them in an unmistakable way? So loud and clear that you just can't possibly miss it or misunderstand it? I am wishing for that now. I have wished for that many times before. Many.
Currently the biggest decision weighing on my mind is school. I am registered. I have financial aid. I have classes. What I lack is a definate direction. And when you're over 50 credits into school.... that is an uncomfortable place to be. I thought I knew what I was going to do. I was certain I knew what I wanted. So I jumped in with both feet. I talked to people, I got suggestions, I met with advisors, I planned classes, I applied for everything. Now here I sit, days away from the start of school with a knot in my stomach and questions swirling in my mind.
WHAT IS IT THAT I SHOULD DO???? WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE???

So if any of you are holding the Universal Book of Answers to Difficult Questions, would you please look up my destiny? Or at least pass it on already!
