Where has the time gone?

   We cannot believe how fast time has been flying! I guess that's what happens when we're moving a million miles a minute! That's definitely how it feels for us, especially lately! We have both been working really hard on all the different important aspects of our life.
   Glen has been working very hard at a job that he enjoys and is quite good at. If you haven't seen other posts (and also because I don't entirely remember what I wrote before) he is graduated and that has freed him up a great deal. He says it feels a little weird and out of place not having homework to do, but I think he's enjoying it because he doesn't ever take me up on the offer to give him some of mine. Though I do keep trying! We celebrated his birthday with dinner out at Texas Roadhouse. Then that weekend we had some cupcakes at my parents' house with the family. He just got called as the stake technology specialist which is right up his alley. He just got called so he does not quite know what all it entails but it will be good.
   I am still working at Things Remembered. I have been trained to be an assistant manager when a position opens up. I am okay where I am right now though given the workload I've got so far. I have been at UTA for a month now and I am getting used to it. There are some significant differences of course that are challenging me a little but not bad. I am excited for the 15 credit semester to be over. It gets tiring! I am also the primary chorister in our ward which I love. We just had our primary program which turned out well. I am glad to teach them some other songs that I absolutely love. So we are busy, but I am grateful to have Glen with me. He helps me a great deal and I could not keep the pace I do if he weren't there asking me how he could help and doing all he can.
   We moved into a new apartment in August. We like this one MUCH better. We are on the first floor instead of the third which all of us love except for Charlie. He hears and sees every little thing and just barks like crazy. He'll adjust! Plus we have not yet had pot smell waft into our living room like we did at the old apartment so I figure that's a step up. We are neighbors with my older sister Sarah. And that's always fun too! We're doing well, can't complain! I am really terrible at taking pictures...I really should do better. Someday I will!
   Here's a little food for thought!
"Sometimes all you need in 20 seconds of insane courage. Just 20 seconds of embarrassing bravery."
What will you do with your 20 seconds?
"Always pray to have eyes that see the best in people. a heart that forgives the worst, mind that forgets the bad, and a soul that never loses faith in God."
