fall, swimming and other things.

after a very hard, stressful and emotional last two weeks i have to let the world know, swimming heals the freaked out teen!-and any other stressed out personage.
studying for the ACTS and that whole bit sprinkled a lot of tension on my relationships with everyone in my life.
but swimming 50 laps alone in a lukewarm pool with a chill in the air made me happy to be alive. i know that sounds cheesy but nothing in the world- besides Disney movies, cameras, and in-n-out- can make me feel better than a good work out.
i love it!
another thing that i love that is worth mentioning is fall! i love all the leaves on the road. i love them so much that i swerved around in the road trying to make them fly around in the street. nick and i laughed when the chick and her daughter looked at me like i was crazy.
no worries! i wasn't intoxicated, just high on life!

so tell me, if the mood strikes you, what do you love right now? what makes you happy no matter what is happening in your life?

what makes me happy is that you are also happy when you're swimming, like me, and that you're also enjoying fall, which is surprisingly becoming my favorite season. (well, behind spring and summer, of course!)

What makes me happy? Well besides you, 16 kids related to you and daily nature, that would be 'words'. Words are lyrical in a good book; comforting and instructive in the scriptures (Example -2 Nephi 4:17-35 the happiest are 28, 30, 33, & 34). Words are fun in a good joke, expanding in a great lecture and entertaining, yes, even in some good Blogs I read.

Wish you could have been in Vermont with us. The Fall colors were spectacular. Check out bartimaeus's pics.

Yeah, you survived ACT's

Love
