Nuff said?

Nothing better than accomplishment
I have felt miserable for the past week! It got so bad I took yesterday and today off work. It was a hard decision - be miserable at work and get paid or be miserable at home and lose out on money earned. When my coworkers starting making comment on how icky I sounded they made the decision for me. I think it helped - that and all the herbs my mom has me on :) Gotta love it.
Dane has finished his application for grad school. Really we should apply to a couple more places, but it was exhausting just to find UW. Why do legitimate schools make it so hard to find them? Anyway, he'll be taking his psychology GRE this summer and will take one (or two if I get my way) of the remaining pre-reqs he needs for a psych masters. If he doesn't get into social work this time we'll apply for pysch masters next year. We'll be even more ready.
We have accomplished one of the goals we set when we moved in with my parents: we have become essentially debt free. I owe it all to my husband. He spent hours on the phone negotiating deals and payment plans. So much time that we had to upgrade our minutes plan. We still make payments on two, but essentially we're free. It feels so good, so right. When we make that final payment, I'm going to celebrate! One goal down, two to go!
I have been a member of the church my entire life. That being said I have never read the Book of Mormon from cover to cover on my own. I've studied it in seminary, I've read it together with my family every morning growing up, but I've never done it on my own. Well no more, I officially finished it today. It was amazing! I can't wait to do the same for the other standard works. My favorite part of the day has been those five minutes when I get to work early and read in my car. It has helped me keep things in perspective, given me answers to problems I struggle with, and comforted me during hard times. I've been doing it on my iPod and lately my free version of the scriptures just isn't cutting it. Paid apps range from $.99 to $14.99 and I can't tell which one is best for me. I wish I could do trials for a couple days before I purchase... If anyone knows a good app let me know!
