Weekends mean coffee, shopping and long posts.

I haven't really posted about what I'm doing for a long time.

We moved to Georgetown a few weeks ago as you already know and settle in after a weekend or so of dodging stacked boxes and overturned furniture. But we're settled in alright and getting back to homework and Crossfit. Gymnastics practice is the highlight of my day, which is a very good sign. I took a whole week off two weeks ago because the sick bug attacked me. I was emotionally and physically exhausted that whole week and getting back into training was challenging. But I'm back to full training plus extra in the living room in the mornings. I love the feeling I get when I come home from practice at night knowing that I gave everything a had to my training and got somewhere. Wonderful feeling!

I went to a college gymnastics meet last night: UW Huskies vs UCLA Bruins. U-C-L-A Fight Fight Fight! UCLA dominated the competition! Yesssssssss. I spoke with the head coach of the UCLA team and she remembered me from the camps and gave me a big long tight hug. She says she remembers my work ethic and told me to keep her posted on how I am doing. She also knows of my coaches, Yulia and Guennadi and their reputation. That's a good thing as far as I'm concerned.

Caden's 18 months yesterday and I'm exactly 14 1/2 today. In thirteen days we'll have been in Seattle for six months. Wow.

Along with Orson Scott Card books I'm reading and taking notes on Denis Waitley's book Seeds of Greatness. I truly recommend this book to anyone who plans on being successful in life. There're some great tips and inspiration.

My next meet is in 2 weeks in Portland OR in case anyone's wondering.
