Support

I have a very dear friend that has dealt with chronic illness for some time now. I first met her when she did not have any of the physical issues that she battles with today. She is a great inspiration to me on enduring through adverse situations. I love her dearly! She has created a blog to be able to help others that are in much the same situation as she is. She is always willing to help others and is one of the most selfless people I know. Please share her blog with anyone you may know that deals with chronic pain. I love you Em! http://chronicillnesssurvival.blogspot.com/

My Mission President

My former mission president and his wife are now serving a mission in China, teaching english at a woman's university in Bejing. This summer they volunteered at the Olympics. The Church News did a piece on them a couple of weeks ago. Here is the article. (Just click on the article and it should appear at a more readable size. :) ) Enjoy, and let me know what you think! I couldn't be more pleased!

It's Official!!

So, nearly everyday since I finished my classes, I've been checking to see when my degrees would post. Part of that reason is because in order to apply to take the CPA exam, I have to have my degrees. This morning when I checked, this is what I saw:

I have a Master's degree! (Poor bachelor's gets less limelight, but I also received that as well!) As soon as the actual certificates come, I'll take a picture and post them. Happy Labor Day!
