I'm still here, just very busy at the moment.

Dax had a talk to deliver in sacrament this morning. He forgot about it until he was reminded 10 minutes before! He had that deer in the headlights look, but he was able (with a little help) to gather his wits, get some reference materials and deliver a relatively good 5 minute talk on gratitude (to a crowd of about 200 people). He was far more relaxed and composed than I would have been under the same set of circumstances. Today was Adam's first crack at blessing the sacrament as he just advanced to Priest last month. He started out a little quiet, but did a great job.

I finally finished baking the sugar cookies when we got home and got a really good start on the annual Christmas letter and photos we send out. Tomorrow will be spent with my physics book for the most part. I will have to take short breaks and start getting things together for the journey south on Friday. I am really getting excited about the trip and hope I can force myself to focus on physics as much as I need too. G'night. . .
