Some random thoughts

I got a new car a few days ago. Well, new to me. Got rid of the pickup I'd been driving for two years. Guess there goes one more vestige of me, the old version. The pickup, for all of the negative things I said about it (not really) got me through a lot. Two jobs. Countless rides given to Cowboy Jason and others. A few moves. It always worked just fine, except for the time the windshield wipers conked out in a rainstorm on my way to Fresno.

I was grateful to have that car. I traded it in for a sedan that can actually seat Isaac and Savannah when they come to visit me in June. I'm not as excited as I would be if it were a brand-new car, but it runs, is big enough, and I'm sure will do just fine.

Easter was pretty wonderful. I went to my chapel to watch General Conference, only to find out the satellite feed was messed up. So me and about a half-dozen others ended up listening to it via the Internet. Then, on that Saturday and Sunday morning, I watched it from the Fresno stake center, a place I'd never been to before. Heard a number of inspiring speeches. I really like all three members of the Presidency for different reasons. Every time I go to conference, I am reminded of all the things I need to do to be better.

Still have much to do do get the life in order. I'm working on it and trying to be diligent. I think I have a pretty good idea of what needs to occur before I take that next step.
For this week, I'm concentrating on school stuff and finishing that by the time the week is over. Hopefully, will prepare for another trip to see the kids this month.
