Push yourself to do things outside of your comfort zone when there is some self improvement available on the other end. CSAUP was this for me. I was a whiny toddler multiple days ahead of Saturday for lots of reasons. Mainly because it was going to suck and I didn’t want to do it. When it was all said and done, it did suck, but I enjoyed it thoroughly and being able to say I did it feels great.

    Today I spoke about my Grandfather. We are burying him this afternoon. He was 90 years old and lived a full life. its really hard to live in the moment and realize the memories that you are making in real time, but that is something that I want to be better at. I am very thankful for the 2 hours I had with my grandfather over last weekend, it was the last time I got to spend with him.

Then trying to retrieve my keys so I could get my phone, I knocked them into the suspension on the Honda. Of course they got hung up and didn’t fall to the ground. Hard to retrieve them while everybody waited on me. Morning not off to a good start. Thanks for picking me up guys

                    It was nice to enjoy the finer things in life this morning on the mountain. The ascots and smoking jackets were a nice touch. I was a bit taken aback when a servant emerged to re-tie someone’s shoe laces, but to each his own. I look forward to my next visit, assuming I would be tolerated for a second session
