Crazy Busy

Well it has been a busy few weeks. Work has been crazy-trying to set up tutoring programs. I'm heading the Mentor Tutoring where are 6th graders tutor our 4th graders. We start Monday...wish me luck! Also , I have been volunteering at the Dialysis Center on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I absolutely love it! I have one old man (Byron) that I spend most of my time visiting with. He reminds me of Grandpa Welling :) Sometimes it is funny, like my 1st time there. Everyone was sleeping and the only two people awake refused to talk to me. They just wanted to watch TV. Then finally I got Jonas, my Native American, friend to chat. He was pretty funny, but it is hard to relate sometimes with such a culture gap. Soon we'll have BINGO and Checkers going...if they wake up enough to play :). 
This past week my in-laws and I have been canning peaches like crazy! But i love it. I always wondered how Grandma Welling got her peaches so smooth and the pits out so easy. I've always wanted to learn how to can, and I'm glad that Peggy has the patience to teach me :)
But mostly, Dustin and I are way excited for the BYU-Wyoming game on Saturday!!!!! I'm mostly excited to see my family. I miss them like crazy. Someday we will live closer :) I am thinking about wearing my BYU get up and sitting smack dab in the WY section!!!! We'll see how brave I am. Dustin says he'd sit somewhere else to avoid the embarrassment :)
