Kinda sad...

I feel like such an idiot right now. I just found out that none of the Henry Coker clan is coming to Utah, several of people from Alex's side aren't coming up and I'm beginning to feel like having a reception in Salt Lake is stupid and pointless. As stupid as it sounds, I'm sad I won't get my song. There is, what has become a tradition in our family, a song that is sung at each wedding by the cousins. I won't have any cousins there. Wow, that freaking sucks. I understand why each of them can't be there but it just really bites. I hope I have more than 20 people show up, at this point, not so sure.

Tomorrow is my birthday. It will be the first time I've worked my birthday in several years. Alex, Mom, Dad and I are going to go eat at New York Pizza and Pasta after work. For that I am excited. I love that little place, just a whole in the wall place that has really good food. Nothing great or grand, but that's how I roll.

Saying No

I kind of suck at saying no. Last Sunday one of the sisters in the ward who was supposed to teach today asked me to teach for her since she wouldn't be here. It was my week to teach in sunday school and I think there must be some sort of malfunction in me that makes it hard to say no so I told her I would teach in relief society as well. In all fairness, I didn't tell her that I was teaching in sunday school. I've become rather fond of teaching Gospel Essentials but Relief Society is still a bit overwhelming. Today marks the whole second time I've taught in Relief Society. People said that I did a good job and I feel that over all I did pretty well.

I was supposed to start the rehab on my back tomorrow but I changed the appointment to tuesday so that it only affects 2 of my work days. I am really excited about starting. I did the dishes this evening and I would like to note that it was the first time in a long time in which my back didn't hurt standing there. That is freaking AWESOME! Hopefully once I start, I'll be able to be done with the majority of the rehab by the end of the year, first part of next year. Just in time to move....hopefully.
