Remember me?

So I am the worst blogger ever.

I'm not going to Montana this summer. After I had been training for a month, Outward Bound contacted me and offered me $500 instead of the $4000 I asked for. I actually thought about going majorly into debt to go on the course, but my family talked me out of it. That was a big bummer. Other opportunities have come up locally though, which in a way is much cooler. I just started going to pool sessions/roll clinics at Wheeling Jesuit University to learn the basics of kayaking. It costs $20 for 10 weeks. I'm meeting local paddlers that I can hit the open water with this spring. Last night I tried to learn how to roll. Doing anything when you are suspended from a boat upsidedown underwater is difficult. Especially when you start to panic and stop thinking about what you are supposed to do- because then you just do everything wrong. I can roll as long as I don't have a paddle in my hand. But as soon as you put a paddle in my hand I do everything wrong. I'm sure I was entertaining to watch.

I'm practicing my violin every day- which is amazing. My playing has a long way to go before I even reach the level I was at 4 years ago, but I can see little improvements which is enough to keep me motivated.

Where is the snow? Where is winter? I know, it's all in Denver. Winter has not yet arrived in Wheeling. Our weather has been in the 50s and 60s all "winter". It's so crazy.

Ok, I'm blank. I don't know what else to write.
Later.
