Got it ;)

Alrighty so I said I wanted to start playing the banjo and I went ahead and bought one today! I am so stoked to start playing and learning music! Can't wait to post something eventually when I learn some stuff.

Besides the banjo I have been home for a week and I leave Sunday for Park City! This week has been very busy for me. Trying to get everything organized, move my storage, see my friends/family, have fun, meet with my doctor, and eat as much pho as I can while I am home ;) . Love me some pho... What I can say is that everything is going by so smooth.To be honest I have no idea how it is. Normally I work so well under stress, so maybe that is why. One week to pretty much unpack, pack, and go. 

Nicol came home with me for about five days and we had a blast! She got to meet a lot of close friends and family. When we got into town we immediately made our way to see my mother and then straight to Bellingham to have a night out on the town. Blue Scholars were playing so we had bought our tickets the day before. It was amazing. Felt so good to be back. I was estactic. The next few days I showed her my area and we went to some sweet spots. Her last night we went to Seattle to meet up with some friends and went out to a few bars, not too shabby. It was a good visit with her and I am going to miss her so much! She lives in Colorado so we will hang out over the Winter for sure.

 The visit with my mom was amazing. But it brought out a lot of tears and things I have been holding in all summer. Mostly about my bro.. Ugh it was easy to go to Alaska not knowing anyone and having no one know about him passing away. I could go on everyday exploring and doing my own thing. The only time I had to talk about it was when I wanted to share. Being home in Washington everyone knows and asks. Especially the momma bear. So we got into some deep heart to hearts, cried, and just talked it out. It felt so good. But I can say it def brought those feelings back. My mom let me know being home in Washington and feeling what I did then leaving again was going to be hard. And she is right. It is going to be super hard...We will see I suppose..Until next time...
