What's the saying? A watched kettle never boils?



THIS IS KILLING ME!!!

I thought I had what it takes to be a patient adult, but I'm as bad as a two year old! Every single morning at 10:01 am, I find myself jogging over to our mailbox eager to open up that little silver door in hopes of finding my BodyStep assessment sitting in there waiting to be read.

I swear, the poor mail lady can't fully do her job because I'm hovering over her secretly shouting in my head "Come on come, faster lady FASTER! Fill the boxes woman!!!" But alas, flyers, visa applications, and cell phone bills seem to be the only paperwork that ever gets left for me.

ARGH!!!!

I received a confirmation email a few weeks back stating that the big wigs in Toronto had obtained the copy of my BodyStep video for assessment and that it would take 4-6 weeks to be returned to me. Okay, can I just quickly explain that the video is literally one hour long. It would honestly take one or two hours to make a decision and then send it right back. sigh. I'm driving myself bonkers with this...

The assessment will come back as either a fail, a resubmit (where they want to make sure that you will be able to improve on certain components of either the choreography, cueing, coaching, etc) or as a pass. If I DO get a pass, I'll finally be certified and will be able to teach my own class at one of the Goodlife Fitness Gym's around Calgary or anywhere in North America for that matter. I really REALLY hope I get it.

oh Summer, how I love you


Even though I'm off of school for two full months, my 'break' as one might call it has been jam packed with goodness.  It's ALREADY July 21st - hard to believe after everything that we've stuffed into three weeks.  Nate and I have been to the cabin and back, next was Vancouver and back - all by car I might add, we've attended two weddings, we celebrated my 30th birthday, we celebrated our 3rd year wedding anniversary, we climbed a mountain (literally), we landscaped part of our front yard and I finally submitted my BodyStep video to headquarters in Toronto after taping it FIVE TIMES!!! 
 (Still wasn't happy with the final video but "Que Sera Sera")

Yowza.  However, even though it's been busy, we're loving the sun, the friends and of course the good times.  Life is so fantastic.  Here are a few pics of summer 2010 thus far:
