Picking Up Where We Left Off...

Long time, no see Savvy Thanks blog! Tonight, I'm brushing cobwebs off this URL and picking blogging up where I left it in cyperspace almost a year ago!  Now the dedicated (ha!) owner of TWO blogs, I am  at my keyboard again! Every person in my English class now has their very own blog and posts things about who they are, where they come from, and what their purpose happens to be.  It sounds very deep and thought-provoking and intense.  So, as a break from beginning that blog, I've turned to my light and fluffy great-things-of-the day Savvy Thanks!

Breaks! I am thankful for breaks today!

Madeline and I just returned home from a five-day trip to Indianapolis, Indiana for this years National FFA Convention!  It was such a nice break of routine.  Our team made it to the semi-finals in the Agricultural Issues Forum Competition as we debated the best use of our land: cultivated cropland or natural grassland prairie. Neither side won, if you were wondering! :) 

Breaks are rejuvinating.  Refreshing.  "Distance makes the heart grow fonder." I can't remember where I heard that- but it is SO true! My blogging break made starting up again so fun! My break from school makes me anxious to get back to my desk! My break from running yesterday has me lacing up my tennis shoes faster than ever!
