1. General Conference. I loved the talks by Elder Oaks, Elder Holland and Elder Scott.
2. Scooters. The BEST apple cider in the most gigantic mug ever.  (Two hands required!) And absolutely fantastic company.
3. Kemper Museum of Art. Not a lot of artwork I was crazy about, but there were one or two paintings that made me laugh… purple hair is so not what I would do for a self portrait. (Unless, of course, my hair was purple.)
4. Nelson-Atkins Museum. I could have spent all day here.  I need to go back.  Soon.
5. Bikram Yoga. My best session in four months.  (Granted, it was my first session in four months.)  I am surprised how bendy I still am given my hiatus.

I was sitting here tonight thinking about my blog post, and thought I’d make a list of the top ten the things I miss about living in the city.  Turns out, I couldn’t come up with ten.  Sure, I miss the convenience of having some things right there – Whole Foods, Bikram Yoga, Cool Art Galleries, Great Restaurants and Good Shopping – but for most of those things, 40-60 minutes really isn’t a bad drive.  (It’s not like I’m facing lots of traffic on that drive.) I’m debating whether it’s worth the trade-off.  You see, I have “space” issues. Eventually I want my own space.  Like acres of space.  Enough for at least two pigs (see About Me).  And two big dogs.  And room to grow my OWN organic wonderful fresh local produce.  And maybe even raise my own steaks.  (aka, I could create my own Whole Foods.  And it wouldn’t even be nicknamed Whole Paycheck.)

It’s a toss up.  If I found a way to put a Bikram Yoga studio somewhere on my space, I think I’d have a clear winner.  For now though, I’ll just drive.
