I'm back from vacation and into dance competition mode. Our first dance is the Waltz and we're dancing to "Sam." My suspicions about Eric were right - his gymnastics background has given him the tools he needs to become a great dancer. I'm really excited. I could have a repeat win!

The vacation was okay. I was missing Josh the whole time. They had live music and dancing at night (ballroom dancing!!!) but I had no one to dance with. My father was tired the whole time. My grandmother was worried about him. Molly was out scoping out guys. It looks like she and Tim are officially over. She realized that they had no future with him living in Australia and her in the US.

I was missing Josh so bad. My father offered to fly me back to Tennessee with my grandparents, but I had to be home for dance rehearsals. So much to do, but it's good - it keeps me distracted.
