Spring has Sprung!

OK...so it's probably a bit too early to say that just yet...but it sure does feel good to have the sunshine and warm temps. I even broke the flip flops out yesterday and opened my windows for a bit today. My rule is 50 and we hit that...so it was a must. The grey days were beginning to wear on me and I was suffering from some major cabin fever. I'm just going to reiterate again how much I hate Winter and seeing it go is such a beautiful thing. I'm ready for all the rain to come and wash away all that this past season has brought. I was at Walmart today *sidenote* Does anyone else think Walmart is one of the most depressing places in the States? I do...at least the Beloit Walmart. Anyway...I was at walmart and all winter long they had these huge mounds of snow that had been plowed in the middle of their already cramped parking lot. Well today as I looked at the mounds melting I was blown away at what I saw. These mounds look like icy land fills. It is so disgusting to me how careless we have become. See...all that garbage was there but it was covered up by the beautiful white stuff (Ohhh...good sermon analogy!) I know this was seemingly nothing...but to me it just spoke volumes about the state of the community of Beloit. It's just so sad.

As far as life for me goes...I can just say it's interesting. I'm learning and experiencing new things. I'm growing in new ways. I'm looking forward to what God is doing in my life and who He's bringing in to it. Beloit is my home now. I feel comfortable in my skin here now. I got a roommate a little over a month ago now, and that's going really well. Now only has it helped me out financially in a huge way it's been really good for me. I was getting a bit too selfish in the way I was living and for some reason having someone living with you and seeing the way you live and act is a quick wake up call to being the person I really want to be.

On a completely different note, I have had the desire to learn something new lately. I've even been looking into taking a course or two at Blackhawk College just so I can get my hands into something else. My brain is bored.

So that's it. That's what's going on in life right now. I know...it's just so dang exciting you can barely contain yourself.
