updating

I really need to update this blog more often. I just realized it's been 3 weeks since my last entry, and a lot has happened since then.

Can I say.... I'm sick of this gosh darn weather! I have cabin fever like crazy! Today is actually a nice day, although am I outside? No. So, I guess I should stop complaining.

Last night, I went to the high school to watch the Divisional Boys Basketball Championship between Shelby and RockyBoy. RockyBoy is a reservation about 1 1/2 hours away. The game was awesome, even though some of the fans were not. I think that if fans start booing at a high school game, they should be thrown out! Unfortunately, we lost by 1 point!

I've been becoming very active in the First Baptist Church here. I'm in the choir, on the decorating committee, and attend services whenever they have them. I'm beginning to feel emotionally and physically better than I was a few months ago while renewing my relationship with God. I still haven't mastered the 'Cleanliness is next to Godliness' line though. :)

I recently bought an Amazon Kindle! For those who don't know what that is, it is an electronic book reader. It was pricey, but books are to me like videogames are to my brothers. When I moved to Montana, I had to donate loads of my books, due to a lack of space. This way, I can store the books on my device or Amazon account and it takes up less space than a magazine or paperback book. (it's about the size of a kids chapter book like the Boxcar Children or something like that!)

I'm really loving that it's getting closer to spring, due to all of the sales on winter items at Pamida (our Ames-like store in town that's rather pricey.) I'm getting sweaters and long sleeved tops for $5! I still can use them for the rest of this season, and save them for next winter as well!

All right, off to see if I can become more Godly by washing my dishes!

Miss you all back home!

February!

I can't believe it's the 1st of February! Last month just flew by!

Believe it or not, it has been warmer here over the last few days than back home in NY! I've been getting used to the cold here, but I'm excited for Spring to pop up!

I think I'm officially experiencing cabin fever. Yes, I am actually participating in a lot of activities. However, I would love to take walks outside, but I can't. It's just too cold! I hate getting into my car because my car is frozen on the inside, and I don't want to waste the gas warming it up! Also, I want to clean my car out, but again, it's too cold to be outside!

I hope that we get a warm spell soon!
