Vitamin D is underrated...

In my last post, I promised to return on the next rainy day I had to spend in a coffee shop. I am in a coffee shop, but it is not raining. On the contrary...it is well on it's way to being a 90 degree day. And while I tend to favor rainy days, I must say that it has been one of the most beautiful, sunny, warm spring weekends ever created. This is mostly due to that fact that we didn't get a late freeze to kill all the lilacs and apple blossoms this year...so every breath you take is laced with their fragrance right now. Simply wonderful. Anyhow. To catch you up, as promised....

The job: In October I will go on part-time YoungLife mission staff in Hill City. This essentially means that I will be doing pretty much what I have already been doing for the last five years, only now I will be getting paid for it, and I'll have more time to do it. I'm not sure this is fair, actually. It seems like I'm getting a heck of deal. I mean, I was pretty much happy doing it for free. My only gripe was that my job just seemed to be getting in the way, in terms of time to commit to hanging out with kids. But that has been remedied. I guess the pay is just a bonus. What this also means, is that I get to move to Hill City. And spend the other half of my time working at Granite Sports. So pretty much, all I need is a giant dog, a bicycle, and tree house and I'll be the happiest girl you know.

It is far to lovely outside to sit here by the window any longer. I must get out there in the sunshine. So I'll fill you in on the trip some other time. I'm out.

Hola, Mi Amigas!

Hey kids! This is for the few faithful that are left out there. Those two or three people that still check my blog, periodically, even though I only post 3 times a year anymore. I just dropped in tonight to say that I have plenty to catch you up on some rainy day when I'm sitting in a coffee shop with a public use computer. Since the last time I was here I have traveled the world (or at least a small part of it) and gotten a job that actually does have something to do with my expensive college degree. You know I'd much rather just sit in a coffee shop and tell you about it than type about it, so feel free to give me a call if you find yourself in the vicinity on a rainy afternoon. I know a good coffee shop or two...
