Hello everyone.
I just got back from manitoba. I went there to my friend Katie's farm with 6 other sweet friends. We spent the weekend snowboarding and skiing. I spent alot of time in the lodge doing homework but it was still fun.
Katie's family used to own a PMU (Pregnant Mair Urine) farm. I saw tons of horses and pet some. The also have guinea foul, those crazy birds and tons of other animals. I was a really neat place, its out on the prairies in the middle of nowhere, they built it themselves. Their house is a log cabin type deal and when we walked in we were greeted with the warmth of a woodstove and the smell of fresh baked bread. Katie's mom makes her own flour and it was honestly the best bread i have EVER tasted. I just loved that family. They make their own granola and tea and it was just really peaceful and nice place. They also instruct skiing lessons on the hill which is neat.
Anyways, Sunday was mine and Jonathan's three month. A neat day, we drove home together and just read outloud and listened to Paul Simon. I had a soccer game that night and man was i tired. We played the first place team and only lost by one. That was exciting.
I have spent the day reading and little bits of homework. Right now i am in between a million things before i head off to my very first Curves appointment. Yes that's right, i have joined an all ladies gym, and i am really excited. The gym is 2 blocks from my house and my work is about a block from there.
You know, i havent really shared any major philosophical thoughts with you guys yet. One thing that i have been thinking about these last couple of weeks is how full my metaphorical tank is. I would say i'm on a half tank. What i mean by that is i'm not overly happy, but i'm not overly sad either. I am just sorta exsisting for the time being and living day by day. Part B of that questions is "whats next". Thats a hard one, but i have come to realize that we are given each day and we must decide what we are going to do with it. Deuteronomy 30:15 says "Choose life, see i have set before you today life and prosperity, death and adversity." We are given those two choices everyday. We can choose life or death. And i have concluded that it all comes down to attitude. SO what i am trying to say is that i need to have a better attitude about my days, and i need to love more. This is where pondering about my metaphorical tank lead me.
So, how is your tank? How did you get there? and what is next?
love you
Britt
