Some Randomness For You.

I don't have anything specific to write about but I really feel like writing tonight. Too bad I don't have any cool topic or something I can narrow down to an interesting point. So, I guess I will just talk about some random things! Yay!

• We had a lot (a lot being about 7-8 inches) of snow on Wednesday and Thursday. I loved watching the snow fall and getting the kids excited to watch it out the window. Unfortunately, it has been too cold for them to go out and enjoy it, so we've brought it in to them to play with in the sensory tub! Molly on the other hand is not liking the snow so much. I'm sure it must be difficult when the snow is piled up above your head, don't you think so! I meant to get a video, but Jon's been the one taking her out. She usually likes to hop in the snow to do her duty and since the snow is so tall, she has been stubborn. At least she's learned how to pee on the sidewalk. :) Hopefully she'll learn.
  
• Last Saturday was a very exciting day for me, I opened my Wheeling library account! I love libraries and library days and the smell of libraries and just that I can walk around and look at all these cool books and take them home with me and not have to pay (unless I'm late...). I think a big reason why I love going to the library is because my parents were always great about surrounding me with language and taught me a love for books and therefore took me to the library often (thanks Papa and Hoodie!). I can still remember the smell of the old Manitowoc library. It's too bad that they have a new one now. Anyways, I had a wonderful time exploring my new library, they have a great collection of children books, DVD's, and many other sections including foreign language novels; I thought this was great! I found some newer movies I was wanting to see with The Boy, so that was great. I also saw that they had Laurel and Hardy, Animaniacs, and some other wonderful oldies! Today, I went to the library again, yay! This time Jon came with me, but didn't make it past the entrance chair to read the book he already brought with him. Maybe next time he will skip along with me through the library, maybe. I was excited because I was picking out books for my classroom winter unit. What more fun could you have on a Saturday morning than looking through children's winter animal books! No, I'm serious. I checked them out along with a few new movies and as I was walking out of the doors, the beeper went off. I thought I checked everything out correctly (the computer self-checkout is not as easy as they want it to be). I had a pile of about 20 books for the lady to go through where I proudly told her, "These are for my classroom!" I don't know that she was overly impressed, but just glad that I didn't steal any children's books.
• After going the library today, Jon and I went to the mall hoping to find him a new pair of jeans. No luck. But, I found a pair! We both seem to like to pick out clothes for each other to try on, but not usually buy them. I still don't exactly know what styles Jon likes on me. It was nice to wander around while sharing some Caribou and not spending more than $30.
• Jon was able to hang out and go to a movie with an old Bethel roommate that lives in the area. So, I had some fun of my own by organizing the kitchen a bit and emptying a few boxes left over. What a feeling of success! We are looking forward to getting our new pantry cupboard to help organize even a bit more.
  
• Oh, picked up my new reading glasses today; I must be getting old. sigh. Jon said, "You're 23, you have pretty old eyeballs," he was trying to encourage me. Thanks honey.
• I am hoping for more good news about Nona. I'm thankful for all the family that has been able to be there and help out.
  
• I'm looking forward to going to church tomorrow! I suggest listening to these sermons, they're great! We've been going through Revelation and I am learning a lot that I never knew or could even realize on my own. So, that's why I'm excited to go to church with the Boy tomorrow. If you have time, take a look at the sermons, they're very God-inspired and therefore very inspiring and insightful.
• Now, time to cuddle with the Pocket, read, and wait for the Boy to come back from the movie!
  

Thanks for reading my random overview of the day!
