Stuff

It's amazing how busy you can be when you are on vacation.  This week I have been running all kinds of errands and organizing our apartment and baking and figuring out life in general.  I made a jewelry wall hanger.  It's pretty neat, I saw it in a magazine and decided to try it.  It turned out great!

I also baked bread and hummus which both turned out great too!  Feel like a regular old housewife these days.  But school starts again on Tuesday.  This semester I need to figure out my thesis, so forgive me if I write more about engineering.  And running.  I'm doing indoor track, so hopefully I'll be able to race by the end of this month.  I'm finally running everyday.  But the girls here run a lot faster than I am used to on regular runs, so I'll be sore even from the short ''easy" runs. 

It's finally snowing in Colorado.  Hasn't snowed a ton, but enough to wear hats and mittens and have to leave early to brush off the car.  Kids are sledding in the park.  And I hear it snowed in Seattle, and in Georgia.   So that seems like most of the country. 

Nate and I went to the Laughing Goat Coffee House after church.  That just makes me so happy.  I love coffee shop culture. You can just feel the creativity flowing.  There are always interesting people with interesting conversations.  Today there was some gypsies sitting next to us with the cutest little baby in a little sheepskin outfit.  Not sure what they were talking about but I'm sure it was cultured.  And they have live music and poetry readings and things.  Its not like going to a bar or club where you have the same kinds of people and the same type of music and conversation all the time. 

Anyway, til next time
