july 19 rainstorm p

Indiana has not seen rain for 46 days from June 1 through July 16! Area farmer's crops are suffering, reservoirs are low, a county wide water ban is in place, and the plants and grass are brown and dry. For days the news has said scattered storms expected with no rain arriving, a huge let down! But finally rain has arrived!!! July 17, 18, and 19 have had rain!!! PRAISE THE LORD, we've had rain!! Who knew rain could make me feel so happy! :)

Sickness & Snow

FINALLY the sickness in our household is going away! What a crappy way to begin a new year! Both Gio & I have been sick :( He's got the worst of it though :( Poor guy, he'd been doing so good taking care of me, and how is his kindness returned? I think he actually had a 24-48 hr. bug of some kind, as he's feeling much better. now since i've been sick, i have already failed to commit myself to my new years goals. :( i didn't make it to church yesterday, nor did I call my parents. I did however keep my goal of not being on the computer as much, this is the first time all day that I've been on! A big + for me, as I spend far to much time on here. I am excited to be getting back to the gym this week too! I've been going since Sept. in the mornings before work, it's such a great way to begin my day! It makes me feel more energized and just overall good. I'm also stoked about Gio & I's first date of the new year, it's coming up this weekend! I'll recap my goals weekly (:

For the second time this winter we've had snow!! And it looks so pretty! Unfortunately, it won't be sticking around :( It's just been to warm, and I believe it's gonna be warm this week even, in the mid 40's :(  But with the lack of snow, it makes me kinda unknowing of how the next couple of months will be, I have a feeling we'll get hit hard very soon. I wouldn't mind the snow normally, but this year Gio & I are moving into our new home that's being built currently. I hope building won't be delayed due to the weather! But just a little more snow would be nice!
