Temperatures have been consistently cold the past week. Yesterday we had about 50 below with the windchill. I’m reminded, however, that it was 60 below in Tower, MN a year ago today. I guess I’m not exactly a stranger to the cold.<\/p>\n
Where was I 10 years ago? It’s hard to believe I was already a sophomore in high school! Time’s been moving so quickly (well, other than when it feels like it’s completely stopped!). I can’t begin to imagine where another 10 years will bring me!<\/p>\n
I have been extremely groggy this week. It’s not been good, as I need to be getting stuff ready for my upcoming school visits and trainings. I decided a change in scenery might be enough to do it and have planted myself in Bill’s office the past two afternoons. You should see, by this blog entry, that I’m being extremely productive. \ud83d\ude09 Actually, it has helped me to focus a bit, and I’m at least feeling prepared for my travels on Monday.<\/p>\n
Had coffee with my pals yesterday morning. Tiffany brought the best biscotti, and I have the recipe for it now. Yum! I got to see pictures of the Johnson’s trip to Anaheim. It looks like they had a great time. It makes me excited to travel to warmer weather! So, as always, the coffee and the visiting were both great.<\/p>\n
Sounds like we’ve got a trip to Wisconsin in the works for this fall. April, Amy, and I (and Trisha?) are going to head to Door County on a little adventure. I’m already looking forward to it, as I missed a trip to that area last summer – it was too busy and too short!<\/p>\n
Talked to Jimbo today. Sounds like work was going alright today, as he was the boss. We got to talking about Vegas, too. I’m even more excited to go since Dad had such a good time.<\/p>\n
Our nintendo came in the mail yesterday – unfortunately we have no games to go with it, though. \ud83d\ude41 The thing we got is not actually a nintendo, either. It’s some other brand that will play the original nintendo games. We’re harrassing Bill’s broadcasting students while we wait on a collection of our own games. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Laura and I got a fantastic conversation in while she watched the 7 year old Football Genius on Ellen today. Hrmph. (isn’t that a funny word?) Maybe we’ll talk later or tomorrow.<\/p>\n
So – that’s my day. I’m looking for the Norwegian Toast recipe that circulates around the Aune family. If any of you are reading this and have it near – feel free to e-mail it on. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
