I'm doing such a bad job at updating this thing! I keep going into it and I start typing, but then I have no idea what to talk about.
Tomorrow is my birthday! And I have to wake up at 5:30 in the morning to get ready for camp, where I'll drive to Home Depot/Winco in Eagle, jump in the Y suburbans that will take me to the Horsethief reservoir where the Y camp is. Everyone in the Youth Branch will be going on this little retreat. I think it will be a fun birthday. I am not looking forward to getting up so early though. The camp is just outside of Cascade, ID, if you all are interested you can google it.
Here is a picture of the reservoir itself. The camp is not directly on the lake, but we do have a lake front area.
This weekend I weekend I got my new phone, which is amazing, and hard to believe I got it for my job! I love it.
I also went to Tour de Fat. It's put on my the New Belgian Brewing Company, to promote riding your bike, healthy living, being environmentally friendly and drinking beer. I volunteered, and got a tshirt, two beer tokens and a painful sunburn. It was fun, very weird. The tour goes to a bunch of cities, Fort Collins, Denver, San Francisco and Austin!
I know none of you will believe me, but Boise is a very cool city. I think it might be working its way into the "coolness" of Seattle or Austin. I know, you don't believe me, but when you guys visit, you'll agree.
I haven't found an apartment yet, I'm taking my time, I need to still get adjusted.
I'm not sure what else to talk about, my job is fun and different and a lot of work and not a lot of work at the same time.
I miss my friends and family quite a bit, and my Goose-egg most of all. I had a horrible day dream of him running away, I can't wait to have him back. People in Boise are very friendly and I don't think I'll have too much trouble finding friends. If I can only have one of the things mentioned above, it would be Goose. Sorry friends, you know how much I love that pooch! He's my living, breathing, ball obsessing security blanket. (And my mom misses him to! Hard to believe-- I know) I am glad to have my mom around, she of course makes things easier.
I started watching Mad Men, it's an infuriating series, it's hard to believe women were treated that way. I just finished a book on Auschwitz, that was uplifting. Now I'm going to start the Hunger Games, a ton of kids are reading it, so I have to too. I got to be up on what the kids are doing these days! Haha :-)
Love you all!
I think you'll really like the first book in the Hunger Games. Movie comes out March 2012!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to really get into yet. No time! But I think I'm going to take tonight to do some serious reading.
