8/20/11 - Blog full of random odds and ends.

I'm laying on my bed listening to the rain pouring down, the thunder rolling mightily above. I close my eyes and take it all in. The window is open, letting in fresh air. I love that smell. I love this feeling it leaves me with, so natural, so familiar. The power just went out, random note. I am in back in Pagosa for the time being. I loved doing a surprise trip, I love peoples reactions when the realize I'm in town. :) The dog is freaking out so now he is laying with me all snuggled up. Anyways, I went to Kacey and Britton's wedding today, and it was so beautiful! I loved it, and enjoyed every second of it. It still blows my mind that she's married! But they were so meant to be, it's amazing. Sister and I went on a nice bike ride last night. I love riding bikes. It's almost scary how loud the thunder is, the crackling and booming, but I'm peacefully enjoying it right now. I'm enjoying being back a lot, but I am quite home sick. Never thought Iowa would feel so much like home. I miss my Matthew bunches, I really really wish he could have come with! I am enjoying having girl time and chatting constantly with my sister, I have missed her so much. As soon as I got here I think we talked for hours straight. The poor dog does NOT like this storm, lol. I have missed how well my hair does down here. I used to complain about this and that, but after living in Iowa I finally realize what a blessing Colorado weather is on my hair. Haha. I kind of really want to go out to dinner tonight, but I really rather save my money. Why spend money eating out when there is food in the house, that's how I see it. So maybe I'll dine in, make a yummy dinner and use candles, maybe even make a fort in my bedroom and make it some fancy french place! Ahh, I love using my imagination. I kind of can't wait to use it someday when I have kids. I have definitely missed Colorado, but strangely enough, not as much as I thought I would have. It's weird how much I've come to love Iowa. I think checking tomorrows weather and this weeks forecast and then a nap sound rather splendid.
