Hello all!
So, as you know, I haven't written in a while, and the reason why is that I seem to have misplaced my memory card and memory card reader for my camera. Sad, I know! I have searched my apartment many times, but still have not been able to find it. I know that I just need to go buy a new one. But, that is the reason why I haven't written in a while. I just always figure that people really like to look at blogs for the pictures. But maybe thats just me. So, sorry to not write for so long. And sorry to write now without any pictures! Hopefully next time I will have some more documentation of this beautiful state to share with you all.
While I am here, I might as well give a brief update though. Lets see. Right now, thought the temperatures still say that its winter, but the sun is beginning to say otherwise! Its starts to get light around 7:00am, and doesn't get completely dark until around 7:30pm! We've passed all of you lower-48ers up! And its just going to keep going! From what I hear, by the end of March, it will be light until about 10:00pm. Crazy. I am just so happy to have sunlight back in my life. It reminds me of home in Colorado :)
What else? My mom is coming to visit soon, and I am so excited! For the most part we will just be in the Mat Su Valley area where I live, but we are also planning on going skiing at
Alyeska, which should be awesome! It will only be the second time I have skied somewhere other than Colorado. (The first was at Bränas in Sweden), and I have heard good things, so I am getting pretty excited about it!
Other than that, not too much is new! Work is going well, though I got fairly sick last weekend at our rcollege-aged retreat and have had to miss some work this week. But things are flowing along like they should, and preparations for summer camp are already beginning! Time sure is flying!
Ok, well, hopefully, like I said, next time I write I will have some pictures to share. But for now, you'll just have to used your imagination! Enjoy! :D
Lauren
