I am so thankful to not be bogged down. Although there are always things to do, sometimes you have the option not do them. That would be today.

Strangely, I have enjoyed my work lately. Not that I ever hated it or anything, but I guess it's nice to go and actually enjoy the time spent there. Good stuff.

So I apologize for being slow. That's just how I am :) Actually I had a most enjoyable weekend at home in Stoughton, which has been the strength to keep me going since mid last week to right now. I was able to see my whole family and my two best friends, Stacy and Jess.

Madison is one crazy place, like a college scene out of a movie, the stereotype of young adults. You know what I like? That I haven't experienced that there at the University of Minnesota. Yes, I have a busy frat next door, but nothing like the blocks upon blocks of little alcohol huts in Madison.

I enjoy this school but I surely miss home.

I also miss being carefree. Yes, you might have to go to work, but you can come home to your room, and read or sleep, or sit on the porch and look over the pond. Now that is what I desire. Peace.

Well, I guess I now have wrote something substantial for the first time.
