Happy 2009, and by the way, it's FREEZING in Iowa, and I'm sick!

Hello all!

Happy 2009! I know all the economists in the media say that it's going to be a hard year, but hopefully the year will bring you joy and happiness regardless!

This will be a relatively short post seeing how I'm getting dreadfully sick. Since I wrote last week, I have completed (almost) 2 of the books on my list that I had planned to read this winter. Eragon was very interesting... I now have to read Eldest to find out what comes next. And I am one chapter away from finishing The Hidden Messages in Water. It's a very interesting book, I recommend everyone read it. We are all composed of about 70% water, and it show the effects of words on water, and thus, how we would respond to certain words (since we are 70% water). It is a means on how to live one's life. And it has a lot of pretty pictures, which makes it all the more interesting. 

I'm currently in northeast Iowa, and we've just had a terrible winter ice storm. It's also very cold, which makes me nervous since it's only JANUARY. I'm scared for FEBRUARY and early MARCH, when the winters are MOST AWFUL. But come hell and highwater, somehow I still manage to love Iowa despite it's terrible winters. 

This winter is causing me to get a little cold though. Time to down the Vitamin C. 

And on that note, it is way past a sick girl's bedtime. Until next time, good night!
