Fire on Green Street!

3/28/2011

I keep forgetting to blog about this, I thought I would just post a link quickly.

There was a fire on Green Street in campus town. (About 12-14 blocks East of us). Green Street runs all the way through town and through campus (It is the street that we live on AND the street that the union is on.) The fire was less than a block away from the union. Thankfully it happened over spring break so less students were around, and no one was injured! They still don't know the cause of it... pretty crazy!

Here's a newspaper article about it.

Random thoughts...

Usually I only blog when I have something worthwhile to say... today I just have random thoughts... but isn't that what a blog is for anyway? Don't say I didn't warn you. :)

I got something in the mail from Netflix today telling me I have a free trial. In it it says "You'll be amazed at how much movie enjoyment Netflix can provide for as low as $7.99 a month.  I don't think they know me very well. Anyone who knows me well knows that movies very rarely bring me much enjoyment at all. And watching multiple movies each month? Oh boy!

How come people don't shovel in Illinois?? Many people don't like getting snow here. And as much as I like snow, I can't blame them. When no one shovels, even two inches of snow is a total hassle because no one shovels the sidewalk. People here have never heard of having an ordinance where you HAVE to shovel your sidewalk. Maybe if people learned how to shovel (not to mention if the city learned how to plow and SALT, we all could actually ENJOY the snow we get.... MAYBE! :)

How early is too early to put up a crib? I have been trying to hold on baby things as much as possible, but I'm ready to get started! We finally got our office cleaned out (YEAH!!) Noah's desk fits upstairs which is really great. But I am ready to put up a crib any day now. I think it will freak out Noah just a bit, but I think we're ready :)

What is it about having things written on the calendar that makes me feel better about life? We had a staff meeting today and our calendar went from relatively empty to totally full. It's amazing how much you have to pack into one semester in campus ministry. It is a bit overwhelming, but for me just having it written down is a huge relief!

I'm feeling really good overall (and am very thankful for that). Other than some minor back pain and going to the bathroom a lot, I'm pretty much feeling normal. Except for one thing... I can't stomach the thought of eating chicken. I don't know what it is, but I can't get myself to buy it, cook it, and only rarely can I talk myself into eating it (if someone else cooks it for me). This eliminates about half of the meals I normally make and eat, but Noah is a good sport, and we have just been eating lots of beef :)

That's all for now. Thanks for bearing with me!

Any other random thoughts out there?? Do share!
