oh rexburg...


i woke up this morning and got out of bed at about, hmmm lets see, 12:00pm (college life at its finest) and as i looked outside i saw something i haven't seen in a LONG time...my best friend in the whole world, MR. SUN!!! As i got ready for the day, i went outside and noticed that i could FEEL him beating down on my skin (one of my top 3 "natural highs" in life) so i knew it would be a good day for footless tights and a short dress!! As i walked to the mailbox i noticed many of my fellow coho residents out on the grass in their swimsuits sun tanning. I ran inside to check the weather to see what the current temperature is. I knew we had to be in the 80's or so.... but according to weatherchannel.com Rexburg, ID is currently 65 degrees with wind at 11mph. Oh how well my body has acclimatized!! My memory raced back to the good 'ole days in CALIFORNIA (almost there again :) ) and i remembered freezing my behind off and putting on a hoodie and then a jacket as soon as we got below 75....oh how confused and ignorant i was. I guess surviving (barely) -30 degrees I have learned to appreciate 65 degrees and the sun!! So just remember, next time its 65 and sunny, DONT COMPLAIN!!! Thank Heavenly Father for the sun and for its warmth!!
