Snow!….?
Well, there is snow, but not in our little Colorado mountain valley. In fact, it has been unseasonably warm here…it was 63 degrees on December 30th!
No, the snow has been in the south. Yes, even Florida has had cold weather and even a snowstorm.
All across the southern United States there has been very cold temperatures, ice and even snow. What a strange winter season so far.

Professor Lars Hennessey
Please meet Professor Lars Hennessey. He is a Beta fish and my new office pet. It is nice to have someone to talk right on the desk everyday.

My New Favorite Sandwich
A few months ago my sister told me about a sandwich they had at one of the coffee places in town. I have driven by that place many times, but never had gone in before. This is mostly because I’m usually not on that side of town until afternoon and that seems too late for coffee to me.
Anyway, one day my sister told me about this delicious sandwich called the “Little Hippy” and that I should try it and so I did. Wow, is it good, I have gone back several times just for this sandwich, I think they might be getting to the point where they know what I’m going to order when I walk in.
It is a panini with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, cream cheese, onion, sunflower seeds, avocado and your choice of swiss, provolone or American cheese. You can have it on a bagel or flatbread. I have had both, but like the bagel best.
Where can you get this sandwich for yourself? It is at a cute little coffee shop called Blessed Brews. If you are in town, stop by.

Office moving…again
A lot of changes have been going on around the ol’ graduate school lately. First off, back in January, I got a new boss. She seems really nice, thankfully. And then, we just hired someone to work with me. She seems nice too. I was really praying for good people to work with when I heard this all was going to happen.
With all of these new people, we need a space where we can work together. So, I am moving across campus. I am sad because I really like the people in the office I am in and the desk in the new office is pretty small. I’ve heard it might be a year and we would move again to a more permanent place. We’ll see what happens. It has all been pretty overwhelming.

Spring is here
Springtime is arriving in our little valley. We have had some very nice warm day. Of course most of those days are spent in my office. We have also had a lot of wind. That is just what happens in the spring here…WIND.
There are green buds starting to appear on the trees. It seems pretty early to me. We did get a lot of warm weather very early on this year. It is always nice to see spring come again.

My Grandma
Today I lost my best friend, my grandma. She has been very sick with pneumonia since at least December and we tried everything we could think of to help her feel better. She had to go into the hospital twice.

Grandma was the one that always knew how to have fun. She had way more energy than I ever had. I am very blessed to have her because she was the best grandma anybody could have and I will miss her very much.
