oh hello.

it feels like it's been awhile, dear friends. i have been thinking a LOT about blogging, yet have not gotten around to it. laziness at it's best- isn't there some saying about best laid intentions or plans? insert that here, please.

i like to blog about my experiences, what i'm learning in life, and little funny stories God speaks to me through my everyday life. lately, my experience and what i am learning is: in the mornings these days, it is dark. like, at 6:00am, when i'm usually up and getting ready, i'm really still in bed, feeling like it's 5:00am. and i think the world agrees with me, cause from what i know, this weekend is daylight savings, which means we fall back an hour (praise praise praise) and now at 6:00am, it will be what it looks like at 7:00am. which means a little more sun in the morning, to get me moving. i know that daylight savings is a weird, archaic thing from the farming/agricultural days, and places like arizona just don't do it anymore. but to those that keep it around here in denver, i thank you.

the dark makes me so unfunctional. i notice this in winter too, because as it gets darker earlier at night, i hibernate and feel like the world is done. then i look at the clock and realize that it's like 6:00pm, and there is no excuse for me climbing into bed that early.

to celebrate the fact that i got to work today before the sun was fully risen, i left a note for a coworker who was, oddly enough, at work before me. i was surprised to see the light in her office shining out her doorway as i climbed the dark stairwell, and i thought, 'if i, who am normally here at this time, am baffled by the darkness, i cannot imagine how hard a dark, early morning at the office is for this typical late-comer! she needs some motivation!'

hopefully these rainbow-brite post-its brite-ened her day!
