A Change in the Weather

I forget how much the seasons affect me until it is spring time. The sun wakes me up at 6:00 in the morning and keeps me up late at night. I am tired and yet I have more energy and hope than ever. I am willing to change my routines and start planning. So last week, as part of my routine change, I didn't clean my house and I didn't update my blog. Instead I crafted and created something with my hands. And this weekend, I actually got out of Trout for an evening. I was dreading a grocery run because it would be to Slave and back without any human interaction since I don't know anyone in Slave at all. And I couldn't handle the lonliness. So a fellow teacher rescued me. She was going home to Peace River so I met up with her and other teachers there. We went out for supper and went to watch Spiderman 3 at the theater. And guffawed when Spidey lept in front of the American flag. That was over the top cheese. I stayed the night at Friesen's house and then this morning we went to church together. It was so nice to be out with people I know and doing something different. A change of routine is good for the soul.

As for planning, I have spent hours looking up flights to Turkey. I sure hope that it works out.

Spidey 3 - I really wanted to like it. Here are some of my favourite lines: "Wow." "Wicked." delivered by two kids with no acting skills who are obviously the children of a producer (ie: someone who extended a lot of $$ to the film). "I guess one man really can change the world.......... 'nuff said." (Stan Lee in a horrible cameo). Jr. Goblin "We're friends." Spiderman: "Best friends." And what was with bad Peter doing the cheesy 70's walk? and the dance? And did fluffing his hair over his forehead really make him dangerous?!
