2014

So 2014 has started out with all sorts of odd arctic weather in the States where it is not supposed to be which is causing a proverbial shitstorm with people, schools, and towns almost everywhere. I say ALMOST... because this was the beautiful sunrise at my house this morning where the temp will be 50 by this afternoon. 

I am leaving this beautiful day to head to Minneapolis where the high today will be 0°. INSANITY!

In other news, I got a super sweet Gumby and Pokey figures in my stocking this Christmas. They are poseable and everything. And with the start of the year, I have an EPIC amount of travel ahead of me.. and therefore ahead of Gumby and Pokey. Yes, they will be going with me everywhere and I will snap photos of them and post them here. In addition to these new traveling companions of mine, this year I will also be making some resolutions. It seems cheesy but I don't think that I've ever actually made any resolutions before so I figured I would try it out. So here are my 2014 resolutions:

1. Be Healthier - I'm not thinking diet or anything just try to be more active and have a healthy body and mind
2. Do a few things that scare you (meaning me) - last year I went tubing down a creek. It was freezing and I was scared to death but I'm so glad I did it.
3. Post at least twice a week on my blog - I can't promise that they will make any sense or be anything worth reading, but It's a commitment that I want to see if I can keep up. Gumby and Pokey promise to remind me.

With all of that, I must leave for a flight to the great white north...with these shady characters...
