Surprise!!

Well....I'm still in Utah! Surprise! I have a doctors apt. again tomorrow morning, and I don't really know what lies ahead....so I'll let you know.

Anyway...I have been feeling better lately, probably because the meds kicked in for my lung infection and that has allowed me less pain and more sleep. I can finally sleep lying down, and that has done a world of good. I felt really good, so I decided to get out for a little drive! It's not much...but at least I didn't sit inside. Plus, I have always loved a good rainy day :). I took the dog, and we went on a little adventure.
(I know, I know....I went a little crazy on the selfies! I liked my red coat
and purple boot combo.  :) NO shame)
(I tried to take one with the dog...he wasn't very interested)

I just wanted to get out of the house really....do something that I don't usually do. I would have read a book, but I have two unfinished ones that are still in my apt. at Rexburg, and the one I ordered off of Amazon hasn't arrived yet...(more on that one later!)
(I took this up on the mountain looking down...It would have been a cooler
picture if I would have gotten out of the car...too rainy)

I love driving through Farmington to look at all of the unique houses up on the mountain. I have always loved it. My family and I used to take Sunday drives up through all the neighborhoods. The houses there have...character. I like character. They all look like houses you would see in a book, or something. They are fun colors, but not in a cheesy sort of way. I have always dreamed of living in Farmington when I am married...or Oregon. Maybe both.

(My attempt to take pictures while driving...downhill...in the rain. I also saw a cop,
so I panicked!)
I have grown to love going on drives, because I can just turn on some good music, cruize, and think. It's a pretty good way to get in some good reflection.

Here are some of my current cruisin' playlist tunes (especially good for a rainy day):

Fare Thee Well (Dink’s Song) - Oscar Isaac & Marcus Mumford
Rambling Man – Laura Marling
The Girl – City and Colour
No Matter Where You Are – Us
Now Is the Start – A Fine Frenzy
Blood – The Middle East
