Back from the dead

Yes, I'm still alive. Just took a break, I guess. School got to be a bit overbearing and I had to cut out something.

But an interesting event yesterday got me thinking I ought to get back to blogging. I was driving to my workplace south of Rock Valley. I've been working there for nearly a year, taking the same road most days to and from. I've enjoyed seeing the Christian signs declaring "Jesus is my Master. Who is yours?" or other ones regarding abortion. But there was one sign at an intersection which I've missed until just yesterday. A small sign, yet still significant. It says "Litter control this mile done by Niessink Group Home" My workplace cleans this ditch? Who the heck knew that????? Not only had I missed the sign but nobody had ever mentioned it to me. That's fine, I guess. I still find it intruguing.

There's another sign about a town north of Sioux Center that I always see but I won't blog about it. I'm planning on writing a song about it. Look for that sometime later.

In the meantime, wish me luck in the last few weeks of school. It's definitely crunch time and I'm sick of crunching, as it were. It'll be over soon and sometimes I wish there was more time.
