Hello Negative Weather

So I am from the south... Yes I have lived in PA, South Fla and Oklahoma but I claim the south the be home. So moving to Minnesota was not only a culture shock but a weather shock! Sometimes the highs are 2 degrees. These are HIGHs people! I have seen negative 15... oh I am sorry 15 below (as the locals would say it). Why would anyone ever choose to live here? But no worries, Santa was good to me this year giving me scarfs, hats and down-feather jackets!
The only issue is I am so afraid my nose might freeze off one of these days. This is a tough weather to get use to. Even though I have been here a little over a month, I am truly falling in love with the city. The people are kind, even though they laugh when I say "yall", there are plenty of activities, the summers I heard are stunning and I lucked out on finding a pretty amazing apt. Not only am I living downtown (first time in my life) but I am walking distance to the mall, target stadium, more resturants than I will ever try and theaters... lots and lots of theaters!! And the view isn't too bad either.

I honestly have no idea how i became so bless but the Lord continues to provide for me! Not only is he blowing my dreams out of the water but he is giving me things I never thought I deserved. It has been 6 months of a roller coaster with ups and very low downs. I have felt love and I have felt heart ache. But the Lord is faithful and never leaves us alone.

New Year Quote (What I want to live my year by) "I am not where I need to be but thank God I am not where I used to be. I am okay and I am on my way!"

Hope everyone has a blessed year and seeks the Lord in all they do!
