Its May 1st. Its spring not winter. I woke up this morning and theres snow on the ground. What the hay. Theres supposed to be green and flowers not white covering green and trees that look like sticks stuck together. Oh well I'll get over it. Since todays Thursday I only have one class and its 3;15-4:45 so I'm going to work on my art homework. I have to make a papier-mache mask and a mosaic so I'll be busy. Rachel, Stephanie and I decorated our front room last night so now it looks homey and the walls aren't boring white. I've been thinking a lot about whats going to happen in the future. Walking isn't as easy as it used to be: my legs hurt if I stand too long (it doesn't take very long for them to start hurting) and I can't walk as far as I used to be able to. I don't want to be stuck in the wheelchair. In some ways its easier but a lot of ways its easier to walk. Going uphill for example-if I'm walking I tend to get there faster than in the wheelchair but here at school when I'm going uphill in my wheelchair theres usually someone who will push me whether they ask me or not. When I'm in the wheelchair my hands are freed and I can hold things easier. I don't know what to do. Sometimes I wish life wasn't this complicated but I guess it wouldn't be a test if it was easy and we didn't have trials like this. My birthday is next Saturday and I wonder if he'll remember and call. I shouldn't expect it though because he probably won't. I need to get working on my homework so I'll keep you updated on my life here where its still winter in May-Rexburg.
