Can't Sleep.

It's a curse, really. Being able to sit in bed and feel so exhausted but yet your brain runs around in circles. It probably has something to do with the fact that I've had the most bizarre dreams lately. For some reason, guys keep proposing to me! Not random ones either, very specific people. It's been driving me up the wall. I don't care how many people think that BYU is going to marry me off first semester- it won't happen. I've got so many things to do before that chapter in my life comes along! This book is just getting started!

Anyways. Great news, the rain came today! Not only that, but a haboob came right before it.
Haboob? What's a haboob, you may ask. Well, try imagining this- a larger-than-life, 100 feet tall cloud of swirling amounts of endless brown and black dust, so large and so ferocious that it can travel as fast as 1 foot per second and it can turn the day into night. Vivid enough for you? Well. it sure was for me when I am enjoying a nice sunny day and suddenly I see this ☟




Yeah, I wanted to run for my life too, luckily for me I was at home and not driving.

Right after the terror left, this came along ☟



Thank the heavens for rain in this hot dusty state.

I can only imagine what it would have been like for the pioneers who settled here before us. No air conditioning, no running water, no nothing.

Speaking of which, I just read an awesome book called "These is my Words." by Nancy Turner. Highly recommend it to those who enjoy Historical Fiction (one of my favorite genres.)





I think I can finally feel some sleep coming on. Wish me luck.
