FOR TODAY

Outside my window... it is partly cloudy and cool this morning. We had rain last night that preceded a cold front. Our high today is supposed to be 50 which is still warmer than usual.

I am thinking... about what a good day I had yesterday. Feeling better is wonderful!

I am thankful for... some good advice I got last week from some friends. I'm trying a new approach on housekeeping for this week. Yesterday was great. I hope today goes as well : )

From the learning rooms... lots of make up work for ds after he was sick all last week. A history project is due the end of the week and so is a research paper in English. Whew!

From the kitchen... last night was grilled tilapia, baked potatoes and green beans. Tonight is Mexican Casserole and tossed salad.

I am wearing... my lilac and black gown with my red flannel robe. I keep telling you what a fashionista I am! LOL!

I am creating... still working on several crochet projects, but did some beading last week as well. I'm thinking about sewing again soon.

I am going... to keep working on a new housekeeping routine. I'm using one a friend suggested from donnayoung.org. I'm personalizing it which is going to take a little time, but so far I like it.

I am reading... The Horse and His Boy. I've read it before of course, but dh is re-reading the series and wanted me to re-read this one. I'm still not sure why, but it is a really good read!

I am hoping... that the insomnia I've suffered of late is just a temporary aberration, and not going to turn into an ongoing problem.

I am hearing... quiet.

Around the house... progress continues on the path to neaterness (I know it's not a word, but that's what I'm shooting for!).

One of my favorite things... is having a day where everything seems to come together. Yesterday was one of those days, so I'm working on savoring the memory of it while working toward making today a good one.

A few plans for the rest of the week... back to workouts with the personal trainer after the flu last week; Bible study; my mom's birthday; and a marriage seminar this weekend at our church.


Here's a picture for thought I'm sharing...

I made a shawl and bracelet for the bunny my bff, Keith, brought to me!

This is a special request prayer strand I made for my bff, Linda.
