For Today… March 8, 2010
Outside my window… MORE mud and puddles everywhere. Every time things start to dry up another storm blows in.
I am thinking… an early bedtime would be wise. The one area of my life I have an extreme lack of discipline.
From the learning rooms… Had fun today making H2O molecules with Miss A out of grapes. We’ve been moving through our schoolwork at a more relaxed pace this year…taking time to enjoy learning, instead of just getting it done. I was feeling real great about it until I calculated today and realized we won’t be done for the year until the end of June! Oh well. When we take too long of a break the kids get bored.
I’m thankful for… my hair. I know it’s silly. I hate my hair most of the time. It never works how I want it to. But I saw an older lady at the store the other day who had extremely thinning hair, like I could see more scalp than hair. And I realized I would be really sad if that were happening to me. And that I should be thankful for my full head of hair even if it doesn’t look quite how I want it to.
From the kitchen… I don’t know if there’s a Trader Joe’s where you live. But if there is you should go there. And buy “Trader Jose’s Salsa Autentica”. I’m really picky about salsa, and this stuff is SO good. You need to get some.
I am wearing…
I am reading… Stepping Heavenward by Elisabeth Prentiss. It’s been so long since I’ve read a fictional book (other than children’s books) and just enjoyed it. I’m loving this one.
I am creating… a birthday crown for Princess Darling’s 1st birthday! Can’t believe it’s already been a year!
I am hearing… Hombre discussing website domains on the phone with the hosting company he uses. Pretty exciting.
Around the house… caught up on housework. Now if I can just get the week’s worth of clean laundry put away we’ll be doing great. I need to get ahead because as soon as the mud dries out I must move my attention outside. All this rain has the weeds sprouting up in a nice thick carpet.
A few plans for the rest of the week… Just an average week. Nothing major. Although I thought the same thing last week, and then we ended up going to our first hockey game! It was so much fun. Miss A danced and made her way onto the jumbo-tron, and we were thoroughly entertained by all the die hard fans sitting around us.
So who knows what fun things could be awaiting us!
