Sunday Salon

 
 
Time: 10:21 am (whoops I know, should at church)
 
Scene: The kitchen table.  It is rainy and a little cooler today, but still humid.  I wouldn't mind a good thunder storm sometime today.
 
Today's Plan:  The last day of the Community Theater's musical, The Sound of Music.  To say it hasn't been amazing every evening and that I am not a proud mama would be a lie.  I have LOVED this production!! However, the hubs and daughter are exhausted and are ready for some lazy days of  summer finally :) This cast worked hard and put their all in it and it shows.
 
Listening to:  Doug and little Lucy banter back and forth.  Everyone else is quiet, kind of watching television and kind of dozing.  Sunday is a day to rest, correct?
 
Drinking: My 3rd (gasp) cup of Kahlua coffee with Bailey's Irish Creme Creamer (nonalcoholic).  I might be shaking here in a few minutes :) But I have been up for awhile, so I have at least spaced them out. 
 
Giving Thanks for:  Everything. I am feeling very grateful for what I have (and don't) lately.
 
Have a wonderful Sunday and enjoy your family, friends, and home today :) Also, link up with my friend My Cup Runneth Over

  2. I'm late because we ran out of the house around 9 and hit the river! (whoops, should be in church) We needed a little break.
    How cool that your hubby and daughter are acting in a play together. What wonderful memories!
    Hope you had a nice day and that your week is a blessed one!

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!! 

Your Favorite Christmas Tradition

  We have developed many traditions for our family over the years.  We always open one present on Christmas Eve, we have Grinch Punch on Christmas Eve, we lay out cookies and a beer for Santa (this has been since my childhood), sprinkle oatmeal in the yard for the reindeer, have sparkling grape juice and chocolate eclairs on Christmas morning, and we go see a movie as a family on Christmas afternoon at the movie theater.   Leading up to Christmas we have chocolate advent calendars, have fun with R.J. our Elf on the Shelf, go to the surrounding towns that have light displays on a  snowy evening, attend  the Santa breakfast in town, and enjoy the school's Christmas program.   We have many family dinners and get togethers to attend to wish everyone a wonderful holiday and spend quality time with the ones we love.    My favorite tradition?  Probably leaving cookies and beer for Santa.  I don't know how it started but...
