What's Going On Around Here

For Today...October 24,2015

Outside My Window... A beautiful fall day.  Lots of fallen leaves from our hundred year Maple trees. I am not a fan of raking them up because I think they make the ground so beautiful and I love the crunch and swish sound when you walk through.

I am thinking...how much I love fall.  The coziness of it all.  Pumpkin spice, chili, high school football, Halloween, back to school, Honey Crisp apples, sweaters and boots.

I am thankful...for a great family, good friends, a job I love, and  all the blessings God gives me everyday.

I am wearing...It is 9:30 on Saturday morning, so my pajama pants and a Titans football tee shirt.  Styling.

I am creating...nothing lately but I have been  pintresting like crazy :)

I am going...to the high school's first murder mystery dinner this evening.  Cassie is in it, Madi is serving, and all the proceeds go to support the Spring Musical.  It is going to be fun! 

I am hoping... that this warmer fall holds out for another month :) I am loving the temps.

In my kitchen... I am planning to make our favorite crockpot cheese dip this afternoon.  The kind with velvetta, rotel, and hamburger....yummmm

Happy Saturday!

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...

Winter Items I Can't Live Without

  If you have read my blog, like ever, you know winter and I have kind of a tolerate, bordering on really dislike, each other kind of relationship.  If I could have snow without ice and in 50 degree weather, life would be fine for those 4-5 months.  I don't really dislike snow.  But I can't handle being cold.  At All!!   Ok, Rant over, for today, maybe, until it is brought up again....   What can I not live without?   A Warm Coat...my favorite coat is my black puffer coat.  It was super cheap from Sam's eleven (yes, eleven) years ago.  It is the warmest coat ever and luckily has never went out of style.  The zipper is being a little iffy this year and I just might cry if I talk about it too long.  This coat washes and drys so well and does not look like it has been a winter staple for eleven years.  I also have a North Face that I love but if it is below 20, the black coat wins hands down, every time. ...

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!!
