May Currently

 
This is what is currently going on in my world....
 
Listening...to Lucy play a game on the other laptop and Madi play a game on my phone.  Is this bad parenting?
 
Loving...that I got to hear Katie sing in the musical last night.  I love to hear my girls sing!
 
Thinking...that I wish it could be sunny on a Saturday when I am at home and not at work.  Oh well, soon.
 
Wanting...to do some shopping today. The fun kind, not groceries.
 
Needing...to paint the living room.  A job for tomorrow I think.
 
Summer bucket list...  go to Niagara Falls, make a Pintrest project once a week, learn one song on the piano. 
 
 
Well, sometimes I think we spend too much time on screens, but then it is Saturday morning, and we are all in the same room.....so that counts as family time :)
 
Last night was opening night for the musical.  Katie did an amazing job singing and it brings tears to my eyes when I hear her.  Cassie got to help out this year with the lights.  They both are having a great time.  The cast all did an great job.
 
We have beautiful weather during the week while I am working but our weekends have been rainy.  I am ready to enjoy some time on my deck in my new lounge chair.  Summer is coming, so I will be patient.
 
I am wanting to go shopping for some new things for the almost done living room.  I am thinking about an ottoman to hold my yarns for knitting.  I also would like to find some pretty fabric and make my own pillows for the sofa.  I have come so far!!
 
I need to paint the living room trim before the carpet is installed next week.  I am going to save that job for tomorrow afternoon.
 
Summer bucket list....I actually plan to take the summer easy this year.  I have always wanted to see the Falls, so hopefully when we go out east for the wedding, we can see them.  I would like to make a conscious effort to do more than just pin all the great ideas and recipes I see on Pintrest, so I am making it a weekly goal for the summer.  I have also not touched the piano in years, so I am going to try and relearn some of the basics.  It may be Jesus Loves Me or Wheels on the Bus, but I will be able to play something again by August.

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...

On the Books for January 5, 2015

Today I am joining up with The Simple Woman to give you a peek into my daybook for this week...   Outside my window.... There is a light dusting of snow.  Nothing too intimidating...yet.   I am thinking... That a salad for lunch sounds good today.  I do not usually like salad so this is a little  weird. I am thankful... That I was able to spend quality time with my people the past week and a half.  I am wearing.... Work attire :( no more sweats until whenever I have to leave the house.   I am creating... I just purchased some new yarn over the weekend.  So I am getting ready to start a new scarf and some boot cuffs.   I am going... To Walmart on lunch.  Yep, back to normal this week.  I am wondering.... How many days until the next holiday :)  I am reading.... Just my devotional this week.  I am doing Jesus Calling again this year and maybe the Women of the Bible devotional as ...
