December Currently

 
 A link up with Farley for the monthly currently....
 
Listening to my two junior high daughters discuss people's Facebook statuses.  I love how dramatic junior high girls can be and how life altering they think these things are....whew.
 
Loving that my 3rd daughter actually laughed at a sarcastic joke I made.  She usually rolls her eyes at me or it goes completely over her head.  There is hope yet :)
 
Thinking that it is already past my bedtime and I am going to regret staying up too late.  However, I am for once not tired at all.  Hmmmm.
 
Wanting to go to a hockey game.  It has been years and it is one sport I truly love.  I used to love Black Hawk games and nothing excites me more than a good fight.  I know....crazy.
 
Needing to get a pedicure.   Well, I could paint my toes myself but I like the full treatment and the leg massage...yep.  I am going with Need.
 
A Favorite Tradition is to have sparkling grape juice and chocolate eclairs (from the freezer section of the grocery store) for Christmas morning.  I don't know how this started but in this house, it would not be Christmas without them.

    I found you on Farley's blog! You should definitely record today's date because managing to make a middle-schooler laugh is a pretty big accomplishment! Happy Sunday!

    I have never been to a professional hockey game, but have enjoyed Illini hockey games in the past. I was just telling Brian the other day that I want to take the kids to a game this winter. Those college boys can have some good fights sometimes. I typically HATE violence, but do enjoy watching hockey brawls and the occasional UFC fight. :)

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 ...
