February Currently

Listening to.... this is self explanatory right now since it is below zero and we even had frozen pipes this morning.....find my happy place, find my happy place, find my happy place.

Loving... that February means we are on the down side of winter. and my birthday is this month and we know how I love my birthday.

Thinking...that instead of buying anything, my focus needs to be on donating stuff. I do not do the garage sale thing.

Wanting... another self explanatory thing. I need to stop complaining and just learn to enjoy these 3-4 months of the year.

Needing...to shampoo carpets. I also need to get better at making this a priority.

2 Truths and A Fib.... I do not like to watch any sports on tv. I do like to attend most sporting events in person though unless they are outside in cold weather. I am even a fair weather football fan. Oh well. I do love to go to the movies and Carmex is one of my happy smells/flavors.

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...

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...

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...
