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 well.

 
I am hoping... That Walmart has some bright pink soft yarn for another scarf for Breast Cancer Awareness. 
 
I am learning.. That being at home is sooo good for my soul.  How do I get back to a better balance between work/home/busy life?


 Around the house... Hopefully just stay caught up on dishes and laundry this week.


 In the kitchen.... Only two evenings home this week.  I am planning on store Rotissarie chicken tonight since I am sure I will be tired.  Maybe tacos later this week since we didn't have them over break and I have been really hungry for a Tuna Noodle Casserole.
 
A few plans for this week... Cheer games for Junior High and High School, Girl Scouts, and Lucy starts back at piano....
.
Have a wonderful week.  Pray for stamina for me this week as I get back to normal life :)

    Oh, the next holiday....since I'm not in the school system it will be Memorial day weekend... sounds like forever away! I'm really wanting to me in my "sweats" right about now. Comfy, cozy. I think maybe I took too many days of :)! LOL!
    I remember those weeks when we hardly ever got to sit down as a family to dinner. {{sigh}} I think I miss them! I love Jesus Calling! I like to pick it up and open it to random days... Usually the devotion is so timely!
    Hope you have a good week settling back in! :)

    I too am not overly fond of salads. I find it weird any time I crave them. Your boot cuffs and scarf sound lovely. Hope you found the perfect yarn.

    Stamina is something I need as well. Hard to have to get these kiddos around to all that they do. Have a wonderful week!

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!!
