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!

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...
