Outside my window…
Although it was a bright, shiny day today, the weather has definitely turned wintry! We did manage to avoid the rain that was scheduled, but boy-o! I am loving the cold!!!
I am thankful…
For wonderful friends and family!
I am thinking about…
You know, I think I’m just trying to not think… Keeping it plain and simple right now….

Learning all the time…
Yup, learning that it is hard to do “home” parties in today’s economy!

From the kitchen…
That’s the only thing about when I do a “home” party! Today we had a veggie platter with homemade dill dip and double chocolate swirl bread! Yummy, yummy in my tummy!!! Then the hubby made burgers. Oh what a day!

I am creating…
Oh how I wish I really was creating something! At least the house is clean (well, mostly) so now the hubby is very encouraging for me to get in the sewing room to get things done!

I am working on…
Quiet… Can a person work on that? I’m not exactly known for being a “quiet” person, but honestly, when I’m at home, I like things to be on the softer side. Loud is harsh, not very relaxing!

I am going…
To an unexpected doctors appointment tomorrow… Yes, after they teased me with telling me I did not get gestational diabetes, the lab found sugar in my last urine sample, and my blood work came back a bit high, so now I get to go in for the one-hour sugar test and start all over again! I am not going to be a big baby about this! It is what it is… I’m going to buck up and move on with my day.

I am hoping…
For good results for tomorrows test, and that work goes smoothly for me in the morning! Everyone waited until the last minute to check their heaters, so over the weekend we have gotten a rush of emails from unhappy people that should have turned on their heaters at least a week ago!

I am reading…
Not much, blogs, recipes… Might try to sneak in a bit of reading tonight if I can… Bought the Oz series for my NOOK and the first two of the Wicked Series (even if I’ve already read the first books in each series) I want to try to get in a little time each day to get my read on!

I am praying…
For a friend having a hard time right now… Sure, we all have a hard time now-and-then, but hopefully we are able to share our worries with close friends that will keep us in their prayers.

I am hearing…
Football… Argh… I dislike football! It’s the only sport my dad really watched when I was growing up and if they banned/retired/got rid of the whole sport I would not be upset in the least! I just don’t like football…

Around the house…
Bathrooms… Cleaned. Bedrooms… Cleaned. Laundry… Done. Floors… Swept. Sure, the kitchen needs a bit of TLC but for the most part we really pulled together this week and got things in order. Our “new” goal? To do a little each day to make sure the house stays this way!
One of my favorite things…
Hot chocolate on a frosty day! And my cuddly kitties, even when they only cuddle with each other!

A few plans for the rest of the week…
Doctors appointment, work, some sewing, holiday home party for a friend in the Sacramento area, a baptism for a local friends baby girl!

Random thought…
Oh the randomness is escaping me at the moment… It’s that whole “Trying to keep my brain calm and quiet while hearing the husband watching sports” thing… I should be able to come up with more than that, but that’s what it is…

Here are picture thoughts I am sharing with you….
My goofball cats… Then and now… Don’t let their cute faces fool you, they are trouble!
