FOR TODAY

Outside my window...lots of cold air!  It had been unseasonably warm, but today it is very cold.

I am thinking...that I can't believe it is 2012 - the year our oldest will graduate.

I am thankful...for a wonderful Christmas filled with lots of family time!

In the kitchen...a crockpot filled with dh's brunswick stew...yummy!

I am wearing...jeans & a Summit t-shirt over a long sleeve shirt.  Seems this is my "uniform" lately.  Mostly because all of my non-ragged t-shirts happen to be from church. :) I would have my Snuggie on, but it has been stolen by my youngest.  :)


I am creating...a shopping list for our upcoming IKEA shopping trip!!

I am going...to watch a movie with dh and the kids tonight - we never got around to watching The Polar Express during December, so we are going to watch it tonight.

I am wondering...if I will keep writing on my blog this year, or let it go like last year...sigh.

I am reading...Made to Crave (while on the treadmill) and Romans & Colossians during my Bible study time.

I am hoping...to get back in the routine of school easily this week and next.

I am looking forward to...the new bedroom being finished so we can continue the foster to adoption process!

I am learning...

Around the house...painting...the new bedroom is nearly finished!

A favorite quote for today..."it shouldn't take that long for 4 string beans & a peanut"  - you would have to be here to understand that one.  I don't dare explain it - just take my word for it, LOTS of laughter.  :)

A few plans for the rest of the week: back to school!  A field trip to the Art Museum later this week. 

A picture...my two girlies being silly yesterday.
