Monday DayLook – February 22, 2010

007 (3) For Today: February 22, 2010

Looking out from my back porch... cat paw prints in the snow outside the window.  A kitty from Grandma Green Acres’ home must have followed Angelina to our home.

I am thankful for... friends who are willing to travel 1.5 hours – one way - with four kids to visit our home!

I am reading… my plan is to read at least a page from ‘Introduction to the Devout Life’ each day.

I am hoping... to cross off all the items on my weekly To-Do list.

From the sewing/craft room (aka. laundry room … you’ll have to check out the Craft Basket Wednesday posts here and here.

From the school room... sticking to schedule and getting work done.

From the kitchen... during her last visit, my mom suggested I could use a salad spinner.  ‘No!’ I protested, ‘I don’t need to store another thing.’  But, I now own a salad spinner (my purchase) … my sincerest apologies, Mom.  You still do know what your daughter needs!

State of the house… yahoo!  My vacuum part arrived and I very happily vacuumed every inch of carpet.

A successful moment… being caught up on personal finances, if only for a day!

A few plans for the rest of the week…
Monday: Dash has a morning orthodontist appt and will then visit friends until his Dad’s meeting is over.


Tuesday-Thursday:  Eric is gone for meetings.  This kids and I will carry on as usual! 

Friday/Saturday/Sunday:   Dash & Angelina have another crop judging contest on Saturday.  We plan to attend Mass at the Cathedral and a Benefit Dinner for a friend on Sunday afternoon.

A picture memory...

  1. Thanks for such a wonderful time, Suzie!! Time always goes WAY too fast.
    We didn't even mind the risk to life and van on the way home with, not kidding, over 100+ gorgeous deer within 5 miles of your home!The kids were spellbound!
    And, I must tell you that with fear and trepidation, I scrolled down the pics in the HOPES that there were NO pics of me! Thank you!! We'll get a pic of two next time to share. MInus spit up, etc!
    And ladies, her hubby came home with the most BEAUTIFUL flowers on Friday afternoon. Yep. He's that wonderful. Even cleaned up after a little 3 yr old "accident" w/o a grumble. Must be making up for being gone on Valentine's day?? :)

  2. Loved your recent posts, esp. part two of the craft! Very cool! I think my boys are several years away from that kind of proficiency in all those crafty areas, but when Leo and Max are a bit older, I could see them mentoring the younger ones, while I don't have to completely tear my hair out! Haha! Fun pictures of friends - what a blessing!
