Looking out from my back porch... a light dusting of snow. We’ve been spared a huge snowfall, though not the bitter cold.
I am thankful for... date nights, lunches with girlfriends while our girls play together, children who finish up their schoolwork on time (ie. on the day it is due!!), toddlers who provide amusement.
I am reading… still reading various books about purgatory. It’s a good month to read such a topic.
I am praying for... the poor souls.
I am hearing... the three youngest boys running around upstairs.
I am wearing… jeans and a long sleeved t-shirt
From the School Room... we are on track and the kids are working hard.
From the Kitchen... a friend introduced me to a new Chex mix concoction. It’s yummy and I only recommend you make it if you want to gain weight!
From the Garden… hubby put away the garden fence this weekend, so all is done for this season/year.
From the FarmYard… the Ameraucana cockerels have been culled. We are down to three roosters: a Buff Orpington, a Barred Rock (my husband must like him, even though he’s naughty!), and a feather-footed bantam.
A successful moment… I made a batch of Christmas goodies… now to hide them deep in the freezer and hope they aren’t discovered and that I don’t forget!!
A few plans for the rest of the week…
Monday: Eric took Dash to Fargo for an ortho appt, and will take him to his FFA meeting tonight.
Tuesday: Dance for Angelina.
Wednesday: Adult religious ed class in the evening for me (this is the 9th of 11 sessions).
Thursday: Thanksgiving in Manvel – hosted by my Grandfather.
Friday/Saturday/Sunday: Dash will serve at a wedding, hope to bake more goodies and watch a few Hallmark movies.
A picture memory...

I think I'm going to have a friend come over and do my baking with the kiddos...she'd love it and I know the kiddos would!! I just can't stand on my feet that long in the kitchen.
