Outside my window...
*A beautiful evening, post-thunderstorm. Thank you, Lord, for the rain!
I am thinking...
*That it's exciting to have company coming soon! Looks like we'll be grilling out for July 4th.
I am thankful for...
*The week after VBS :). Vacation Bible School is incredibly worthwhile...but incredibly exhausting, too!
From the learning rooms...
*Reviewing some math concepts with my older kids, using the Life of Fred series--who knew math could be funny!?!
From the kitchen...
*Made blackened tilapia tonight--blackened with spices, not burned :). Also, finished off my homemade granola today--good stuff!
I am wearing...
*Shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, no shoes
I am creating...
*A menu plan & a house-keeping schedule (now if I could just be diligent in following these plans)
I am going...
*To paint my toenails--not wearing shoes makes me realize my feet need a little "renovation"!
I am reading...
*Managers of Their Chores (about organizing household chores)
*Harvard Yard (historic fiction)
I am watching...
*an episode of Hart to Hart on dvd as I clean the kitchen :). Love that show!
I am hoping...
*That my son N had a good time at his friend's house this evening. It is a big step for him to go over to someone's house for the first time (I know, he's 13, but it's still a big step for HIM).
I am hearing...
*Blue's Clues
*Hart to Hart
Around the house...
*Trying to dig out after VBS! Laundry and housekeeping got short shrift last week
One of my favorite things...
*My red Dell laptop computer, nicknamed "Rosie"
A few plans for the rest of the week:
*church tomorrow night
*groceries
*more laundry
*trying out some new recipes
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
This is our group arriving at the Hotel Amar in Agra, India--greeted with flowers! We look exhausted because we ARE! This was taken back in November, 2009.
