FOR TODAY February 8, 2010

Outside my window…light snow falling. It had been the powdered sugar kind, but now it’s big flakes. A big storm is expected tonight and tomorrow. 10-14″. Let’s hope so!

I am thinking…about how fast I have to type to get this done before I have to leave!

I am thankful for…a wonderful weekend. More about that in a later post.

From the learning rooms…Alyssa has an art class this morning. Not sure when we’ll fit in some school. It looks like it’s going to be one of those weeks.

From the kitchen…shrimp spaghetti. It’s quick and easy, only a few ingredients, but really good.

I am creating…lots of scrapbook pages. Getting ready for an all-day crop party in March.

I am wearing…jeans, a white turtleneck, a purple sweater, my slippers, but no afghan today.

I am reading…Beneath a Harvest Sky by Tracie Peterson. I’m trying to learn how to savor books, a chapter a night. We’ll see how long that will last!

I am hoping…that the roads stay clear today but that we can’t go anywhere tomorrow.

I am praying…for all my dear friends and the various trials they have in their lives.

I am going…to take Alyssa to art class in just a few minutes.

Around the house…quite messy because I wasn’t home most of the weekend. If I don’t go anywhere tomorrow, I’ll have to tackle it.

I am hearing…the furnace, my computer humming.

One of my favorite things…a pretty snow. It looks so beautiful falling and so nice on the ground.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Jonalyn has an appointment at the CP clinic today for her turned-in feet, work, the Olympics start on Friday!!! (big party planned with Alyssa for the opening ceremonies.)

Here is picture thought I am sharing: The art museum in Milwaukee. We took this picture on our trip there on New Year’s Eve. It’s so beautiful. It’s supposed to look like a sailing ship, perfect because it’s right on the lake shore.

To see other daybooks go to the the Simple Woman. Enjoy!
