Outside my window... It's cloudy and 30 degrees. This morning it was in the teens. Virginia is very fickle, though. Tomorrow it should be in the mid 50s.
I am thinking... I cannot wait to see all the many ways that God will bless us this year.
I am thankful for... the $200 book for Gabriel's Astronomy class that he was able to buy for $20! God is good!!!
From the learning rooms...Holly and I finally got back on schedule today! I am most excited about the unit study we are doing on Where the Red Fern Grows. It's been a while since I've read that book!
From the kitchen... Tonight I'm making some chicken with a homemade sauce and rice. We'll probably have something green too. I'm not sure about the rest of the week. Taking life one day at a time!
I am wearing... Red sweats, a tee- shirt and my warm and comfy State Police sweatshirt.
I am creating... greeting cards to send to friends and family. I have a lot of scrapbooking supplies so I thought Holly and I would have fun making cards instead of buying them. Trying to save every dime we can these days!
I am going... nowhere today. I love days when I can stay at home.
I am reading... Going Rogue: An American Life by Sarah Palin. I don't get around to it often enough. Just pulled it out and took it to band last Wednesday.
I am praying... for God to bless John with more overtime hours.
I am hoping... for spring!
I am hearing... Silence! Holly is cleaning her room and John is working late.
Around the house... things are getting back to normal - our new normal - now that Gabriel and Hannah have returned to college. John has turned Gabriel's room into his office. That's a huge improvement over last semester when we used his room for clutter and storage!
One of my favorite things... Bath and Body Works hand soap. I don't splurge on it very often but I did buy some with Christmas money. Brightens up winter time, don't you think?
A few plans for the rest of the week: Holly has band on Wednesday and a teen activity on Friday. Other than that, I'm planning on staying home and staying warm!
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

I love days when I can stay home, too. I'm pretty much a "home-body." :) That is wonderful that your son was able to get his astronomy book for only $20. God is good. He always meets our needs. Have a great weekend! Karen
