What I’m doing?
~enjoying a chill Sunday afternoon
~planning my posts for the week
~about to go shopping with some teenagers. The kids at the non profit that my husband works for earn behavior bucks and get to ‘shop’ at a store that I am in charge of setting up. The store needs restocked, so we will shop until we drop today. Shopping at a store to set up and stock a store. Get it…got it? Good.
What I did today?
Went to church.
Went to Walmart
Made quiche for lunch
Made Peppermint Chocolate Loaf for an event with my husbands work.

A sink full of dishes.
What I’m listening to?

What I’m tasting?
Coffee
What I’m smelling?
Burned Peppermint Chocolate Loaf. Blech.
What I’m thinking?
that there is no one like my God. I was reminded again this morning in church just how big His love and grace is. There is NOTHING, nothing, one can do that His love would not cover.
What makes me laugh?
How often I have had to tell myself this week, “Life is NOT an emergency. Take a deep breath. One thing at a time.” I’m learning. {SMH with a chuckle}
What I’m planning?
5 hooks in my bathroom to hold 5 towels. One for each family member. If their towel is not on the hook, they will have to drip dry. This Mama’s not joking. I have HAD IT with washing a billion towels each week! Can I get an amen?
What I hope for?
A week of thankfulness. A thankful perspective.
What I’m excited about?
Personal growth. Growth as a family.
What I dread?
Painting my kitchen.
What has surprised me?
how fast this week went. How much better I feel this Sunday compared to last Sunday. Last Sunday my ears were so plugged (Influenza left me with an ear infection) that I had to keep asking Todd if I was singing too loud in church. He just smiled at me mischievously and would not tell me. Isn’t that lovely?
What I’m thankful for?
a warm home full of people I love, & recorded television
What melted me?
my husband choosing to talk gently & calmly to me when I knew he was frustrated and really could have given me an earful. Grace.
What I’m wearing?
A stripy white and grey shirt that matches my new shower curtain. I like grey. I like stripes.
What I wish was different?
The darn burned Peppermint Chocolate Loaf.
The darn burned Peppermint Chocolate Loaf.
What I’m hungry for?
I’ll give you one guess…yep…Peppermint Chocolate Loaf.
I’ll give you one guess…yep…Peppermint Chocolate Loaf.
