A slice of life right now...
- Outside my window... it's dark and quiet. The chickens have gone to bed and the dogs are calming down.
- I am thinking... of how much I loved last night's LOST. SO MANY ANSWERS!
- I am thankful for... my thoughtful husband who brought dinner home tonight from Apollo's. And he rocked Thomas to sleep so I could get some work done. And he took my car in today for the 30,000 mile service + got the brakes shaved down thanks to the Toyota Camry recall and brought it home with a full tank of gas. And I didn't have to sit in the waiting room with an antsy little 14 month old. BLISS. Husband of the year, right there.
- From the kitchen... made an awesome Mediterranean Quinoa Salad for tomorrow. It's in the fridge and soaking up all the lemony olive oil goodness.
- I am wearing... Nautica sweats and a tank top from Old Navy. And squishy lime green slippers.
- I am going... to continue to make lots of progress on my office tonight. Thomas supervised today, and I cleaned out half my cubbies and started to see light at the end of the tunnel.
- I am creating... an ordered home. Listening to The E-Myth Revisited about small businesses while doing so. I absolutely love the Timberland Regional Library -- I was able to download it immediately from their system and listen to it by a virtual checkout. For free!
- I am hoping... for a great Blarney Blast this Saturday, and a beautiful 'franciscan style' baby blessing & shower on Sunday.
- I am hearing... silence. And it's golden.
- Around the house... lots of boxes packed up from a successful week of 'selling stuff that I needed to get rid of on eBay.' Love how it feels to pack stuff up to send it off to its new happy home.
- One of my favorite things... having a place for everything, and putting things in their place. I am a 'visual doer' - so I've always kept projects out as I've worked on them. It's been a bit of a painful transition to putting things away every time, but it's been fantastic for my peace of mind. :)
- A few plans for the rest of the week: up to Mom and Dad's tomorrow for dinner, Stations of the Cross on Friday w/the soup supper following, the Blarney Blast, the blessing, and a few Finian Road projects.
- Here is picture for thought I am sharing... I absolutely love when Thomas shows his intense little gaze. I can't stop looking at it.
