FOR TODAY June 11, 2013

Outside my window… dark. Yesterday, it was back down to decent temperatures (70’s) after a high of 110F on Saturday.

I am thinking… that I wish I’d discovered Call the Midwife sooner. I just started watching the first season on Netflix and I’m hoping Season 2 gets added soon!

I am thankful… for the quality time Jon and I have been getting after Daniel goes to bed.

In the kitchen… teryaki chicken on my George Foreman grill.

I am wearing… my Run for Courage shirt and my fleece pajama bottoms.

I am creating… threads for my NaNoWriMo piece in November.

I am going… to hope I can get my father-in-law’s present mailed tomorrow.

I am wondering… how to gently tell someone to cut the apron strings already for their kid. Once they pass a certain age, they need their freedom and they’ve already proved themselves capable of living on their own.

I am reading… Maphead by Ken Jennings (still) and a few other things.

I am hoping… I can get all of Call the Midwife before the season 2 episodes expire on PBS.

I am looking forward to… Respite Night on Saturday night for Daniel.

Around the house… *closes my eyes and sticks my fingers in my ears in the hope that the mess will GO AWAY!!!!*

A favorite quote for today… “Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati” — Red Green

One of my favorite things… Coffee Latté and Cream Bars from Trader Joe’s.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Home with Daniel, mani-pedi on Friday, and Date Night/Respite Night on Saturday.

A peek into my day… My parents’ cat Jethro looking quite irritated at being swaddled so I could clean out a wound and prevent an abscess from developing during one of my visits last month.
