FOR TODAY January 17,2011

Outside my window… sunny and warm. It doesn’t seem real for January, especially as I spent 9 Januaries outside of California in much colder climates.

I am thinking… about all the stuff that needs to get done/arranged in the next few weeks. I function internally and my mind is constantly working.

I am thankful for… the pregnancies of my college and online friends going well. Two are due pretty soon and one is due in 4 months. Also thankful that Daniel’s godparents got good news from the ultrasound of their baby on Friday.

From the kitchen… nothing fancy. I think a TJ’s run might be in order.

I am wearing… jeans, a black polo shirt, and running shoes.

I am creating… a podcast outline.

I am going… nowhere outside my normal 15-mile radius as far as I know.

I am reading… “The Alpine Quilt” by Mary Daheim.

I am hoping… things proceed in an orderly and timely fashion with the BIG thing in my life.

I am hearing… “As the Bridegroom to His Chosen” by John Rutter. (A good YouTube video with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing it is available here.)

Around the house… I’m hoping to get some sweeping/mopping done tonight.

One of my favorite things… Daniel’s smile and laughter when we’re clapping out nursery rhymes.

A few plans for the rest of the week: OT/PT for Daniel

Here is picture for thought I am sharing… A quilt that was made by Jewel Benjamin, a wonderful friend and sister in Christ of mine from Montana. I think of her every time I see the quilt.
