FOR TODAY August 9, 2015
Outside my window… hot. Weather.Com says it’s 86F outside and I’ll trust them on that one. I’m also writing this before dark which is unusual for me; but I’m with my parents for 10 days and am not having to restrict blogging to times when Daniel is asleep.
I am thinking… about some things being discussed in some of the Facebook groups with whom I hang.
I am thankful… to be able to find stations for my listening pleasure on my 8-hour drive north yesterday. I normally listen to my CD collection or books on CD but the CD player in my car is refusing to cooperate. It was a melange of NPR, Air1, KLOVE, and Family Radio (which had some fabulous instrumental and acapella music).
In the kitchen… not sure what we’re having tonight but the Hawaiian pizza from Round Table was fabulous last night.
I am wearing… black “perfect tee” from Old Navy and capris from Kohl’s. My church attire was a top and pants from Kohl’s and Maude shoes from Naturalizer.
I am going… to Target for school clothes for Daniel in the next couple days.
I am wondering… about some things that are due to happen in the next few months.
I am reading… The Alpine Zen by Mary Daheim. I’ll be finishing my re-read and then re-reading The Alpine Yeoman which is the previous book in the series.
I am hoping… for a good visit with my parents and that my doctor can figure out what the Hades is going on with my stomach.
I am looking forward to… Daniel going back to school. Kiddo has been B-O-R-E-D for the last few weeks.
I am hearing… Rend Collective on YouTube singing “My Lighthouse”:
A Daniel story for today… we’ve been referring to him as “Toothless” since he lost the bottom tooth on Wednesday.
A favorite quote for today… “Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and go well with ketchup.”
One of my favorite things… pesto bagel with garlic schmear from The Posh Bagel.
A few plans for the rest of the week: park dates, back-to-school shopping, and lots of walking.
A peek into my day… more Rend Collective. 🙂 This one is a song I’ve shared before and it’s called “Build Your Kingdom Here”. I’m seriously amused by bluegrass style instruments, Salvation Army band members, and fireeaters sharing the same space.
