FOR TODAY March 1, 2015

Outside my window… dark. It’s technically past midnight and officially March 2nd but I’m doing this for March 1st.

I am thinking… about some discussions I’ve been having with people on Facebook.

I am thankful… for so many things today but mostly that I have a church that supports me and who loves me because I am “Jen”, not because I’m “Jen the pastor’s wife”.

In the kitchen… nothing at the moment as we’re all in bed. I’ll be baking more cookies this week for the Lenten soup supper on Wednesday.

I am wearing… my Run for the Little Flowers 5K shirt and black sweats.

I am praying for… a full-time call for Jon, discernment for me, various special intentions,
and how to balance out our finances.

I am going… to hopefully get to sleep soon.

I am wondering… what this week will hold for me.

I am reading… The Hen of the Baskervilles by Donna Andrews.

I am hoping… to finish my amigurumi project this week and get it mailed off to the person for whom it is a gift.

I am looking forward to… Wednesday night when we have midweek Lenten stuff.

I am hearing… The Divine Liturgy of the Orthodox church of Antioch. It’s relaxing to listen to it.

Around the house… silence. dead quiet. It’s lovely.

A favorite quote for today… “Before I became a Christian I do not think I fully realized that one’s life, after conversion, would inevitably consist in doing most of the same things one had been doing before, one hopes, in a new spirit, but still the same things.” — C.S. Lewis

One of my favorite things… my in-laws’ cat Felicity who is a tiny little fluffball.

A few plans for the rest of the week: work on taxes, church stuff on Wednesday, Daniel’s IEP on Thursday, BYOF day at IKEA on Saturday, and whatever else comes up.

A peek into my day… So, I was confirmed today that the Episcopal church that I’m attending at the moment…
