FOR TODAY October 29, 2012

Outside my window… sunny. It was nice today. A storm is supposed to move in on Halloween night and Thursday morning so I’ll have a nice morning in jammies then.

I am thinking… about those friends I have on the East Coast who are being pummeled by the Frankenstorm.

I am thankful… for the Giants sweeping the Tigers in the World Series. I won the bet I had with Emily so $10 will be going to International Justice Mission.

In the kitchen… I made kuchen last Friday.

I am wearing… charcoal shirt and running shorts.

I am creating… details for my NaNoWriMo piece.

I am going… to San Jose this weekend for some R&R.

I am wondering… how I’m going to get through tomorrow morning. Daniel has an eye appointment in Sacramento at 8:15 a.m. Have I mentioned that I’m not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination? At least we can use the carpool lane for a good chunk of Highway 99.

I am reading… A Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling.

I am hoping… Hurricane Sandy/Frankenstorm doesn’t cause too much damage.

I am looking forward to… this election being over and all the smear ads off of TV.

Around the house… *pulls the covers over my head and ignores the question*

I am pondering… the stupidity of the people standing on the New Jersey boardwalk watching the storm surge. I mean, really? Do I need to regale people with the tales of those killed on the California coast last year because they decided to go watch the tsunami come in?

A favorite quote for today… ??Talk to me about the truth of religion and I’ll listen gladly. Talk to me about the duty of religion and I’ll listen submissively. But don’t come talking to me about the consolations of religion or I shall suspect that you don’t understand.?? ? C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

One of my favorite things… Trader Joe’s iced tea-lemonade.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Daniel’s eye appointment tomorrow, Morning Prayer and trick-or-treating on Wednesday, audiology appointment on Friday morning as well as heading to San Jose.
