For Today...February 2, 2011

Outside my window... there is still ice on the ground and it's 14 degrees! Thank God for my Snuggie!

I am thinking...about all the projects that I need to tackle! Hope this allergy attack doesn't last long!

I am thankful for... being able to take care of my family. Don't know if it's God's will for me to work right now, but I'm thankful to be at home and available for drop offs and pick ups and all the errands in between!

From the kitchen...I made my menu for the week and have stuck to it! Yay! Being stuck in the house due to the ice, makes it easy to stick to my menu! LOL Tonight we are having chicken wraps with fruit cups.

I am wearing...my black pajamas, which I plan to stay in all day!

I am hoping...to do better at blogging. I hope to gain more followers, because I love meeting new friends!

I am hearing... My daughters fixing their lunch in the kitchen and laughing while doing so. Also, hearing the tv upstairs.

I am remembering...how cuddly my babies used to be. Now they're big and cuddly (sometimes). They grow up so fast!

I am praying...everybody to be safe and stay in if they can. The temperatures here in the DFW area aren't expected to rise until Friday. Also praying the kiddos go back to school tomorrow! LOL

Around the house... Kids enjoying their second snow day, playing games and watching tv.

On my mind... How good God is! He's an awesome God, who is worthy to be praised!


One of my favorite things... wrapping myself up in my Snuggie on our couch in our bedroom and watching my favorite shows!

A few plans for the rest of the week...waiting to see what the weather does, but I plan to clean up around the house as soon as I start to feel better.



Here are some picture thoughts I am sharing with you...


Me and my Snuggie!

Be Blessed!

Stop in and visit Peggy over at Simple Woman's Daybook.


For Today... May 11,2009

Outside my window...soft patter of rain

I am thinking... about the blessed day I had yesterday. The sweetly prepared breakfast from hubby & kiddos, the awesome church service and the delicious meal afterwards (family took me to Zio's Italian Restaurant).

I am thankful for... my wonderful family and the blessing of being chosen by God to be a mother

From the kitchen...preparing to bake a cake to say thank you to my neighbor & friend for watching the kids while we went to the marriage retreat last weekend.

I am wearing... blue jean capris and a black print sleeveless top.

I am hoping.... a stress-free week!

I am hearing...the chiming of the washer as it finishes a load and the rain beginning to pick up outside my window.

I am praying...that the children have a good week at school and that my hubby has a safe trip on his inspection this week.

Around the house... catching up with laundry and switching out seasonal clothing for the boys.

One of my favorite things...enjoying the Godiva chocolates that my family gave me yesterday. Yay chocolate! Yay me!

A few plans for the rest of the week... tidy up the house before hubby comes back in town.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...*




One of the reasons I'm blessed!

The Simple Woman's Daybook - April 27th

I finally get a chance to participate again in "The Simple Woman's Daybook", which is originated at Peggy's blog, The Simple Woman's Daybook. Check her out!

For Today...

Outside my window... rain and lots of it!

I am thinking... of the tasks that need to be done this week

I am thankful for... my hubby feeling better!

From the kitchen... preparing to finish off leftover BBQ neckbones from yesterday's dinner that hubby cooked. I'll add corn and white rice and hopefully they will finish it all!

I am wearing... jeans (Baby Phat) and a green top with a lace design with scattered sequins on the design. Oh yeah, and green flip flops.

I am reading... Beth Moore's wonderful book (chosen by our pastor's wife) "Get out of that Pit" and "Raising Lambs Among Wolves" by Mark I. Bubeck

I am hoping... to one day get caught up on my laundry (yeah, right)!

I am creating... a schedule for myself and the kiddos to follow, so there can be a little sense of order in our home (yeah, right)

I am praying... that God will remove the generational curses in my oldest son brought on by his biological family

Around the house... enjoying my new living room set. It's gorgeous!!!

One of my favorite things... sleeping during the rain (had to take a short nap after the kiddos left this morning)

A few plans for the rest of the week... getting my nails done today (rare occasion), working tomorrow morning and Wednesday morning, preparing for our trip to Temple for the church marriage retreat, turning in my Avon order and enjoying church Wednesday night!
