Outside my window...it is dark! I suspect that dark is going to be my new friend while I walk this road of caring for my mother. I never was a morning person but now I think that is going to become a 24/7 thing.
I am thinking...that while change may be inevitable there is no rule that says I have to like it or accept it gracefully.
I am thankful for...family! Siblings who understand without being told and who have refrigerators with plenty of beer in them.
From the kitchen...is a good question. I think I will have to wait for inspiration to strike. Let's hope it doesn't take all day about it.
I am wearing...warm and cozy flannel jammies! We may be in the south but it still gets darn chilly around here at night.
I am going...to put in a full day's work today! (I'll let you all know how that pans out after the day is over)
I am reading...you're kidding right! Between trying to work on commissions and taking care of mom there is no time left over for reading. I managed to do 11 loads of laundry over the weekend!
I am hoping...to figure out why the quilting machine is out of whack and set it right before I give in to the temptation to throw it through the window!
I am hearing...the distant whistle of a train as it passes by on the tracks, the furnace coming on to blow some warm air into this place, and the now familiar creaks and groans of this young house growing older as it wraps itself around a new family.
Around the house...the other inmates are sleeping and the air has a distinct odor of anticipation as this new day brings its promise with it into the lives of this family.
One of my favorite things...spending the evening having fun with my niece and nephews.
A few plans for the rest of the week...I would like to see all of the smocking on this christening set be done by Wed. so I can start construction. Tune in later to see if that little plan works out.
Here is a picture thought that I am sharing with you...
