I need to be off to chapel asap, so this will be short for now.
Yesterday, I cleaned the bathrooms (as you know!), did two loads of
laundry and cleaned my kitchen. I also got some groceries, picked
up my contacts, and found a new pair of running shoes. My $10
Target shoes are already falling apart, but I figure that since I used
them virutally every day this summer, I got the $10 out of them!
We grilled chicken kebabs last night (first time I’ve ever tried them)
and they seemed to turn out pretty well. Then I cleaned up the
kitchen again, worked in my office for a while and watched Eureka with
Eric.
I was also very grouchy last night (at least inside my head). So
I’ve decided I need a short “Things I’m Thankful For” list today…
- I have a fabulous husband who’s looking very sexy right now with his beard!
- My classes seem to be going well and my students seem to have good attitudes.
- I did get a decent outline for Christmas program put together last night.
- I am as busy as I am because I have lots of family and friends with whom I want to spend time.
- Pastor Jackson is speaking in chapel today!
- My car is still running just fine, even though it is over 10 years old!
- It hasn’t started raining yet today (but I’ll take my umbrella just in case!)
I agree that diapers are a good gift. Not the most exciting, but the most useful! They’re expensive, too, so having to keep buying them really adds up. It’s always nice to not have to buy them. I also agree that a lot of little gifts is a good idea. I have done that before, trying to do a theme like bath stuff or something. That way it seems like you’re (as the recipient) getting a lot of stuff!
It seems as though you’re the site to visit for inspiration, so I thought I’d drop by..
I have a bathroom cleaning goal for the day, and maybe I’ll even get to my floors in the other areas of the house! I was also inspired by your “thankful” list. Nice.
kebabs=yummy!
Thanks again for the inspiration yesterday. I might need a little to get anything done here today. I still have my bathroom to clean so maybe that’s what I’ll do while Sierra naps.
I was reading Your Money Counts by Howard Dayton. Not the most exciting book ever, but I did like it. I’m doing the Crown Financial Ministries course at church, and this is required reading.
I’m rearranging the furniture in the upstairs of my house (it’s been something of an ongoing project!). I’ll be working on that tomorrow…
Peppers give Kayla gas, and the thought of eating hot fruit mixed with meat and vegetables makes me gag. I almost just threw up my soup.
I’m also having company this weekend (just Sunday afternoon) and am considering trying to get my painting done before then. We need to paint the kitchen and the master bedroom/bathroom. Can you do something to inspire me to get that done?
Yes – fabulous list! Apparently, you inspired more than the bathroom cleaning, because I also had chicken kebabs last night! Chicken, onions, zucchini and summer squash. It was wonderful, and I got my veggies in for the day, even though I couldn’t quite finish!
Good idea on the umbrella!
“I am as busy as I am because I have lots of family and friends with whom I want to spend time.” — I have to remind myself of this sometimes! Great list!
