FOR TODAY (May 18, 2009)...

Outside my window... 64 degrees. Supposed to get hot and humid. Yuck. I can't wait for summer to be over and it hasn't even started yet.

I am thinking... about an old friend of mine who's in ICU at the hospital after a kidney transplant.

I am hoping... that my mother's trip goes well, with no complications. And NO sickness!!

I am thankful for... doctors that listen to you and not just think they know everything.

From the kitchen... nothing is coming from the kitchen right now. Have been too sick to cook, and I have no time this week.

I am wearing... black pants, hunter green shirt, awesome sandals.

I am creating... greeter charts. Joy.

I am hearing... the computers humming, the clock ticking, the wind blowing outside.

Around the house... Mom is coming..... time to clean!!

One of my favourite things... my mother coming to visit. Yay! Three days till arrival!

A few plans for the rest of the week:
Camp fundraiser.
Clean house.
Church kids party.
Mom arrives.
Fun!

Here is a picture thought I'm sharing... I had to share TWO pictures this week. The first one is my very first tasting of creme brulee', which was out of this world good. Wowza. My best friend's son made it last night... yumyumyumyumyum. The second picture is lame, but fun. We were making potato salad over the weekend and there was teeny, tiny pickle in the jar - only as big as a quarter. So cute. I know, I know..... I really DO have a life. Sort of. :o)

FOR TODAY (May 11, 2009)...

Outside my window... everything is turning green, and it's 69 degrees. I see that the pools are filled and nearly ready for use.

I am thinking... about how bad my throat hurts. Yikes.

I am thankful for... Ibuprofen.

From the kitchen... I am hungry, but do NOT feel good, so I don't think anything will be coming from the kitchen.

I am wearing... my pajamas. That's what you wear when you don't feel well. Comfort clothes.

I am creating... nothing. Creative lag....

I am hearing... the birds chirping outside, the television, and the cat breathing.

Around the house... I still haven't found my glasses. I have NO idea what happened to them. *sigh*

One of my favourite things... My cat. He's just so amazing.

A few plans for the rest of the week:
That depends on how the strep culture comes out.

Here is a picture thought I'm sharing... I am not a fan of warm weather, but still.... who can resist the beauty of pink trees??

FOR TODAY (May 4, 2009)...

Outside my window... it's 72 degrees and sunny... not at all my kind of weather. I'm hot. I want to throw my shoes off and work barefooted.

I am thinking... about my friend who has an audition tonight. She's nervous. I don't think she knows how incredibly gifted she is.

I am thankful for... permission.... no explanation.... just permission.

From the kitchen... I forgot I'm supposed to make a dessert for this workshop I'm having tonight. Woopsy. Guess I'll be busy after work.

I am wearing... flowered palazzo pants, burgundy shirt, shoes.... which I'd rather not be wearing.

I am creating... a list of interview questions for potential new hires.

I am hearing... someone next to me is rustling papers and the air conditioner is running.

Around the house... I must locate my glasses. I think something in the house may have eaten them. I am quick to suspect the recliner, but it could have also been the bed.

One of my favourite things... wearing what I want. I don't like to have to dress up.

A few plans for the rest of the week:
Couponing workshop.
Girls' night.
The rest is in the air.

Here is a picture thought I'm sharing... for my birthday, my best friend's kids pitched in and got me some sparkly Converse. This picture does NOT do them justice - the radiate colour everywhere. I LOVE them.
