For today... Sunday, September 30, 2012

Outside my window... It is still dark

I am thinking... What a busy week it has been full of new experiences.

I am thankful for... The fact that it seems like I have finally kicked the cold I have been fighting for the past few weeks.

I am wearing... Sweat pants and a sweat shirt - ready to head out for a morning walk before church.

I am creating... Jars of food for my pantry.

I am reading... People of Babel by Vaughn Heppner

I am praying for... Safe travels this week.

Pondering these words...  Joy can be real only if people look on their life as a service, and have a definite object in life outside themselves and their personal happines.  ~Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy~

I am still hoping... For a long, beautiful fall.

I am hearing... The dishwasher and soft music playing the background.

Around the house... Preparing for my daughter to come home for the weekend, thanksgiving and birthdays!

One of my favorite things... My daughter coming home - even if it is a short visit!
