For todayOutside my window...Cool temperatures, drizzly rain, and the most vivid yellow leaves. What a gorgeous fall day to be inside by the warm fire.
I am thinking... of the assorted appointments I need to schedule for the puppy and my girls, of my to do list for the day which keeps growing, and of the pictures which need developing from Cassidy's party on Saturday.
From the learning room... I am working on becoming a better wife, friend, and mommy.
I am thankful for... so much! My heart is overflowing with gratitude this morning, as I sit in my comfortable and warm house, enjoying the fire, while it is chilly and rainy outside. The time this morning in wonderful study of God's Word, and the scriptures he led me to- pure blessing! The gift of my job, and the blessing of working from home. My precious family, and the joy of being a part of it. Rusty finding the hamsters this morning before the girls awakened and realized they were loose. Rusty finding the hamsters before I awakened and realized the were loose!
From the kitchen... turkey tetrazzini, homemade beef and veggie soup, grilled salmon, spaghetti, and Bunco on Friday (which means Daddy cooks for himself and the girls).
I am wearing...khaki shorts, white V-neck tee and warm socks.
I am reading...Cottage Living and Home Companion. The Christmas issues came this week and I am poring over every detail:-)
I am hoping... John McCain is elected.
I am hearing...Christmas music, and Cailin chatting with Sadie about appropriate puppy behavior.
Around the house...I'm planning our holiday schedule, gift lists, budget, and family portrait appointment. Still working on posting the girl's outgrown outfits on Craig's List. Menu planning and goal setting for our family. Planning classroom activities for Cassidy's 4th grade class as a room mom. Enjoying this wonderful season.
A few plans for the rest of the week... Help at the girl scout peanut booth sale...Our weekly typicals: Oasix (Cailin's youth group), gymnastics, and riding... play rehearsal... Friday no school... cheer leading clinic for Cassidy...bunco...VOTING.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

I absolutely love it when it's cold and rainy! For some reason it motivates me. :)
I thought about you this weekend and wondered how the rest of your week went after your day home with your girls when they were sick. I hope Cassidy was feeling better for her party.
I am totally in agreement with you hoping that McCain wins. Frankly, it scares me to think about the consequences if he doesn't. I'm praying hard!
