For Today....

Inspired by the Simple Woman's Daybook)

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW ... it is finally looking like winter! Snow that has actually stuck to the ground! Where was it 2 weeks ago??? Sheesh!

I AM THINKING ... I have so much to do before my surgery next week!! YIKES!

WE ARE LEARNING … to be more organized, set goals and move forward!

I AM THANKFUL FOR ... my unbelievably supportive friends who are relieved for me, not sad for me.

FROM THE KITCHEN ... I need to find a bunch of crock pot recipes or casserole dishes to get my boys thru the next few weeks!

I AM WEARING ... my fluffy blue housecoat. It's very comforting.

I AM GOING ... to get a lot done this week. I have to. No choice.

I AM READING ... again FINALLY! I just finished About Alice, today I am starting a new book - name escapes me that my friend Sarah gave me and I always have the wonderful inspiring blogs!

I AM CREATING ... a plan. Yes, I was doing that last week, but I am new to this and want it to be of value!

I AM HOPING ... that this surgery next week will be the fix to my problems and the first step on my WELLNESS journey. I am hoping that I can get my emotions in check within the next 9 days!

I AM HEARING ... Jonah playing Xbox. He is home from school because of a nasty rash.

AROUND THE HOUSE ... there is a sneaky little buggar of a mouse that I am determined to catch. And at this point, I don't care if it is done humanely or not! LOL

ONE OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS ... is tea. But it HAS to be Tetley. MUST BE Tetley. After a weekend at the Great Wolf Lodge, who serves only Red Rose (yuck, puke, gack!), the first thing Sean and I did was make a cup of tea - good tea!!

A FEW PLANS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK ... run a few errands, trips to the hospital for blood work and pre-op appts, clean the house, scrapbook night at Sandys (YAY!!) and just all round getting ready and back in order.

A PICTURE TO SHARE ...

My nephews - James and Ryan. My handsome men. Rarely do I get a photo of them when they are both smiling!
