FOR TODAY: November 25, 2011
Outside my window...it's cloudy. My lawn guys are here mowing etc.
I am thinking...about how to keep everything in check. I'm thinking about how to cover all my bases and do what I need to do.
I am thankful...for my husband and kids. Joe is my rock, my person. My kids are so special to me. I want their lives to be the best possible.
In the kitchen...leftovers. Eating is overrated.
I am wearing...black sweats and a white sports bra.
I am creating...nothing unfortunately.
I am going...back to work on Monday. Thank God I have a good job. I'm always trying to be the best teacher I can be.
I am wondering...how to proceed.
I am reading...The Art of Loving.
I am hoping...that I can learn to balance everything.
I am looking forward to...going to Reno for Christmas.
I am hearing...the TV.
Around the house...the house looks great. Joe got the Christmas tree up today. The house is clean.
I am pondering...how to help someone with mental health issues. You can't commit them unless they are psychotic or a harm to themselves or others. Yet you watch their lives and your relationship disintegrate in front of you. I feel so helpless.
One of my favorite things...snuggle time with my hubby and kids. Such a treasured moment.
A few plans for the rest of the week: I'm going to the gym now. Taking Sierra to the movies later. Gotta catch up on grading papers before Monday.
Here's a picture I thought worth sharing: I'm SO thankful for my good friends!!
