Blue skies and sunshine today - "beautimus!" (as my husband says)
I am listening to:
We're flipping back and forth between the Daytona 500 (him) and the Olympics (me).
I am wearing:
gray sweatpants, green shirt, bulky socks (my feet are always cold).
I am thankful for:
the sweet time we have had celebrating Valentine's Day; for family; for rains that have replenished the lakes, creeks and ponds; for friends; for answered prayer
I am pondering:
blogging; still talking the whole thing over with the Lord wanting to get it right this time
I am reading:
finishing up "Little Women" - new books waiting on the book shelf
From the kitchen:
We had our Valentine Dinner out last night (lobster tails, shrimp, scrumptious) so we'll have steak and salad tonight
I am thinking:
about getting balance in my life - sorting out the various things and prioritizing
I am creating:
granny square afghan - planning to work on it this evening
I am hoping and praying:
for safe travels home from Sri Lanka for our kids; protection for our daughter while she is in Paris; pleasant days for my parents
In the garden:
The only green leaves right now are the irises - they seem to be able to weather anything! Soon it will be time to prune and clean it all up.
Around the house:
we're thinking about new bookshelves (never can have enough)
One of my favorite things:
dark chocolate (from my Valentine)
A few plans for the week:
walks, start Pilates (again!), some shopping, Bible Study, choir, some writing
A picture (or two or three) thought I'm sharing:
Grandchildren overjoyed with their very first snow!
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone,
Linda

ReplyDeletehey i saw a picture on line...can't remember where...that showed a baby with her baby blanket made of granny squares. all the squares had a single colour aroung each square that was the same colour as the border of the whole blanket. it was cute.
Your grandchildren are beautiful! Glad

So when you have a snow storm once a century, do you go out and buy a whole set of everything you need?? That could be frustrating!
ReplyDeleteI have never done the Daybook - I should! Good one.
Beautiful faces here, Linda!
ReplyDeleteKids in Sri Lanka and Paris, wow... Our farthest right now (Rachael) is in FL for her work.
God's wondrous blessings to you ~ Maria

Yes I've been watching the olympics, I think my favourites so far is the ski jumping and ice skating!

I love that word "beautimus", will have to borrow it from your hubby! hehe I so enjoyed reading your daybook entry. Sounds like you had a lovely Valentine dinner, wish I could have joined you! lol I went to the auction, did a bit of shopping and then spent more hours organizing my pictures. You should have seen my bedroom, pictures everywhere! I'm still not done but have put in quite a dent on the piles:-) Your grandchildren look like they're having so much fun playing in the snow...how awesome that it was their fist time playing with snow!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week my friend. xoxo
