FOR TODAY
January 4, 2009
Outside my window... is a winter wonderland! :) It is absolutely beautiful. About three inches on the ground so far and more coming down steadily. I LOVE it!
I am thinking... that school is dismissing 2 hours early (just got the call) and it was pretty silly for them to have opened today at all. When I left here with the kids this morning you couldn't even see the road!
I am thankful for... my nice, warm home. It is so very cold and going to be even colder next weekend.
From the kitchen... I am making homemade chicken pot pie for this evening. The chicken is cooking now and smells SO good! :)
I am wearing... jeans, a heavy sweater and my silk long underwear! :)
I am creating... not much today. :( I'm having trouble focusing on a project right now. Just too much on my mind.
I am going... to brave the icy roads to go pick up my kids. Wish me luck!
I am reading... A Page Out of Life by Kathleen Reid
I am hoping... that we get home safely and have a nice evening playing board games, working on a jigsaw puzzle, and maybe baking some cookies later.
I am hearing... an annoying commercial for a local attorney. I wish they would run all the commercials at the beginning or the end of a program.
Around the house... I'm going to start reorganizing the linen closet and both upstairs bathroom closets. My quilt collection is taking over the linen closet and I must get things organized!
One of my favorite things... Spending the day at home when there is a blanket of white on the ground outside and lots more coming down! I'm really looking forward to getting the kids home. :)
A few plans for the rest of the week: A meeting at school tomorrow evening, a run into town for groceries sometime tomorrow afternoon, and being able to report later in the week that those closets are done! :)
Here is picture (or three :) )for thought I am sharing... The miracles that are snowflakes. Aren't they gorgeous? And perfect? :)

I was thinking about making homemade chicken pot pie tonight. Sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteI'm ready for the snow to go away!
It sounds as though you have a "peaceful" heart, Kelli. Winter is a great time for contentment and peace. Hope you had no problems navigating the roads to pick up the kids...It's dry here, but cold.
ReplyDeleteThose snowflakes are beautiful! We could use a few more of those here, the ones we have are getting "stale" and dingy.
ReplyDeleteHi kelli,
