FOR TODAY
Outside my window... There is a thick, heavy fog. I am hoping it burns off pretty soon because we have some errands to run today.

I am thinking...Today is my oldest child's 16th birthday! He is growing into a Godly young man. He is Mr. Personality and keeps us all entertained.
I am thankful... That we have the money to buy 16 yo ds a much needed new pair of glasses. We are going today to choose frames.
In the kitchen... On each child's birthday, I make pancakes in the shape of their new age. So this morning I made ds a "16" pancake and regular pancakes for everyone else.
I am wearing... my long denim skirt, hot pink turtleneck sweater, navy tights and brown loafers.
I am creating... I am sewing a new blouse for my 12 yo dd. I made her several skirts last week and she needs a new blouse to match.
I am going... We are going to shop for eyeglasses today. Then tonight, dd and I have her Keepers at Home group. At some point today or tomorrow, I desperately need to go to the library to pick up books for school.
I am reading... too many things at once! LOL I am reading my Bible, trying to complete the Bible in 90 days program again. I am also reading "On Being Presbyterian" by Sean Michael Lucas. This is not to mention the books I have started recently, but am not actively reading at the moment.
I am hoping... for a really great new school semester. We start back today!
From the school room... I am really trying to implement more living books into our learning. I love Ambleside Online and use a lot of their suggestions.
Around the house... I am working on a new house cleaning schedule.
One of my favorite things... Lipton Vanilla Caramel Truffle tea! Yum!
A few plans for the rest of the week: A hopefully productive school week, new eyeglasses for ds, a possible vet visit for our little dog, trip to the library, Keepers at Home
No picture this week because my camera is acting crazy.

I enjoyed reading your daybook. I like the idea of the pancakes. I always cooked my children's favorite meal for dinner on their Birthday. I think these traditions create wonderful memories.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering about your skirt pattern...could you tell me what you use.
I've been thinking of making a housekeeping schedule but haven't done it so far. I just do a little at a time...
