Daybook for November 9, 2009

FOR TODAY, Monday, November 9, 2009...

Outside my window...it's dark, since for some reason, my alarm woke me up at 4am.....

I am thinking...that as soon as I can get just a couple things done, I am going back to bed; I am not feeling well, ughhhhh.

I am thankful for...a cozy bed to curl up in when sick.

From the learning rooms...this week we're studying Ancient China in history, and Jacob gets to work on a small fossil dig for a science project.  I'm finding out that it can be really hard to find books in the library right now for science....books that don't teach evolution.  So, every time I am reading and start to read, "millions of years ago," I have to pause and explain why that's not really true.

From the kitchen...will be scalloped potatoes with sausage, hopefully.

I am wearing...jammies and robe.

I am creating...I'm actually almost finished with our bedroom curtains. 

I am going...nowhere today; I need to go get my license renewed, but I don't think that's going to happen today.

I am reading...Who Do I Talk To? by Neta Jackson.

I am hoping...to get better today, since tomorrow is Jaden's birthday, and I am making him an Elmo/Cookie Monster cake.

I am hearing...silence.

Around the house...need to clean.

One of my favorite things...is a lazy Sunday afternoon with Dan and the boys.

A few plans for the rest of the week: School; Jacob to Tae Kwon Do; church/choir stuff (we're practicing really hard for the Christmas program); writing assignments/MamaBuzz work; dentist appt for Jacob; errands/library; hayride with our small group Saturday; gearing up to work Step Into Africa next week; etc.

Here is a picture for thought I am sharing...(We finally got some of our pics back; I'll share more later.) :)
