FOR TODAY November 16, 2011

Outside my window... a few leaves are tenaciously hanging onto their branches, the sun is fighting to be seen through a blanket of gray clouds and a cardinal is scavenging for food.

I am thinking... that I need to find a way to reduce my stress levels.

I am thankful... for children who sleep until 7am and beyond.

From the learning rooms...the roaring twenties and the great depression.

In the kitchen... leftovers and dirt cake.

I am wearing... my jammies until I finish this post, then I'll get ready for the day.

I am creating... many boards on Pinterest.

I am going...to write a few thank you notes today.

I am wondering... why some of my friends think I'm narrow minded because I have certain morals, values and opinions that they do not share.  Are they the narrow minded ones?

I am reading... many different articles on many different blogs and websites today.

I am hoping... to get some fun beach pictures of the children and then update the look of this blog.

I am looking forward to... enjoying the day with my children.

I am hearing... the traffic noise outside as many are heading off to work and school.

Around the house... I'd really like to clean out our storage area and then the garage.  I'm feeling a need to de-clutter a few messy spaces.

I am pondering... what you are pondering.

One of my favorite things... the sound of autumn leaves dancing in the streets.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Awana, doctor appointment, clean out, menu plan and look forward to the weekend.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

He got very quiet so we knew something was up.  We snuck around the corner with the camera to find him surrounded by all this paper towel.  From the look on his face, we certainly surprised him! :D
