For Today: Wednesday, June 25, 2008
Outside My Window...

It's hot and humid. The sun is beginning to go down.

I am thinking...

About my summer plans. Now that we are back from PA, I need to focus and do some major purging of stuff we've accumulated.
I am thankful for...

Good news from my dad about his health!
From the kitchen...

Lots of snacking food. Taylor has some friends over for movies, games and snacks.
I am wearing...

Denim shorts, a green T shirt and ankle socks.
I am creating...

Plans (as usual). Lesson plans for next year and purging plans for the summer.
I am going...

To head over to the library tomorrow to get the girls signed up for the summer reading program. Also have to stop at the post office to mail their tests to be graded.
I am reading...

All of my school planning books and a daily devotional called 365 Mary.
I am hoping...

To start purging this week. Not sure if I'll continue the girls' room or start the school room. I usually save the school room for last because it is such a large task.
I am hearing...

Giggles and laughter from Taylor and her friends.

Around the house...

We cleaned up a bit today since we were hosting this get-together tonight. But it was just a quick fix. I have so much trouble trying to discern what to get rid of and what to keep.
One of my favorite things...

Good quality bookcases. I really need one for all the books we've acquired in the last year, and all the ones I will be purchasing soon.
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:

Library trip, continue laundry, order a bookcase, make a haircut appt., fill the bird feeders, plan meals for the next week or so, buy a little pool for Evan to play with on the deck. And if there is any time (or energy) left after all that, I'll start purging an area of the house.
Here is picture thought I am sharing...
