Today…

Outside my window: It’s a little on the overcast side in the high 40’s – what happened to the Fall? What happened to summer?? It got very cold all of a sudden in the past week or so and I’m really missing the cool autumn weather we had not long ago.

I am hearing: The dish washer doing it’s thing in the kitchen, the baby cooing a bit with her meme

I am thinking: about switching cell phone providers. Our service with AT&T hasn’t been nearly as good since moving to Wisconsin and we’re less than in love with our current phones. Our contract doesn’t expire until June though so we’re really in no hurry, just sort of mulling the idea over and looking around.

I am hoping: to find a good (free) exercise class to join at the Y soon, sometime on the weekend. And if there’s something fun that MM can do there at the same time, all the better!

I am reading: Queste by Angie Sage still – I’m about 1/3 of the way through it I think. I’m hoping I’ll be able to find more reading time this week. I didn’t do a ton of reading this weekend, busy visiting with family and we stayed out a bit late on Saturday – Dan took me and the baby to see Whip It! at the theatre – really good movie, but a bit too loud for the baby’s ears in my opinion.

I am creating: Nothing – I’m still not having any creative urges these days and I’m okay with that. :0)

I am wearing: my LL Bean jeans that Dan took in for me so they fit again! So I’m wearing those and a red blouse and my favorite blue bandana because I’m having a “get out of my face” hair day.

In the kitchen:

• Monday: Grilled Chicken with Rice and Carrots
• Tuesday: Spaghetti with Italian Sausage
• Wednesday: Soup and Sandwiches
• Thursday: leftover Enchilada Pizza Bake
• Friday: Salmon with rice & black beans & salad

Around the house: Honestly I’m not sure I’ll ever have anything interesting to type here.

Plans for the week: Today is the last day MM’s grandparents will be in town so we’re taking it easy and enjoying spending some time with them. They leave early tomorrow morning. The rest of the week will be pretty boring in comparison to the fun weekend we had. We might go to the Y this weekend.

A few of my favorite things: I found a great pair of Riders-brand jeans at Walmart. They look like this but they are a lighter color, couldn’t find the exact pair online. They fit me perfectly though since I got them in a petite size they aren’t like a foot too long like most jeans are. When the weather dropped dramatically this weekend I decided that I had to buy a second pair of jeans – capris just won’t cut it anymore.
