november 9, 2009...
Outside my window...clear, gray november dawn, 46 degrees, 43% humidity
I am thinking...i may have some more months before i sleep well with the end of night nursing for one and nightmares for the other.
i also am thinking of deer hunting. i don't think i'll get to go again this year, which makes me a bit melencholoy.
I am thankful for...the reasons i don't sleep, healthy and normal boy and girl babies. also for a husband who is in serious fall garden cleanup and nesting mode.
From the learning rooms...way is really getting good at sounding out letters (thanks PBS and leapfrog) i really don't want him to think this is work, nor push him at all, so he plays at learning to read.
and of course, nornor is learning to walk.
From the kitchen... the last of last years' venison roast tonight, with roasted vegetables.
I am wearing...black pajamas, gray wool triangle sweater, sage crocs
I am creating...hard cider for christmas, beer too. i have a name picked out, the under the desk brewing company.
I am going... no place like home today! though a fair amount of tidying to do, as well as setting up the 2010 calendars and such.
I am reading...childrens' books and childrens pyschology books
I am hoping...the plumber comes on wednesday to fix the floor
I am hearing...two little kids happily playing in the living room, chickens scratching leaves outside, coffee maker heat ticking on the counter
Around the house...it's a bit chilly, but should warm up later, warm enough outside today to open the windows for the afternoon.
One of my favorite things...coffee with milk
A few plans for the rest of the week: playgroup tomorrow with sarah and zeinab, nornor's birthday on thursday and grandma and grandpa come visit on saturday! we are going to the country store for dinner, woohoo!!
i also hope to get gardens more tidyed up for the winter, it looks better for these gray months, and it's so much easier to start in the spring.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
