Wearing: weird striped overalls.
Laughing about: the fact that pigs can have up to 32 nipples. And why do I know this?
Buying: clearance sandals. Might as well enjoy this perk of the season.
Dreading: washing, drying, and styling my hair today. I don’t want to do the work.
Enjoying: long pants. Although, I’m still wearing shorts a lot because we keep having hot days!
Looking forward to: a lil upcoming road trip.
Worried about: kid things. Always.
Watching:
Eating: no-bake cookies.
Annoyed by: loud cars.
Listening to:
Craving: a long nap on a cold, rainy day:
Needing: to do my girls’ IEPs today. I wish I could just send an email that says “keep everything the same, we’re good,” but we have to do all the official and legal stuff.
Sad about: the various things people are suffering from. Mental and physical illnesses and other hardships. Everyone is facing hard, heavy things.
Drinking: protein shakes that cost a bazillion dollars but we got for free.
Cooking: Cowboy Dinner. If I follow through with my meal plan (50% chance).
Singing: “No Way” from SIX.
Sick of: my kids leaving their dirty clothes on the bathroom floor and their socks all over the house.
Hoping: that some new clothes I ordered arrive this week.
Playing:
Ark Nova is still a favorite right now.
Procrastinating: returning my kids’ library books. Luckily they automatically renewed for the third (but last) time yesterday.
Bummed about: the ice maker in our fridge no longer working. I’ve been buying bags of ice to get by.
Loving: my new comforter. I used my Sam’s Cash to buy it last month.
Avoiding: ministering. Sorry, Shirley.
Grateful for: glasses. I don’t wear glasses (my vision is still really good - it’s one thing I’m holding on to with pride while the rest of me is falling apart), but I have a daughter who needs a pretty intense eyeglass prescription. Last week I taught Relief Society, and the lesson talked about the healings of Bartimeaus and the man in Bethsaida, both whom were blind, and as I thought about these miracles, I realized what a miracle it is that we can so easily correct so many ailments these days that would have been hindrances back then. My daughter, in biblical times, wouldn’t have been able to do anything for her sight. She would just have to live life blurry. But in today’s world, all she has to do is a simple eye exam, and she can see. We’re so used to these miracles that we forget they really are miracles.
