Outside my Window... the sun is going down and it is that beautiful dusk color.
I am thinking...that even though i got off to a late start this morning, i really have accomplished quite a bit.
From the learning rooms...i am learning to play the Mandolin. There are now 3 of us in the family playing.
I am thankful for...having Pho with the family tonight!
From the kitchen...nothing much is happening out there.
I am wearing...sweat pants, sweat jacket and a long sleeved T with brown slippers..
I am reading...The Book Thief a very interesting and well-written book.
I am hoping....to get my craft room cleaned out and organized this week.
I am creating...socks for Tammie. (it's part of her Christmas gift.)
I am hearing...the teakettle warming up preparatory to my making a cuppa.
Around the house...it is comforting.
One of my favorite things...rearranging furniture! i just did a bit in my living room today.
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... tomorrow i have Bible Study in the morning with a lunch after, then support group in the evening. i plan to go in early to do a bit of shopping. Then Thursday is TOPS, and Friday is a craft market. My daughter and i will take soap there to sell. i plan to make some soap also this week.
Yesterday was our moms birthday; she would have been 89 years old. i am sharing an early picture of her and dad going out on the town; probably in the early '50's.
I told Steve he needed to learn the mandolin too so we can start a mandolin band... he came up with the name the Candolins! :) I've been working on learning a few new tunes... double jigs... while you tubing one of the tunes (to make sure I had the melody right) I found this guy... His facial expression (of lack of) cracks me up!
