Sunday Matters: The Girl Is Here!

Sunday Matters

Good morning! My daughter was supposed to fly in tonight but due to weather and her campus closing for snow, we switch her flight so she could come in this past Friday. Gives her a little extra time. She is loving visiting with The Otter Pup and Root Beer the cat. No big plans while she is here besides a good haircut. She just wants to chill.

As for my son, he continues to interview. Right now the most promising opportunities are for Denver and Kansas City.

Right Now:

Coffee. Breakfast. Off to student ministry. I might try to sneak a chapter in before I go.

This Week:

Not a lot scheduled but this Monday I do have a follow-up ultrasound for a lump that was found four months ago. The radiologist was pretty convinced it’s benign but wants to check for growth now that a few months have passed. Hoping it’s gone, to be honest.

Reading:

The School for Good Mothers. Although I might be done with it by the time you read this. Also reading Memorial Drive for club.

Memorial Drive

Watching:

We finished All of Us Are Dead. Looking forward to Season 2. Supposedly they have a green light to start filming.

Grateful for:

  • Books that  instantly pull me in.
  • This is super dumb but I discovered Chick Fil A’s gluten free egg and cheese sandwich. Makes for a nice breakfast now and then.

Have a wonderful Sunday and great week!

Root Beer the cat, looking cuteHappy Wednesday. It’s at this point in the week where I start to pine for the weekend. Just the idea of the weekend is comforting to me. This weekend we have some less than fun things to take care of but still, time off is time off. 

As you can see, Root Beer the cat has fit in quite well. The pic is a little blurry because she insists on getting so close to my phone. She and The Otter Pup are still “frens” but there was an incident where the pup got too close and got swatted at. In typically dramatic fashion, The Otter Pup fell off the couch, landed on her face, and lost a tooth. That tooth was loose anyway as she is getting older but man did she yelp. Root Beer was concerned and now the pup is more mindful of Root Beer’s whereabouts.

On Instagram the other day I saw something about Jack Kerouac. I’ve never read his work before. I’d like to but I have to catch-up on my reviews first. Perhaps that will motivate me to get through my list. Have you read his work before?

This Sunday my daughter arrives for a quick visit. She is exhausted and so homesick. She just wants to chill in her room. She is going to love Root Beer.

I am still reading The School for Good Mothers and Memorial Drive for book club. Still taking the pup and cat for walkies albeit slow. Starting to cook again but finding foods to eat after surgery has been rough.

The weather, though! So nice here!
