What a week. It’s been a little rough. The highs, the lows, the very low. It’s exhausting to keep lifting yourself up but historically that’s what we’ve done and we shall continue. That has not changed.
Right Now:
Getting ready to head to church for student and online ministry. I’ve got my coffee. I’m ready.
This Week:
I am off for the Veterans Day holiday this Monday and then because I need to use up some time, I am taking Tuesday off as well. Much needed. No plans just reading and relaxing with the pup. She is still hanging on and manages to enjoy her sunbeam bathing, reading with me on the couch and her new trick is jumping out of her stroller. This is not good! She hasn’t been able to jump at all so now I really need to watch her. She knew she was naughty too! She gave me such side eye.
Reading:
- The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai (Nov book club)
- Emma by Jane Austen (still trying to get through it)
- So Late in The Day by Claire Keegan (liked her enough to pick up another book)
Watching:
Still watching Tulsa King. Not in the mood for much else. Is it time for Hallmark Christmas yet? I need cozy and feel good stuff.
Grateful for:
- Stuffed crust personal pizzas that makes for an easy office lunch.
- That McDs stunt that a certain person did recently got me off of those McD’s breakfast sandwiches. That’s a plus! They can’t be good for me.
- Plants. They got me through the shutdowns and they are still alive!! Praise to the Lord!
- Sweet students who share their sushi with me 🙂
- This is a big one, my daughter’s boss decided to give her three days off at Christmas so she is coming down as well as my son and his cat Root Beer! Christmas will be sweet.
Recently reviewed books in case you missed them:
Something new! I started a Bookshop on Bookshop.org! It’s fun to add books and I’ve been a supporter of Indie stores for a long time but this is too cool.
Give me an update. How are you doing? Really? I am disappointed for sure but will carry on.
