for today

i hope to make this a regular sunday thing, inspired by my dear cousin's blog:

Outside my window I see leaves that should already have fallen, but are clinging.

I am thinking about how great Christmas morning is going to be.

I am thankful for nice warm sweaters and crab legs for dinner.

From the project room: handmade jewelry by Lily for her sister's Christmas present.

From the kitchen: peanut-butter kiss cookies for the family tonight.

I am creating homemade gifts for friends and sisters this year.

I am going to family gathering at the Stacks' house tonight.

I am reading an excellent mystery called "Bone Harvest."

I am hoping to get a few more consulting jobs in the new year.

I am hearing the oven timer going off!

Around the house Tom the elf is working his magic.

One of my favorite things is still my yellow mixer.

A few plans for the rest of the week:  lunch with a colleague, reading stories at the kindergarten class, watching the 4th grade pioneer program, playing at IKEA with lacy, k-ma and elly.

happy sunday!
