For Today: November 21st, 2009

Outside my window... it is so dark that I can only see the reflection of the ceiling light in the glass.  It is pouring rain and the sound soothes me.

I am thinking... I should write more often.  It's comforting and clarifying.

I am thankful for... quiet nights, a warm house.

From the kitchen...a slow-cooker meal of Captain's Curry Chicken over rice, with fresh-buttered bread and orange juice...the first day of slow-cooker Saturdays.

I am wearing... an Orb hoodie, Lululemon still pants and slippers.  Oh, comfort.


I am creating... a space of peace, joy and order.  I need practice before bringing another baby into this world.

I am going...to get used to the idea of travel-near-home for awhile.

I am reading...Writing Down the Bones: Freeing the Writer Within by Natalie Goldberg.

I am hoping... for nothing right now.  Just enjoying the moment.

I am hearing... the hockey game, as Marc is streaming it on the computer in front of me.

Around the house...there are remnants of Kai playing - a ride-on car, a shoe, bouncy ball, books...

One of my favourite things...hearing Kai happily babbling to himself in his crib.

A few plans for the rest of the week...finish up report cards, bake something, play with Kai.
