Weekbook: First week of November

I know I keep saying this, but time seems to be flying. I can't believe it's November already and 2008 is starting to turn the corner towards 2009. 200NINE! Wow. It seems like just yesterday I was 15 and thinking the year 2000, and turning 31, were a lifetime away.





On the nightstand: Getting Things Done, College Prep Homeschooling

On the couch: We're still reading Across Five Aprils. Almost done though!

On the needles: I can't say. It's a gift for someone who occasionally reads this blog, LOL. Let's just say it's warm and chocolatey colored.

On the deck: This surprise visitor:




On the table:

• Sloppy Franks (sloppy Joe type meat - we used browned ground beef mixed with a can of Hormel turkey with beans chili, and put it into hot dog buns), with garden salad (this is real salad from our real garden! What a treat.) and steamed veggies


• French Bread Surprise


• Crock pot chicken (it was legs/thighs this week) with salad


• Soup made from the broth of the chicken bones, French bread, garden salad


• Premade Tyson breast tenders, garden salad, veggies, baked beans, and cut up apples


• Tonight - not sure yet! We need to shop so I'm sort of "shelf shopping" for dinners

On my mind: Oh, everything. I'm a woman, after all, LOL.

On tap for next week: God willing, a trip to a museum and dinner with a friend. Dinner out one night with another couple. (That's almost like a date. Can you believe it??) Orthodontist visit. Skye's birthday! My baby's turning nine.

Speaking of Jeffrey (was I? Well, he's always on my mind) he's up from his nap, and my computer is giving me fits, so this will be an abbreviated weekbook entry! :)
