FOR TODAY: Saturday, June 17, 2012
Outside my window... It is sunny, but the clouds are piling up. I think it will rain later this afternoon.

I am thinking... that this keyboard I am using is really quite aggravating. I am at my Uncle's house and his keyboard constantly skips keys. The PC is slow and the CPU gets jammed up easily, so it simply doesn't recognize what I've typed and just picks up again wherever I'm at when it catches up! I have to go back and insert letters and spaces on EVERYTHING I type...annoying.

I am thankful... that I was able to see so many of my family members yesterday at the Redneck Olympics. (yeah, that speaks volumes, doesn't it, lol)
In the kitchen... I am house-sitting, so the kitchen here is stocked for me! :) I am spoiled.

I am wearing...  what else.............pajamas ;)

I am creating... quilts! and an embroidery project

I am going... to enjoy being away from all the distractions of daily life at home and get some UFO's completed!

I am wondering... how Kyle will like his basketball camp this week.

I am reading... just finished book 2 of the "Daughters of Caleb Bender" series. This has been the most adventuresome Amish series I've ever read. DYING to read book 3 but it doesn't come out until DECEMBER! :(( So I just started "Love of Her Own" by Maggie Brendan (book 3 of the 'Heart of the West' series) and I am reading "The Forbidden" by Beverly Lewis (Book 2 in the 'Courtship of Nellie Fisher' series). I have also started reading "Faith Dare" and am still working on "Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World"-although I haven't picked that up in a month or so.

I am hoping...that Val can get me in to color my hair soon.

I am looking forward to...  Ronnie coming here today! After church he is heading out to visit us for Father's Day. Kyle & I left Thursday and haven't seen him ;(

I am learning...to embroider nicely...practice makes better!
Around the house...IDK.I am not home! lol.
I am pondering... how good God is and how he provided a new job for Ronnie that will bring peace to my wonderful husband.
A favorite quote for today...  DAD...A son's first hero. A daughter's first love.
One of my favorite things...downloading E-books to my Kindle...don't realize how much I do that until I am in a place without wifi...my tablet is useless! (LOL)

A few plans for the rest of the week:  Kyle has basketball camp and I will be house-sitting all week in Orlando....so...I have brought plenty of UFO's to work on! I will be sewing away! I brought fabric to start a quilt for Lisa's Quilted Hugs project for the orphanage in Mexico, in case I finish everything else. :) And I want to complete the embroidery block I am working on.
A peek into my day...
