Thoughtful Thursday

 

 

 

 

 

Outside my window... The backyard. I can see turtles in the creek.... and a guy mowing.

I am thinking... About my classes for BLAST tomorrow

I am thankful for... A flexible schedule

From the learning room... Most everyone is done with school today. I had a math test this morning.

From the Kitchen... Not much is happening there tonight. The kitchen is usually uneventful nights before BLAST class.

I am wearing... My dark Skinny Kick Jeans, a comfy tee, barefoot, my silver cross ring, "diamond" stud earrings. My hair is straightend.

I am creating... Mmmm. I'm working on a few things...

I am going... Nowhere tonight. I had to go to the college this morning.

I am reading... My bible - psalms, proverbs, and I Peter. I'm not currently reading any books (looking for one to read) but I'm kinda reading a play by Oscar Wilde (same guy who wrote The Importance of Being Ernest) but I can't really get into it...

I am hoping... I can get my classes planned quickly and have a nice evening and an early night.

I am hearing... The lawn mower. Actually, it just stopped. I can hear the kids in the other room.

Around the house...  Everyone is busy doing something. Lots of us aren't home. Most people are getting ready for classes tomorrow.

One of my favorite things... Earl Grey Tea. I'm crazy over it. Did you know its Prince Charles' favorite blend? He has great taste. I need a cup about now...

A few plans for the rest of the week... Tomorrow is BLAST. Saturday is shopping. Sunday is a rest/catch up on unfinished things day. And all the next week is just full of normal week day stuff - school, homework, errands, gym, etc.

Versatile Blogger Award!

I have been award with the Versatile Blogger Award by Britt over at www.encouragementforeverydaystruggles.blogspot.com. By the way, thanks so much, Britt.

I believe what I'm supposed to do is write seven random facts about myself and then award 15 other bloggers. Hm... I'm not sure I follow 15 other blogs but I'll pick a few I do follow.

Here are the facts ~

1. Without a doubt I think horses are God's most amazing creation. They are my favorite animal.
2. I don't really have a favorite color. I always say its blue but really, I can't ever decide.
3. I wish I lived on Galveston Island.
4. Reading is one of my favorite past times but I'm extremely picky about the books I read.
5. Proverbs is currently my favorite book of the Bible. So.Much.Wisdom.
6. I've dissected a whale.
7. I can't bring myself to leave the house without make-up on. Is that bad??

I award ~

Thoughtful Thursday

Outside my window... Actually, I'm at a friend's house in the office and there are no windows in here.

I am thinking... About going home and getting ready for calsses tomorrow.

I am thankful for... The opportunities I have been given to help support my family.

From the learning room... No learning at this house today. =)

From the Kitchen... Nothing at the moment. But lunch was Spanish rice with black beans, corn, tomatoes, and cilantro mixed in. yum.

I am wearing... My new jean shorts (which are amazing), a maroon shirt, two silver rings (one on my ring finger the other on my thumb), silver earings, and once again, no shoes. My hair is loose and crazy.

I am creating... Nothing at the moment.  

I am going... Home is evening. There's no place like it.

I am reading... My bible. I'm finishing up I Chronicles and of course, reading my daily Psalms and Poverbs. Proverbs, by the way, has become my new favorite book of the bible. It talks so much of wisdom - my favorite new topic.  

I am hoping... To get a good nights sleep in my own bed tonight. Not that I don't like sleeping on couches at other peoples houses... ;)  

I am hearing... The air condition and two different tvs. The kids down stairs are watching the second hoodwinked movie and up here in the office the tv is playing Apollo 13. This movie Always.Makes.Me.Cry.

Around the house... The baby and Olivia are on the couch watching tv. The rest of the kids are chilling in the pool or covering the sidewalk in chalky pictures.

One of my favorite things... Really good, and spiritually encouraging blogs. Check out this one: http://www.encouragementforeverydaystruggles.blogspot.com/

A few plans for the rest of the week... Almost nothing! Isn't that exciting?! I have class tomorrow but as far as I know my weekend is free. =)

Until next time,

Juliana.

Thoughtful Thursday

Outside my window... I see the driveway and the trees beyond it. It looks very still outside. There must not be any breeze. I'm sure if I leaned over a bit I could see my horse grazing.

I am thinking... About class tomorrow. Its our second to last BLAST class this year. I'm teaching about horses and services animals. I need to get busy planning...

I am thankful for... Daily Success by IBLP. I have recently signed up for the daily email encouragements. Check it out some time.

From the learning room... Lots of reading and planning going on.

From the Kitchen... Nothing at the moment. But I'm hungry. I wonder who is cooking tonight..?

I am wearing... A pair what I like to call my short safari shorts. Ha. They are just khaki. I'm wearing a maroon t-shirt. On it in yellow letters are the words Ourapostle Jesus Christ. I'm barefoot...again. My hair is twisted up and held in place by a little gold clip.

I am creating... A slideshow for my class tomorrow. Like I said its all about horses. Heh, needless to say I enjoyed making it.

I am going... No where. Thank goodness. Today is a stay at home kind of day.

I am reading... Very few things. From the bible I'm reading through Psalms and Proverbs as always and also I Chronicles. It was named Chronicles for a reason. I'm having trouble getting through all these genealogies... I am also reading a book called George Muller: Delighted in God by Roger Steer. Muller's story is one of my favorites of all time. What a faithful man.

I am hoping... To hurry and finish my lesson plans so I can have the rest of the day free.

I am hearing... The air condition and mumbling voices from the bedroom.

Around the house... It is busy but calm. Everybody is up to something different.
Mostly preparing for tomorrow.

One of my favorite things... The feeling of getting things accomplished.

A few plans for the rest of the week... I haven't really got any set in stone. Tomorrow, of course, is class. But other than that I'm not tied down to doing anything. Though I am planning a fewthings in my head.

Until next time,

Juliana.
