For Today...

By -
I borrowed this idea from my friend Laurie over at Thru My Cottage Door.
FOR TODAY


Outside my window... blue skies, sunshine and melting snow!

I am thinking... My trip to Florida is going to be wonderful and relaxing!

I am thankful for... So much! I am beyond blessed.

From the kitchen... I am going to attempt to make Pumpkin Butter for someone special.

I am wearing... Dark jeans, black cami, black cardigan, bright yellow scarf, big white flower cut-out earrings, yellow flats.

I am creating... felt, fabric and ribbon pins.

I am going... to dinner tonight and enjoying lots of Mexican goodness & margaritas.

I am reading... Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, by Jaime Ford

I am hoping... That it works out to take a road trip this summer to visit my friends in Michigan and then on to New England!

I am hearing... Pandora Radio, Swoon by Imogen Heap.

Around the house... Easter\Spring decorations waiting to be put up.

One of my favorite things... Fresh flowers on my desk at work. It makes the day so much better.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Spending time with T, hanging with my brother and a birthday party!

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
