Reading: I just picked up I Owe You One last night. I’ve read three of her novels so far this year, and am hooked. They are so lighthearted and funny. Though, Surprise Me was a little more serious, but still fantastic. I’m also doing the Women of Courage Bible study. (If you are local, the library is having a book sale on Saturday!)
Eating: This week, I’ve been eating a Perfect Bar for breakfast. I heat up some kind of leftover for lunch each day. And, dinner is usually reheated leftovers since I’m working. Thrilling, I know. Today, I’m making egg noodles from scratch for the rest of the family to have for dinner. They are so yummy.
Thinking about: My grandparents. Hospice has been involved, and for some reason it just feels really heavy today. They both have been very sick for quite some time, but now it feels different. We used to go camping with them and play board games. Scott and I lived in Springfield, MO and would drive up to Jeff City and spend the day with them frequently. We’d play games, eat, and just enjoy their company. I remember a time that my mom drove over to cook and freeze a ton of meals for them. I drove up since I was close. It was a fun day. We didn’t get to see them much once we moved to Michigan. Now that we are 2 1/2 hours away from the nursing home they’re in, we’ve gone to see them as much as possible. My kids have grown to love them a ton. I pray that we get a day to go down and see them soon. Grandpa caught the flu, so we can’t see them this weekend like I hoped.
Looking forward to: Spring!!! February is always so grey and dreary. It’s depressing. I’m ready for SUNSHINE! I need it. We all do, right? I’m ready for the bright colors. I’m ready for blooming flowers. I’m most excited about getting our garden started! I can’t wait to get my hands in the dirt.
Watching: I don’t watch much. I started watching Once Upon a Time again when I was home from church with a sick kiddo. I used to love that show. I’m also hoping to watch Little Women this weekend. Scott bought the book for me, and I don’t think I’ve ever read it or seen the movie. I KNOW! I also just saw that there’s a show on Amazon. Have any of you watched that? The reviews are pretty divided.
I’d love for you to leave your responses in the comments. I love hearing what others are reading!
