Lauri's Daybook

FOR TODAY...  Monday, Sept. 20, 2010

Outside my window...  Dark & quiet still.  It is 6:21 a.m. & the business of the day is getting ready to start.

I am thinking...  About my cousin Steve, who is having a kidney removed today, because he has kidney cancer & the tumor is now bigger then his kidney's.  This will be a tough surgery because he also has a very weak heart.  Please keep my family in your prayers.

I am thankful for...  My DH making it to St. Louis safe & sound.  He will be gone until Sat. afternoon.  Please watch over my honey, dear God.

From the learning rooms...  the usual, homework.

From the kitchen...  Breakfast will be waffles, lunch will be a sandwiches, and dinner is lasagna with garlic bread sticks & a salad.  Yummy.

I am wearing...  Knit capri pants & t-shirt.

I am creating...  A workout scheduled.  Gotta get serious & moving.

I am going...  Not too many places.  Just taking kids to school, then to the store, pick kids back up from school & later to practices.  Ok, so maybe that is quite a few places.

I am reading...  Same ol' stuff.  Blogs & Debbie McComber's Cedar Cove Series.

I am hoping...  That my DH has a safe & good work week in St. Louis.  And that my cousins surgery is successful.

I am hearing...  The humming of the computer & the TV in the background.

Around the house...  Need to do my weekly cleaning & some laundry.

One of my favorite things...  Fall time.  Love the smell of leaves turning, love the quietness & crispness/coolness of the mornings.  Love watching the sun come down in the cooler evenings, sitting outside. 

A few plans for the rest of the week...  Homework & dinner (at home) every night.  Tonight, J-Bird has cheer practice & BMX Kid has baseball practice.  Tuesday, J-Bird has tumbling practice for cheer.  Wed, Bubba & Big O have Religious Ed classes (J-Bird goes on Sundays) & BMX Kid has a baseball game.  Thurs. J-Bird has competition practice.  Friday, is family time.  Saturday, J-Bird has to cheer at a football game & BMX Kid will probably have a race that evening.  Sunday, church, lunch, baseball game, & later J-Bird has competition practice.
Wow, I am tired now, after typing all that we have to do this week.  Sept. & Oct are busy months for two of the kids with sports, but they love it. 

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...  Sending lots of prayer request to our Lord today for loved ones.  Please Dear God, watch over all of them.
