Outside My Window - a lot of snow and more on the way. I haven't seen the dormant grass on my yard in awhile. The weatherman predicted up to 8 inches of snow. I wouldn't mind another snow day.
I'm Wearing - gray velvet fleece leggings, hooded tunic, cabin socks, gaiter doubling as headband. Another Ohio winter uniform on this cold holiday Monday.
I'm Listening To - the laundry spin cycle. Which means my house is unusually silent for having all five kids at home and a husband who is off from work. Maybe I should check in and see what quiet mischief they are all working on hahaha
I'm Reading - and finished Hallie Lord's new book. I've decided to support some of my favorite gals even if their story does not always resonate with me. And Hallie is one of those people. We have a few things in common but something about her mix of joy, candor, and melancholy is something I appreciate. If nothing else, it opens me up to something new and my prayer life is all the more enriched by it.
I'm Looking Forward To - LENT. That's all there is to say about that.
I'm Pondering - how almost ironic that leading up to the feast of St. Valentine's, I have gotten prayer requests for floundering marriages and relationships. It always breaks my heart a little when marriages are hurting. I think as Christians we all share in the devastation of a broken sacrament.
I'm Praying - for all marriages, floundering or flourishing.
What's Cooking - a Filipino style stew with bone marrow and veggies and all the good things to warm cold bodies. Planning the usual Mardi Gras feast for tomorrow so lots of baking and bacon!
Mom Treat - a Winter hike. It's good for both body and soul.
