Surprise Cemeteries

Taking the side roads, loving the conversation as we find surprise cemeteries, the lightning rod house, and the treason carcass.

And then the dinner and meditation magic.
Life is good.

Super Blue Blood Snow Moon

I hit the steam room this morning to settle and meditate before going out to watch the full moon rise before the eclipse.

The washboard clouds parted just in time to be bathed by the moonlight, so strong that I could see my shadow on the wall behind me.

Happy Super Blue Blood Snow Moon.

May your path be revealed in the darkening of the light.

Happy Monday

The weather in my neck of the woods:
Mild and in the mid-50s. Ethan calls it June-uary.

Things that make me happy:
Knitting, playing cards or hanging out with the boys, lunchtime with coworkers.

Book I'm reading:
I have been (*gasp!*) too tired to read lately. I have The Red Pyramid and The Hunger Games in the queue. It doesn't help that The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is a seriously tough act to follow.

What's on my TV today:
Veronica Mars

On the menu for dinner:
Leftover Chinese. I'm just not up for cooking.

On my To Do List:
Find freezer recipes, buy ingredients for cooking for the coming month, clean out the jeep and install baby seat.

New recipe I tried or want to try soon:
Cinnamon Rolls
Pizza Crazy Bread
Tangy Beef Stroganoff

In the craft basket:
The baby blanket (border still isn't finished)
The boys' sweaters (I'm running out of yarn and they still don't have sleeves)

Looking forward to this week:
Ob appointment, Chinese New Year

Tips and Tricks:
Buy as many pages of the current Forever Stamp as possible.
Keep forever stamps and a few envelopes in your wallet or everyday bag.

My favorite blog post this week:
A co-worker's status: "Some people are like slinkies. They aren't worth much, but they do make you smile when you push them down the stairs."

Blog Hopping:
Full Bellies, Happy Kids

No words needed:


Lesson learned the past few days:
Do not play Magic the Gathering with Ethan. He is really, really good at it.

On my mind:
How to afford a lawyer
Missing my farm

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
A perennial favorite:
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.-- 1 Chronicles 16:34
