My Daybook

For Today...Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Outside My Window... It is getting dark and is very cold out.

I am thinking... how good the soup we are having smells.

From the learning rooms… started school again Monday after being off two weeks. 

I am thankful for... a warm house and a family.

From the kitchen... we are having ham and lima bean soup for supper. YUM!

I am wearing... a gray shirt and light blue jeans.

I am reading... a Nancy Drew book. 

I am hoping... to watch "I Love Lucy" tonight

I am creating... taking pictures for my A-B See Photo Meme--coming up soon! 

I am hearing... the tv on.

I am going... no where today. 

Around the house...we're getting ready to eat supper

 One of my favorite things... watching "I Love Lucy" episodes with my family.

A Few Plans for the Rest of the Week: getting groceries

Here is a picture thought I am sharing…

My Pets

These are my pets, Murdock and Twinkle. Murdock, my dog, loves the cat, but Twinkle doesn't like him. He tries to slap him and pick fights. He doesn't hurt him though, because he's declawed.

Above: This is Murdock laying on his back on the loveseat.

A-B See Photo Meme

If you would like to join in also, here are the rules...be sure to post them when you join!

1. Post a photo for each letter of the alphabet of anything that starts with that letter.

2. Write a few short explanatory, quirky, or witty sentences about each photo you post.

3. Only post one photo at a time (the meme can take as long as you want - a month, three months, whatever… you aren’t being graded). You can link them later in a blog post so they are listed in order if you are the list-making type.

4. If you want to join the meme, sign the Mr. Linky and use the “A-B See Photo-Meme” graphic in your sidebar. Link your graphic to this post and announce that you will be joining us.

5. When you post a photo, come by and add it to the weekly A-B See linky that we’ll be posting on Foto Fridays for those who have some alphabetical photo to share. You can sign it each week as many times as you have posted photos - one time for each photo linked post. Make sure you link back to the HSBA on your posts, too - so others can come and join the linky.

For more information, see Homeschool Blog Awards.

My Weekend

Yesterday I helped my Dad take Christmas decorations down outside. Then that evening my family and I watched "I Love Lucy" reruns. That's one of my favorite tv shows.

Today  my family and I went to church and then afterwards,  we went to Walmart. Now we are getting ready to eat hotdogs and chips. Later on we might watch more "I Love Lucy".
