Simple Woman's Daybook 11/17/08

FOR TODAY, November 17...
Outside my window... the sun is illuminating the edges of the storm clouds--amazing! It's cold today, and wet. A good day to stay in! (If only....)
I am thinking... that if this Psycho Kitty jumps up on my scrap table and knocks everything off ONE MORE TIME, I'll hog-tie him and lock him in the bathroom. Oh, yippee...he just knocked his food dish off the counter. I guess I'll go clean up broken glass and cat food now.
I am thankful for... our four pets, because the six kids have lost their touch at keeping me on my toes--I needed a new challenge!
From the kitchen... the "try something new" theme for today has me stumped. I'm probably going to be surfing the 'net for a while looking for something new to cook tonight.
I am wearing... jeans and a black tee, which is now embellished with baby spit-up. Eww!
I am creating... still more scrapbook pages. Kinda got derailed over the weekend when the fourth round of this cold hit its worst.
I am going... grocery shopping later on today. With five girls. Pray for me?
I am reading... Max Lucado's 'Cast of Characters'. Good read. He has a way with words. Too bad he has a bad habit of watering down doctrine.
I am hoping... that this cough doesn't turn into bronchitis again, that was not a pleasant experience.
I am hearing... Sesame Street. Dani's favorite. It'll soon be turned off so we can DO something instead of just sit in front of screens (me included).
Around the house... the laundry is done for once. I just need to find Pete's missing PT uniform. Haven't seen it....maybe it got so stinky it ran away?
One of my favorite things... hot coffee and a warm Krispy Kreme glazed donut. Healthy? Not on your life, but you only live once, right?
A few plans for the rest of the week: Getting my Thanksgiving shopping done and cleaning up the parts of the house that need it so I'm not scrambling to clean while trying to get all the cooking done next week!
Here is picture thought I am sharing... of Psycho Kitty Ty, making it VERY difficult for me to wash my hands after spraying off a [cloth] diaper.Peggy, "The Simple Woman", has a new blog just for Daybooks! Go see!

I would think that there would be an easy way to get the cat to move since you have to turn on the water to wash your hands anyway... [smirk].

You'd THINK Psycho Kitty would be deterred by aforementioned faucet...but alas, he likes to play in it!

Enjoyed your daybook. My hat is off to anyone who has six kids and finds time to scrap! I only have three and not much scrapping gets done here! (and mine are teens!)
