Outside my Window…it looks like it is deciding to either clear up or storm, cloudy on half the sky and blue with light clouds on the other!

I am thinking…I don’t want summer to end! Although I am happy that the kids are back to regular cross country practices.

I am thankful … for my parish which celebrated its 80th anniversary yesterday with a picnic. Our new pastor seranaded the croud with his accordian – that’s something you don’t see everyday!

From the kitchen…not sure yet. I have to see what groceries Mr. Pete picked up yesterday.

I am creating…a stronger body! I have 5 pounds to lose before the end of summer. I think I can make it!

I am going…type and do laundry and order some more homeschool supplies!

I am wearing…Black shorts and my favorite maroon T-shirt.

I am reading…the The Ultimate Guide to Homeschooling (3rd Edition) It’s one of the most encouraging books I’ve read in a while, although I don’t agree with some of her stuff on the high school level.

I am hoping…to have a fulfilling homeschool preparation week and blog about it here. I also hope to finish up my homeschool blog, One Day at a Time, in preparation for our review.

I am hearing… amazing silence!  and still thinking about waking up next to Lake Michigan last week!

Around the house…still working on that basement! This will be a summer project!

One of my favorite things…watching Gabe grow into a delightful young man!

Here is a picture thought I am sharing for you…   Grandma and Sam talking in her garden.
