I'm feeling like I'm needing a little structure to my random-thoughts posts, so I'm going to borrow this format from Every Day is a Gift and see how it goes!
Out my window: Sunny, mild, and clear skies. After a cool day yesterday, today feels a lot more fall-ish.
Clothing myself in: Mass clothes still...black pants (I usually wear skirts since I wear pants throughout the week and I get super tired of pants, so Sunday is my day to switch things up, but today it's just what I opted for), blue shirt with grey sweater
Around the apartment: I made a bit of a mess while Matt was gone on business, so I cleaned up before he got back, so hopefully it stays that way through this week...homework is always easier to handle when my mind isn't on how much of a destruction zone the living room/dining room have become.
The hubby: just got back yesterday from a business trip to Grand Rapids. He had the night shift, so his sleep schedule has to be readjusted. I went to GP for a wedding of a childhood friend, and when I got back at 9pm last night he had been asleep since 4pm, and still slept through the night. Hopefully today he'll be able to relax and recover!
In the kitchen: I would've gone shopping on Wednesday, as it had been a week since my last shopping trip, but since Matt was gone and I had plenty of leftovers, I decided to stretch out our grocery budget through the end of the month so that I can start fresh this month. Last week I made some chicken tetrazini and cheese-filled burgers with bbq ranch sauce, this week is still in the planning stage, but possibly a crockpot chicken with stuffing and three envelope crockpot roast beef...things are always subject to change, based on what I see in the store for sale/what I know I can make from it.
Crafting: I was going to wear a poodle skirt from 7th grade (that still fits...) for Halloween, but since I knew (a) I wouldn't be with the kiddos during their party (I worked in the afternoon after their nap) and (b) I'd be running errands after work, I opted for comfort and put together a last minute Rosie the Riveter outfit. Does that count? Oh, I did have my youth group help me make some easy fall crafts, and I had pictures on my phone, but then my phone went kaput and the pictures are no more, or at least I have no idea how I would recover them.
Learning: Week 11 for school is:
One and Triune God: The person of the Father, the person of the Son, and "the Image"
Christology: "Things which are applicable to Christ in His being and becoming" and the Nativity.
Reading: This list is pretty short usually since I do so much for school, but I did just start Sense and Sensibility, which I skimmed through in high school. I'll also be doing a lit review for volunteering at the CPB on conflict of interest and public/private partnerships in the bioethics field.
Watching: This week with Matt gone I watched a bit more than usual...the last games of the World Series (major bummer, but still proud of them), Fox and the Hound, Sense and Sensibility to go along with my reading, and Grease, along with a couple episodes of the Twilight Zone.
Bringing me joy: Having Matt back, seeing a childhood friend get married, getting asked to be a bridesmaid for another lovely friend, good conversation with my parents who graciously picked me up and brought me back to GP for the wedding
Thinking about: how I can possibly stir interest in my youth group/get them to actually respond to communications so I can effectively plan events, how to balance time, grocery shopping trip looming
Pictures to share: ugh, I never take pictures, so maybe this will spur me to take more pictures, but for now you get nada.
