New sofa!

Out my window: Deceptively sunny. It turned off cold last night with the early "winter vortex" moving in.

Clothing myself in: skinny jeans, BCCHS hoodie

Around the apartment: We got a new couch! It's sooooo nice. I like just looking at it. And it's pretty cool in here because we're newly-marrieds wanting to save money, so we're trying to run the fireplace instead of turning on our heat. I did break down today and turn on my little space heater that I used in college. It's helping a bit :-)

The hubby: We went back to Wichita this weekend for his new niece's baptism. Such a lovely time with his side of the family.

In the kitchen: This week will be simple sliders, honey mustard pretzel chicken, and steaks with crushed potatoes. Last night I made some cappuccino cookies, as it had been a while since we had a homemade dessert on hand. In my excitement to make them, I didn't soften the butter quite enough, so they didn't hold together quite as they should have, but they are still yummy!


Crafting: Nothing this week. I need to think up what to make next for putting in my youth group room, and what to have the youth group make with kiddos for tree-selling. Apparently that's a big fundraiser for the parish, every year they sell evergreens and pretty much everyone in the area gets their real tree from the parish. The youth group will help entertain the kids while parents pick out their trees.

Learning: Week 11 for school is:
                                One and Triune God: The person of the Holy Ghost, the name of the Holy Ghost (Love), and the name of the Holy Ghost (Gift)
                                Christology: Christ's unity of being, Christ's unity of will, and the unity of Christ's operation

Reading: Oh school...

Watching: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (which was nice and light-hearted) and Jane Eyre (which was not so nice and light-hearted...it was creepier and more suspenseful than I anticipated).
 
Bringing me joy: baptized niece...one-year olds playing nicely with each other...

Thinking about: always the balancing time thing...hoping to have our priest over for supper soon to bless our apartment

Pictures to share:

Le new couch.
