Time // 5:30 a.m.
Place // my desk at home.
Eating // refrigerator oatmeal.
Drinking // coffee.
Watching // nothing at all lately.
Reading // Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin.
Wanting // to build up a stash of note cards and be more diligent about sending them for birthdays, anniversaries, and just for fun.
Thinking // about how glad I am that David is home from his trip. Single parenting is exhausting!
Creating // cards for Mother’s Day, a cross stitch about a quarter of the way finished that I’ve kind of stalled out on, and am ready to start sewing my quilt.
Hoping // to make a trip to the garden center over the weekend and bring home a bunch of house plants.
Needing // to figure out my next Bible study method since I just finished one (Beth Moore’s It’s Tough Being A Woman) and maybe find a partner (virtual or otherwise) for it. Also, more stripes in my wardrobe. And more pairs of scrubs.
Anticipating // seeing The Great Gatsby tonight with a good friend who I haven’t seen in awhile, and the arrival of my first PopSugar Must Have box that should be here today or tomorrow.
Happy Friday!
From Amanda:
Argh, Beth Moore is my super-fave. When I was pregnant with the twins and too big to move off the couch I would sit and watch her videos on the Life Outreach International website over and over and over. Her hair is The Most Perfect.
From kapachino:
She’s so great. Since her home church is near me I’ve been able to attend her studies live and it’s amazing, but I haven’t gone since I had a kid because it takes up the entire evening & after working all day it’s just too exhausting. So I do her workbooks on my own. :)
From lauren w:
I really want to have a stash of cards too! And I hope you love Gatsby, I sure did!
From kapachino:
I only wish the cards that I loved were cheaper! A pretty letterpressed card runs $3-5. :(
From Nora:
I have a stash of cards, I just need to actually send them. I’m bad about that lately!
From Stephany:
I love Beth Moore to bits & pieces. Her studies are always the best! I just love the way she talks about Jesus.
And, um, I’m totally up for having a Bible study partner. Maybe we could get some girls and do a Google hangout once a week or every other week? Just throwing it out there… I need more accountability with my Bible study life for sure.
From kapachino:
That sounds like a fun idea for a Bible study group! It is hard for me to find alone time for an internet chat but I would try! I do my Bible study at like 5:30am and I’m sure no one would want to chat then. :)
