For The Joy of It

Last night as I tried to sleep I focused on things that bring me joy. So today I've continued my mental list and decided it is time to write it down.

Memories from childhood: playing jacks, learning Chinese jump rope, Cat's cradle, tiddly winks and caroms. Oh and marbles. To this day I still love marbles. Getting a blue two wheeler for my 7th birthday and riding it all over Sandia Air Force Base in New Mexico

Memories of homeschooling two girls: Dress up days as princesses or fairies and photo shoots.
Kite flying at the beach. Going to children's museums.  Science experiments with bubbles and leaves.
Learning to draw and paint. Lucky the rabbit.

The dogs: Lolly, Margo, Gypsy, Ginger and Boo-boo

The cats: Sylvester, Inky-Dinky, Harlequin, Puff, Tigger, Crispy Critters

Our first snow of winter came on New Year's Eve.

Blog Musing: Four Chickens

Four chickens looking for action.

Date: 11/13/14 10:12 A.M. Gusty out. 

Mood: I have mixed emotions today. Sad that my bf is sick. Frustrated that I don't have a car. Happy that I'm knitting a new sweater. Worried because I'm behind on Nanowrimo.

Eats: I whipped up french toast for breakfast.

Fitness: There's that F word again.

Musing:Where did the year go and how can I be almost 57? That's just wrong.

Reading: So happy I finished Faery Reels last night and returned it. The library had the other book I had to re-request. Can't wait to dive back into that one.

Fashion Update: If I could only wear one fashion category the rest of my life, it would have to be boho/gypsy
  

Fun Facts About Me: I like monkeys, esp. spider monkeys.

Mood:  Productive. I can't wait to get started on things.

Eats:  I just made one of my favorite breakfasts: Bacon with fried eggs over hashbrowns. Yummy.

Fitness: Yesterday turned out to be more sitting than walking. Today I have yard work so that should burn some calories.

Musing: Music was very entertaining. I love the stories the director shares. He's 72 so he's had a lot of time to collect stories. He also has a Bachelors and a Masters in music.

Reading: Now reading The Accidental Genie by Dakota Cassidy. I think it would make a great Sit-com.
 See my book blog at 51 Books a Year

Fun Fact about me: All my life I've wanted chickens but for some reason my mother hated them. Now I  have six chickens. I think one just laid an egg. Go chickens!
