As I look outside my window: Dark and stormy... just kidding. It's sunny and beautiful outside.

Right now I am: Getting ready to leave for book club.

Thinking and pondering: What should be on the menu plan for next week?

On my bedside table: A big stack of graphic novels, Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan, Breathe by Sarah Crossan, and And Only to Deceive by Tasha Alexander.

On my tv this week: I finally watched Pitch Perfect 2 and promptly cried during the ending... J and I finally watched Spectre. And we caught up with some Full Frontal, Children's Hospital, Shield, and Plebs.

Listening to: Not much this week. Although I get squeeze in a few episodes of Elise Gets Crafty.

On the menu for this week:

• Monday - Black bean stuffed sweet potatoes
• Tuesday - Frozen meals or leftovers
• Wednesday - Pressed Picnic Sandwiches
• Thursday - Beef Stew
• Friday - Leftovers
• Saturday - Burgers on the grill
• Sunday - Nothing planned; hopefully I do't have to cook

On my to do list: Drop off charity books, prep for board meeting, clean the house, finish at least one book, prep for Bout of Books, prep Week in the Life album

Happening this week:

• Monday - Big anatomy scan!
• Tuesday - Oakland Zoo, Charity Drop-off, and Board Meeting
• Wednesday - Potentially park playdate
• Thursday - Children's Fairyland
• Friday - Probably errands
• Saturday - MVPA potluck
• Sunday - Mother's Day which probably means nothing exciting for me

What I am creating: May design team cards. I knocked out five in one day. I have at least four more finish for this month.

My simple pleasures: Ice cream (although it doesn't quite agree with me now), nice pens, comfy clothes, ice water

Looking around the house: The house is constantly in disarray. Ugh.

From the camera:  Looking cute while playing
