As I look outside my window: It looks pretty out there, but I know that it’s very very cold this weekend.
Right now I am: Sneaking in a few pages of my book before I need to make brunch.
On my bedside table: Lost in the Moment and Found by Seanan McGuire; The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
On my tv this week: J and I started a rewatch of His Dark Materials S1 and S2 in anticipation of watching S3. I forgot just how much happens in every episode, but it’s just so incredibly good.
Listening to: Not much this week. I’ve been getting back into the swing of things, but that meant more doing and less listening. I did catch up with Love to See It, Pod Save America, and If Books Could Kill.
On the menu for this week:
Monday - Apple Bacon Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Tuesday - Chicken Pad Thai Nachoes
Wednesday - Crab and Asparagus Soup
Thursday - Broccoli Beef with Rice
Friday - Pizza Night
Saturday - Italian Noodle Soup
Sunday - Leftovers
On my to do list: I want to organize some things, read, and do a bit of crafting today. But first, I need to finish making a meal plan and grocery list. I should also review our science plans for the week.
Happening this week:
Monday - Home Day
Tuesday - Coop Board Games Meeting
Wednesday - Science
Thursday - Coop; Lit Society
Friday - Winter Hike at Fontenelle Forest
Saturday - Home Day
Sunday - Dragons and Mythical Beasts at The Orpheum
What I am creating: I finally really started my 2022 December Daily album. I need more photo paper to print images, but I got about 80% of them printed and ready to go. I also picked my paper and base color palette. I’ll be just using my stash instead of buying a new kit. I’ve finished three simple pages, only ~500 to go (exaggeration, but it really feels like that many).
My simple pleasures: A good night’s sleep, being back at coop, fresh homemade bread
Looking around the house: I really should vacuum today. And I need to do laundry and put away the clothes…
From the camera: Winter hike at the OPPD Arboretum with some coop friends. I really enjoy taking walks in the winter, who would have guessed?
