As I look outside my window: The sun is shining into my dining room, but don’t be fooled, it’s only 29 degrees out there right now…

Right now I am: Finishing breakfast, then planning on a shower before the delivery people come with our new stove. The control board on our current one is shorting out and I can’t use the oven at all. I didn’t realize how much I use our oven until I couldn’t. No baking at all this week!

On my bedside table: The Royal We by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan; Monstress Vol. 3

On my tv this week: Lots of The Good Place, Stan Against Evil, It’s Always Sunny, and GBBO.

Listening to: Catching up on some podcasts and lots of Nothing More

On my to do list: I still need to get to the DMV soon to get a NE license. I’m planning on getting the boys’ haircuts tomorrow. And the big task is navigating Aetna’s website to find new doctors, dentists, and eye doctors for the family. Not looking forward to that task.

What I am creating: Christmas cards!!! I have about half of them done, but now I want to switch up the designs a bit. I’ve got a few ideas pinned that I can take elements from.

My simple pleasures: Watching the snow come down (not so much going out in it), theater date with Arthur, magazines in my mailbox, having a great library system again.

Looking around the house: Things are coming together. The theater is mostly put together, but I do need to figure out what to do about the weird area by the fireplace. The master is mostly put away. I need to finish my craft area and move boxes around in the garage so I can park in there.

From the camera: The scene outside on Friday…
