Life Right Now #38

On my bedside table: Looking for Alaska by John Green; various Christmas themed romances

On my tv this week: A bit of Stan Against Evil, Riverdale S1, and lots of dinosaurs!

Listening to: I started a new-to-me podcast about infectious diseases called This Podcast Will Kill You and a new podcast about apocalypse books called The Apocalist. Loving both of them!

On the menu for this week:

  • Monday - Chicken Corden Blue Dip

  • Tuesday - Cheesy Potatoes and Bacon Hash

  • Wednesday - Avocado Bruschetta Chicken

  • Thursday - Leftovers

  • Friday - Apple Cheddar Stuffed Chicken

  • Saturday - Beef Tips

  • Sunday - Chicken Parmesan

On my to do list: Finish Christmas shopping (just a bit left), get the rest of the Christmas cards sent out, book a hotel for our travels, finish a few craft projects, take more December Daily pictures, and other things I’m forgetting…

Happening this week:

  • Monday - Arthur school

  • Tuesday - Romp n Roll classes; Girly Book Club Omaha

  • Wednesday - Arthur school; Grocery shopping

  • Thursday - Visit to Morrill Hall in Lincoln (dinosaurs!!)

  • Friday - Arthur school; Jolly Jam at Romp n Roll

  • Saturday - Arthur Romp n Roll Pirates Class

  • Sunday - Nothing so far

What I am creating: I finished my Christmas cards this past weekend and have started on my December Daily pages. I want to finish out the Family Project Life album before I leave for Indiana on the 21st. I’m currently at Week 41, so I’m shooting for another 8 weeks completed before Christmas. I think I can get this done! I also want to make a few cards using my preorder goodies.

My simple pleasures: Not being super sick (middle of the week sucked), chocolate chip cookies, a bit of crafting time on Saturday, working internet again.

Looking around the house: After the basement flooded again last weekend, we had to haul up everything. Most of it is sitting in piles around the living room. I hope to get that more organized this week.

From the camera: We took a snowy trip to the zoo this past week. At least the jungle building is warm.
