As I look outside my window: Most of the snow from Friday night has melted, at least on the concrete. The boys wanted to build a snowman, but it’s too sparse and wet for that now. They were a bit disappointed.

Right now I am: Planning my experiments for circuits theme for coop on Thursday. We are going to make graphite circuits and a lemon battery.

Thinking and pondering: What all do I need to get done before traveling this Christmas? I swear my to-do is so scattered right now.

On my bedside table: Well Matched by Jen DeLuca; lots more holiday romances

On my tv this week: We watched a few movies and documentaries this week, plus we finally started The Great. Hilarious!

Listening to: Holly on Sirius XM all the time now! It’s officially Christmas music time.

On the menu for this week:

Monday - Italian Beef Sandwiches
Tuesday - Apple Bacon Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Wednesday - Pomegranate Chicken
Thursday - Leftovers
Friday - Mongolian Beef
Saturday - Avocado, Bruschetta Chicken
Sunday - Shrimp Scampi Pasta

On my to do list: Oh so many little things! But most of all, I need to clean off my desk and put away my Christmas card supplies.

Happening this week:

Monday - Regular School Day
Tuesday - Movie Afternoon (We’re going to see Encanto)
Wednesday - Park Playdate Morning; Musicals Bingo
Thursday - Coop
Friday - Regular School Day
Saturday - House Cleaning; D&D
Sunday - More House Cleaning and Packing

What I am creating: I want to make about 4 more Christmas cards to have on hand for neighbors and such. Once that’s done (maybe this afternoon), I need to clean off my desk and get prepping for homeschool next semester. Or I might take a look at my memory planner first…

My simple pleasures: Good gatherings with friends. We had our book club book and bottle exchange last night and it was so lovely to hang out with people again. And I got a book that has been on my TBR list, so yeah me!

Looking around the house: Things are okay, but I do need to get the kitchen in order today and clear off the counter to prep for the coop holiday party on the 20th.

From the camera: I chopped my hair off this week! Feels so much better and it curls much easier now.
