As I look outside my window: The rain is moving out for at least a few days. Enjoying the sunshine today.

On my bedside table: Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell; The Philosopher's Flight by Tom Miller (BOTM February)

On my tv this week: J and I watched a few movies including The Mummy and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. So one very boring movie and one very good entertaining movie. 

Listening to: Just lots of podcasts. We haven't been in the car a lot this past week, so no really music listening. Instead, I've been listening to podcasts while the kids play/I cook/Q sometimes naps. 

On the menu for this week:

• Monday - Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Soup
• Tuesday - Kale Caesar Pasta Salad
• Wednesday - Honey Glazed Salmon
• Thursday - Sweet Potato Nachos
• Friday - Leftovers
• Saturday - Spicy Thai Noodles
• Sunday - Irish Whisky Stew

On my to do list: I have some school paper work to take care of, books to read (library due dates coming up soon), friends to check in with, a Costco membership to renew or cancel, books to sell at Half Price Books, and a ton of blog tasks. Next week is Bloggiesta and I have some behind the scenes things to fix on my blog. 

Happening this week:

• Monday - Home day/possible park day if the rain holds out
• Tuesday - Habitot Visit with BART ride (Arthur's super excited as he hasn't ridden the BART in months)
• Wednesday - Errand Day
• Thursday - Playdate at our house
• Friday - ???
• Saturday - Nothing
• Sunday - Book Club

What I am creating: I've been working on my 30 Days of Lists cards, Memory Planner pages for February, and my Week in the Life album. Hoping to finish at least the MP pages and WITL album this week. Also want to get to the April Project Life pages (from 2017).

My simple pleasures: Break n Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies; Peach Ginger Black Tea; the sound of the rain at night; sunny days; library holds list; my pretty planner

Looking around the house: I've been doing weird house projects all last week (cleaning above the fireplace [it's a weird cubby area that became a junk area], tagging the wine). I'm sure I'll find more weird projects for this coming week. I have my eye on doing a closet cleanup (for me), redoing the boys' closet, and cleaning out the hall closet. Guess it's going to be closet week around here.

From the camera: Someone finally figured out how to get in and out of the cars at the play place.
