Simple Woman’s Daybook – November 5th 2010

FOR TODAY – November 15th 2010

Outside my window...  there is a sea of leaves that I know the girls will have fun playing in.  Maybe tomorrow since it’s quite breezy outside today. 

I am thinking...  about the blog posts that I need to get working on.  Have a few, including one about a psycho cat and it’s not even Jinx, our cat.  

I am thankful for...  the fact that Caty’s T&A is done and she seems to be sleeping better already.  Hoping that she goes back to school tomorrow. 

I am wearing... capris and a t-shirt

I am creating... not much – thinking about gifts the girls can make for the grandparents for Christmas. 

I am going...  out tonight for Bunco with the ladies!

I am reading... The Time Traveler's Wife – by Audrey Niffenegger – hey Jenn G, I’m almost done!  About time huh?  I’ll send it to you when I finish it. 

I am hoping... to win tonight – at least in one of the catergories – most Bunco’s, most wins, most losses or travelor – I don’t really care which one. 

I am hearing... nothing – both girls are napping – YAY!!

Around the house...  not much going on – Caty is now up and watching a show (spoke too soon about the statement above), but Hanna is still napping.

One of my favorite things... is finding really cools apps for my Droid. 

A few plans for the rest of the week…  Bunco tonight; Caty going back to school tomorrow (hopefully); nothing on Wednseday; Thursday night I’m kicking off my birthday weekend by heading out with some girlfriends to hear my friends band, the Chris Gardner Band play; Friday is my birthday and we’re heading to my parents for dinner.  They are going to keep the girls for the night and Scott and I are gonna go and see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.  Saturday morning I have an LPA Officers mtg, then off to get the girls and back home again.  Whew – gonna cram a lot in this week!

A picture that I am sharing... I love these little piggies!

Flashback Friday – November 5th 2010

Here is my Flashback Friday post.  This was in July of 2006.  Caitlyn was 16 months and we were in San Francisco celebrating my Great Aunt Naomi’s 90th birthday.  She’s still doing well – even goes line dancing a few times a week – yes at the age of 94.  Gotta love it!!

I Love the Mountain Air!

One of Caty’s best friends from preschool moved to the Tahoe City for this school year.  We’ve been so busy since they moved in July that we finally made it up for a visit a few weekends ago. 
The entrance to Squaw Valley – where the 1960 Winter Olympics were held.  I skied here a handful of times back in High School – what a resort it is!!

Ready for their sleepover – Caty lasted until about midnight upstairs but then came down and slept with me.

Beautiful Lake Tahoe

 


We had a great time and look forward to our next visit with Farah, Kelly and the kids.
