I was up late, finishing reading "On The Come Up," thus now benefitting from the full pot of coffee as I go through my to-do list for the day. What else am I currently up to?
Watching... the sky for the
forecasted snow - tomorrow! Can you believe it? More snow, post-vernal
equinox. Is that really allowed?
Shopping for... silver shoes and dresses to celebrate my upcoming 25th anniversary in my sorority. Doesn't it always seem impossible to find the perfect dress when you need it? Any other time, there's great silver shoes all over the place. What milestones or special events are you celebrating?
Planning... spring break. It's coming soon and we're debating on a way down south where it's warm trip (and thinking about the price of 6 airplane tickets), a road trip (but anywhere far & drivable is still cold), or a relaxing, low-frills eastern shore trip (a couple hours drive & we can take the dog). In the meantime, I'm piling up books to read and a crochet project.
Selling... the last of these Girl Scout cookies! Do-Si-Dos anyone? Whatever's left, I can always bake into these yummy brownies.
Hoping... that the DC Police or somebody find this missing 8-year old girl, alive and well. And that someone have a serious sit-down with her mother about grown men who befriend your daughter and offer to let them stay at their home, without you. And that this be a lesson to other mothers who don't see the blaring, flashing red flags when a grown man you barely know brings your young child gifts. It's a scary thought, I know, that you can't accept everyone's generosity at face value as genuine and sincere. Unfortunately, there are sick people out there who prey on the defenseless and vulnerable. It is our duty as parents to protect our children, even if that means being a little over-protective sometimes.
What are you currently up to?
