Outside my window… It’s sunny and warm. I can see the entire northeast side of the city and the forest north of here.
I am thinking… that I might have been all wrong about what I needed in order to be content.
I am hearing… Tessa fussing a bit. Hoping those teeth pop through soon.
Some highlights from the week… Our pastor and his wife coming to our little apartment to talk about worship ministry. Nick’s playing Sunday morning, and my turn will be in a few weeks.
Watching my kids learn to use their floaties in the swimming pool.
Unpacking the place, one box at a time. Every one feels like a major accomplishment.
I am thankful for… a place to live. God knew what we really needed.
A church experience that I’d about given up on.
The ability to get my teeth fixed.
From the kitchen… I’ve cut back quite a bit on the food projects since the move. I’ve been craving simplicity, and just haven’t had time or space to do lots of experimenting. Had to restart my sourdough starter, and have that working again. Doing water kefir still. But bread baking, and any meals except very simple ones have not happened. I think I’ll get back to them, but I’m not feeling any sense of urgency to do so at the moment.
I am wearing… white capris and a green shirt I got for my birthday.
I am reading…started The Secret Garden with the girls yesterday. I have no idea if they’ll stick with me through it, but it starts a little slow so I’ll push through for now. It’s one of my all-time favorites, and I decided I couldn’t wait anymore to try it with them.
I am hoping… to get our deposit back from our landlord soon. I always feel like we have to hold our breath until that happens. We left the place far better than we found it, but there’s no guarantee people won’t do weird stuff.
One of my favorite things… Honestly, reading my Bible on my iphone. Oh, and listening to Nick play guitar again for the first time in a long time.
A few plans for the rest of the week… a playdate…I’m long overdue to see so many of my friends, but we’re pretty tired from this past month. Hoping I can get back in touch with more people soon.
Meeting Nick’s sister in Denver on Saturday. Maggiano’s (yummy!) and a trip to Chuck e. Cheese to play. Should be fun!
Haven’t taken any pictures the past couple weeks. Have to get back to that!
Have a good week!

Where are you all going to church?
