~~It's Thursday~~

Outside My Window~  Outside my window it's rainy and it's cold.  I think winter has arrived in NJ.  I wore my heavy winter coat twice this week.  The rain will make the leaves come off the trees even more.  If you saw my facebook page, you'll know my front yard was busy on Monday night when an out of control car drove through our yard.  He took out a road construction sign, our trash cans and hit the back fender/quarter panel/tail light area of my husbands police/work car.  The out of control car ended up two houses down and across the street.  His car came to a stop after hitting a power pole.  Would you believe, he walked away from the accident?  He did.  AMAZING.  He told the police he thought something jumped out in front of him.  We wonder if he was asleep, or his phone jumped in front of him.  It was exciting to say the least.  We do not let our young son or our dog play out in the front yard just because of the terrible traffic out there.  I was wishing the other night I would have taken pictures.  Sorry, no pictures!

Around The House~ My house is quiet and put together.  I need to run the vacuum around here and there.  We are starting to track leaves inside from the outside on our shoes.  Smelling a good candle. . .'Spice Cake' from the Wal Mart BHG collection.

I Am Praying~  May I say, I am still happy and rejoicing over two answered prayers this week.  I think it's amazing that God will give me something I've been praying for and show me clearly that he answered my prayer.

Philippians 4: 6-7  "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep you hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

From The Leaning Room~  Compound words, measurement with a ruler, spelling

I Am Wearing~  I am sporting a new haircut!  I got my sister in law to trim about 3 inches of the length of my hair and shape it a bit.



This is the look I was going for.  I definitely have to flat iron my hair for this.


My hair is super fine.  That's the pile when she was done.


wet look

straight and ready for church Sunday morning


I Am Creating~  I've been inspired to update the layout on my blog.  I may draw a picture for my blog header similar to this one~

 
From the Kitchen~  Parmesan baked cod, rice a roni, with garlic broccoli and maybe a pear salad

I Am Enjoying~  Several years ago I found  David Nevue music. 




I really adore instrumental piano music of any kind.  His is GREAT music.  I've asked for 5 cd's for Christmas.  Check out these links to his blog and his music page.  Maybe someday I'll get to go to a concert of his. . .(big sigh)
