(wishing I was fishing!)
Outside my window... Outside my window it is cold outside! I do see daffodil shoots springing up. My thumbs are itching to see if they will become green this year. Two days of heavy rain coming. no yard work yet. I need a few warm dry days.
I am hearing... I am hearing all things sword play upstairs and a kitchen remake show on the tube.
From the learning rooms... From the learning rooms this week, a new concept. . .double digit subtraction. We need to review weight, measurements and money counting. the money counting as it will help him with fractions. We did weigh and measure the student~ 4 ft 3 1/2 inches tall and 60 1/2 pounds. I took 5 shirts and two coats out of his closet this week that are to small!!
(what happened to this baby?)
I am thankful for... I am thankful that I will be seeing #1 son at his boot camp graduation this Friday. The past 8 weeks have gone by quickly for his Daddy and I. I am excited that he is having answered prayer in his life.
From the kitchen... We had pizza for lunch. Daddy is working late, we'll see if there is any pizza leftover for him to snack on. . . I doubt it!
(last nights dinner, before cooking)
(time to wash those dishes)
(sour cream enchiladas)
(left = apple crisp, right = spicy cashew chicken)
(my freezer with some of the meals I made this week.)
I am wearing... Jeans and a 3/4 sleeve navy blue tee. No make up, no fixed hair.
My student is wearing a long striped tee with jeans. No combed hair for him!
I am reading/watching... No further in the book "In a Heartbeat" We bought an Oswald Chambers "My Utmost for His Highest" it is a daily devotional and I will start it soon.
We saw this and it was great! I remember reading all these books when I was young!

ReplyDeleteI miss your cooking. I've eaten a lot of cooking and yours is, by far, my FAVE! You certainly are a busy girl, all that laundry and ironing and cooking. Your #2 is sooooo handsome, as a baby and as a big boy. I suppose it should be no surprise to you that my almost 10 year old is just 64 lbs. Hee-hee! It's in the genes!!Oh my sister. Can I just tell you again how much I miss you and how very desperately I would love for you to live in my neighborhood?
ReplyDeleteoooooohhhh recipes!!!!! For the meatloaf (which looks awesome!!!!!!) and the enchilada's! :)You are a very busy woman! How do you do it all? And with a pretty smile to boot! :)ps: thanks so much for the sweet compliment on my site
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post! I laughed out loud when I read "My thumbs are itching to see if they will become green this year." ☺☺ SO funny! Great job on those freezer meals! That chicken one looks delish!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'm going to have to look up a recipe for sour cream enchiladas. What kind of boot camp is your son in?I have a grandson in the Navy and his younger brother is in the Marines. They both are still in training, but done with boot camp.
ReplyDeleteYou are a busy beaver!
ReplyDelete@ata_grandma - www.betheelou.xanga.com/742459207/terrific-tuesday-with-a-recipeand-menu/a recipe for the enchiladas. Mine are different than that recipe. I'll see if I can post that recipe next week. My recipe is from the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. My son is just finishing up 8 weeks of Coast Guard boot camp. Now he will be on a waiting list for his school. First job in Pascagoula, Misssissippi.
ReplyDelete@mamaof3bugs - Enchiladas (click on the link) I'll try to post another recipe next week. The key to my meatloaf is Lipton Onion Soup mix and lots of extra onions! I also add egg, oatmeal seasonings and a dash of milk sometimes a glob of mayonnaise.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe.
ReplyDelete@betheelou - yes thank you!!!!!
ReplyDeletePraying with love and faith in miracles.
