For Today, November 6, 2012...

Outside my window...it's overcast and humid.  A cold front is coming through tonight, which means humidity will be up a bit and we might get some rain before the evening.

I am thinking...of the election, and who will win.  I know one thing for sure:  no matter what the outcome, God is in control.

I am thankful for...the honor and privilege of voting for the candidate that best reflects my own values.

I am going...to vote today!  Just waiting for mid-morning when, hopefully, there will be a shorter line.

I am wearing...a mint green top, green skirt, and flip-flops.  It's 74 degrees out, comfortable even though it's a bit humid.

I am noticing...the night light that's still on.  I need to turn that off.

In the kitchen...easy chicken and stuffing in the crock pot.

I am creating...a stash of Christmas presents in my closet.  No peeking!

I am reading...still on Unglued by Lysa TerKeurst.  I'm reading it as a study so I'm taking my time.

I am hoping...I can find some jeans for my son who is growing faster than I can keep up.

I am looking forward to...the end of the elections, which means no more political ads!  They make me sick!

I am hearing...my son playing a video game and my daughter practicing on her guitar.

Around the house...everything is in pretty good order.

A favorite quote of the day...“In short, ours is a peculiar country with a unique history.  What is best in America can be traced back to our Judeo-Christian heritage.  What is problematic in our nation is our departure from that heritage.”- Dr. David Gibbs Jr. (from the book “One Nation Under God”).

One of my favorite things...crock pot cooking.  Whoever invented the crock pot, Thank you!!

A few plans for the rest of the week...voting today, Awana tomorrow, and that's all that's planned right now.
