Friend Makin’ Monday {The Simple Woman’s Daybook}

Outside my window… Is a very cloudy sky, wind…lots of wind and a chance of snow.

I am thinking…. that I can’t wait until April when I can work from home.

I am thankful… for my husband, my two little pups, my family, Starbucks coffee, creamy chocolate Coffee-mate, Friday afternoon naps and being able to lead the life I want to lead.

I am praying… for my sister, nephew, and hubs’ safety on the road.

I am reading… blogs and more blogs, my favorite magazines and a book by Nicholas Sparks.

I am creating… tons of blog designs and Colleen is helping me create my office.

From the kitchen… the smell of Apple Cinnamon

Around the house… I need to finish cleaning up.

One of my favorite things… Grandma brand cookies.

A few plans for the rest of the week… hopefully relax my brain more, finish up laundry, design, watch some TV and hopefully this weekend I can go and pick up my new computer.
