Today...

I'm feeling:
better than I have been since Sunday. I woke up with a cold Sunday morning that hit me like a freight train and has had me down the past couple of days. Also feeling pudgy- word to the wise, don't buy the chocolate-dipped pretzels at Costco unless you have any sort of willpower, which I have proven to myself since I purchased them Saturday that I do not. Luckily they are now gone and I don't have to prove my lack of willpower any longer.

I'm trying:
to gather my thoughts for Relief Society board meeting tonight. To continue my organization/de-cluttering binge (which is laughable if you could currently see my house and the toys strewn about and overall mess). To get inspired about what to make for dinner tonight. To be a little more patient than I was this morning.

I'm enjoying:
the sunshine out my window. Even though it's still blasted cold, sunshine is a welcome site over the gray days we've seen for so long.

I'm hoping:
that Pat gets home on time tonight. That I can find more quiet moments to plan and ponder. That Sam will gain a few pounds. That I will lose a few. That Addie will always open up to me the way she does now. That our last tax statement will come soon and we can hopefully find ourselves with at least a small refund.
