Work, family and fun.

Soaking wet leaves blanketed the ground, streets, and sidewalks this morning. Last night's rain left most of the trees naked. The sky was awfully grey today and the rain continued to drip all over. The dreary part of Fall is almost inspiring, as long as it doesn't last too long.

Work flew by, which seems to be the norm at my new place. I'll accept it. I love that there is something new everyday! Today felt like a holiday as I opened the box that held my new computer. My hands were full with setting up the new workspace, some paperwork, inspiration for the newest project and communications with print companies. Oh the day in the life of an administrative assistant. This is definitely for me.

The Miller's (including Maddi) shared our evening with Grandma's Diane, which also flew by. Maddi is learning so much in school she can't get the words out of her mouth quick enough to tell us about: Lake Superior, math problems with two or more signs in them and how she helped her teacher at conferences and was rewarded with four pieces of candy. Maddi's personality grows every time I see her.

To make things a bit more fun tonight I started a story telling game. It was definitely fun and might have turned into something even better. Now, R, M, E, Grandma and I are cooking up a little something that could be pretty neat for all of us. I can't say much further. You'll have to wait and see if the (BIG) little something turns out as planned. But for now we have an interesting, fun way to spend our Wednesdays with Maddi.

Keep loving.

Plans for a Sunny Day

Thunderstorms last night make the sunshine this morning that much better. Blue skies, slight breeze and birds singing. It is pretty much picture perfect. It inspires me. I want to run around the apartment and clean and reorganize every nook and cranny. Then I want to squeeze in a bit of time for crafting; maybe some card making, crocheting and there are these cute little wire trees I want to make. I also want to take advantage of this picture perfect weather and take my girls to the park.

The majority of these things are a big MAYBE. Except for going to the park, which is perfectly okay with me. After breakfast and showers I fully intend on putting the girls in the car and going to the Imagination Station. I want to push Edee in a swing and let Maddi run and jump and play.

I think I'll pack snacks and drinks just in case we are there for awhile.

It shall be a great day.

Keep Loving.
