Outside My Window...

The sun is setting, and the trees' few remaining leaves are golden and green. 

I am thinking...

that I need to get out of this funk. 

I am thankful for...

my friends. 

From the kitchen...

spaghetti

To live the liturgy...

Magnificat, Rosary, daily Bible reading.

I am wearing...

an orange ("pumpkin", technically) sweater and brown checked pants. 

I am creating...

not a whole lot. Need to work on that.

I am going to breathe deeply ...

and realize that everything's OK. 

Bringing beauty to my home ...

digging out the apartment after a crazy weekend. 

I am going...

to try to be positive. 

I am reading...

Truth and Tolerance (B XVI); The Kreutzer Sonata and Other Stories (Tolstoy), Pride and Prejudice, and just finished Five for Sorrow, Ten for Joy. 

I am hoping...

for good news. 

I am hearing...

the clock ticking. 

Around the house...

Vacuuming. 

One of my favorite things...

reading.
