FOR TODAY Monday April 27, 2009......

Outside my window...

Outside my window today it is dreary. The skies are cloudy and it is only 46F outside. Yesterday the state had severe thunderstorms and tornadoes. The county next to ours (where my son is a sheriff) had a tornado touch down. But all is well!

I am thinking...

I am thinking that warm weather is never going to come!!!!!

I am thankful for...

I am thankful for the safety of my son as he watched the tornadoes and protected his county.

From the learning rooms...

I am so excited for my grandson. We have been working very hard are his grades that were so bad when he came to live with us. Part of the problem was that he wasn't going to school and that no one at home was helping him with the things he was having trouble with. So here are the new grades:

• Math C+.............was F
• Language Arts C.........was D
• Reading C-........was F
• Spelling B-.....was C-

From the kitchen...

I'll be working today so whatever comes from the kitchen will be the creation of my husband

I am wearing...

The usual....scrubs!

I am creating...

I am creating flower beds!

I am going...

I am going to start the list of what I want to buy at the greenhouse.

I am reading...

I am still reading Death in Paradise

I am hoping...

I am hoping that we will soon have warmer weather and I can spend my days off outside.....I sound like a broken record

I am hearing...

I am hearing the birds chirping outside and All My Children inside.

Around the house...

Around the house I got the fish aquarium cleaned yesterday and lots of laundry done.

One of my favorite things...

One of my favorite things is seeing my grandson's confidence in himself grow everyday.

A few plans for the rest of the week:

Same as always: Work on Monday and Wednesday, Justin and Paige here on Tuesday and I have off Thursday and Friday.
