Outside My Window ...Early. Still. Dark. Wonderful.
***
I am listening to...quiet.
***
To Live the Liturgy...Mass this week to celebrate the Solemnity of Mary, The Mother of God, Vigil Mass on Saturday. We'll also be at a Conference one day this week and they have daily Mass offered. Excellent! I'm also looking into ways we can celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas. Kim posted a link to Faith and Family Live which has some ideas.
***
To be Fit and Happy...Hopefully some good walk time in, dependent on the weather. I also found a fun workout via Instant Watch on Netflix I think I'll be doing. A Burn and Firm Pilates. More low-impact, but it definitely got my heart rate up.
***
I am thankful for...the prayers of so many for us this past week.
***
From the kitchen ... Hospitality! We have several different groups coming to stay with us this week: Family, Friends and Strangers (soon to be friends), so our fridge is pretty full and I'm planning large meals to feed a crowd.
***
I am wearing...still in my pj's right now, but soon to check the weather forecast and decide based on chance of rain.
***
I am creating ...order. We have new things to find homes for--Christmas gifts, and lots of tidying to do before the first group (DH's parents and sister) arrive later today.
***
I am reading...Just finished three books by Georgette Heyer after coming across a suggestion. But I can't remember for the life of me who suggested her!
***
I am hoping for...Pearl's cold to move on quickly. Poor girl is very drippy and wheezy at night.
***
On Keeping Home ... Lots of tidying and decluttering. A full house is soon upon us, so I need to brew some coffee and get into action!
***
One of my favorite things ... Witnessing Pearl's excitement as she looks at Christmas Lights. We drove through a few neighborhoods and her mouth was perpetually in the O shape as she kept saying "woah" in her soft baby voice. Precious!

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:
GUESTS!
