I opened the door to the parcel lady at about 11, brrrr.

Things that make me happy:
We got a lawn mower I found one day on the computer, and my son got one of the flats I found (he may have too, not sure) on the computer the same day. We will take our son home to his new flat soon, though I may stay home, may be in the way shifting

Book I am reading:
in between books, finished A Word To The End Time Church last week

What I am enjoying on TV:
Wife Swap USA, I had to watch it and sit by the heater to warm up

On the menu for dinner:
Chickpea Burgers with Raita

On my To Do list:
to work out if I can afford to go to family reunion, chiropractor, Leeton, and the kids to church camp, though I think I am committed now anyway lol, oh and to buy a new outfit perhaps, I have been putting it off

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
Coriander & Corn Omelette Rolls

In the craft basket:
We have to hang some curtains, though I am trying not to alter them, an ebay purchase. I do have two curtains to split in half down a seam so they will sit either side of the window in our investment property

Looking forward to this week:
going to my hometown if I go, though I probably will, today I get to drive my car after not driving it for a week or so

Tips and tricks:
my son showed me that new suburbs have the maps on the home listings from plans from the government

My favourite blog post this week:
Has the green message become unnecessarily gendered?

Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers):
Nothing new.

No words needed: finally everyone is happy my son got his hair cut, not for my little girl and my husband



Lesson learned the past few days:
buying clothes (my daughter gives me the money from her work) on Supre online is easy I can use paypal to pay for the clothes

On my mind:
I am perfectly cheered up after my morning on the computer doing my shopping list, tagging photos on Facebook and listening to Josh Turner and NeedToBreathe

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:

2 Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." I was reading about it in the book I was given to review. Not sure if the scripture was quoted or not so I looked it up.
