Hi all! I'm glad that you dropped in for something hot to drink! It is certainly FREEZING outside around here, so grab a mug, an afghan, and snuggle in for a bit. It's been pretty crazy around here this week! I'm involved in the Women's Ministries' Committee at our church, and we hosted a Ladies' Night out last night for ~100 people. I hosted a table, helped prepare all of the food, and sang a solo part in a music group! So much of this week's time has been eaten up by those preparations, but it was well worth it! I got to spend a wonderful evening with some of my favourite real-life Company Girls! You can read a post on my Family Blog here if you would like. I think you will enjoy my centerpiece. We also put our Christmas decorations up here at home, and I hosted Thanksgiving here Sunday night. Whew! I'm in sweats all day today, as I catch up around here! We are looking forward to a simple weekend together as a f amily!
As far as Small Things go, I participated on Fruit Day! I ate an apple and later (accidentally got another fruit serving) ate a fruit parfait. Delish. I called my husband at work and asked him if he'd please get fruit at work for lunch. He said, "I don't think they sell any". He works in a hospital, and I assured him that they had to have a basket of bananas somewhere! I always have to force myself to eat an apple, and I'm not sure why, since I really do love them. I guess, when you have the choice of ice cream and an apple, it doesn't seem so tempting!
As far as the clean slate goes, I am just working on getting my routine back to somewhat normal! I am so glad that you stopped in! Looking forward to head over to your home for a bit!
