Taking Stock: November

Hello there! At the last minute this week I ended up working overnight with tiny newborn twins! Not a bad way to spend a couple of nights. I loved watching them calm each other down when they were able to snuggle together.

My last minute work threw a wrench in some of my plans, so I'm feeling a little behind on some of my projects for the week. It happens. I'm hoping to spend tonight in the kitchen cooking up some gluten-free meals for the next few days and prepping some greens. I also expect not to stay up too late tonight because my sleep needs a reset after working overnights. While I was able to close my eyes now and then with the twins, mostly I was up snuggling.


Here are a few other things I've been up to lately:

Making:  Almost finished the scarves for the girlies, and I'm about to start my very first sweater!

Cooking: Lots of vegetables, she says hopefully.

Drinking: Coffee. I'm so predictable.

Wanting: A personal chef.

Looking: At the few remaining leaves holding on for dear life.

Wishing: That I could remember more what it's like to be seven.

Enjoying: No longer having cable.

Waiting: For the snow.

Liking: The feeling of hibernation brought on by the darker evenings.

Wondering: How I'll feel at the end of my first month.

Pondering: What life will be like upon my return to midwifery school.

Considering: Painting the girls' room pink.

Buying: Little gifts of Hanukah, less than a month away.

Watching: Gilmore Girls, for the first time. How did I never watch this before?
Hoping: For the discovery of a morning routine with the girls.

Marvelling: My goofy children.

Cringing: At too much time spent of Facebook.

Needing: A bit of a social media break. 

Smelling: Roasting vegetables in my oven.

Wearing: Scarves.

Following: The Celtics, because Matty gives me no other choice.

Noticing: That Alyce's needs are changing now that she's almost eight. This is all so new to me.

Knowing: That we will figure it out.

Thinking: That I wished I'd gone to the gym today.

Admiring: Rainy, grey days.
Sorting: Through the kitchen and adding some gluten-free baking ingredients.

Bookmarking: Soup recipes, like a madwoman.

Coveting: A vitamix blender.

Disliking: Depression.
