Possibilities
I've been thinking...one of the nice things about having a blog that almost nobody reads is that I can write pretty much anything I want, without worrying about what people think. Hmm. This could be good. I shall ponder for awhile, and then may let the venting begin.

Finny's Blog, Stardate 63272.1
A snapshot into my life right now.
The weather in my neck of the woods:
Gorgeous! It has been cool, cloudy some days, sunny others, and beautiful. This is my favorite time of year.
One of my simple pleasures:
Checking on my son while he sleeps, and giving him a kiss on his forehead.
On my bedside table:
My XM radio, and Personality Plus: How to Understand Others by Understanding Yourself by Florence Littauer. I love studying what makes people tick.
On my TV:
I am working my way through Ken Burns' The National Parks: America's Best Idea.
On the menu for tonight:
Chili Lime Chicken Tacos
On my To Do List:
call about swim lessons
paint a rocket on my son's ceiling
research German Christmas traditions
New Recipe I tried last week:
In cooking class, I learned how to make Mongolian Stir-fry, Wonton Soup, and fried Wontons, but have not made them myself, yet.
Looking forward to:
Doug and I are going to see Thoroughly Modern Millie with the Duncan's.
Lesson learned recently:
I'm finally starting to see that making a list, and posting it prominently, really does help me to get things done!
On my prayer list:
A friend who is struggling with a disease.
Devotional, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8
