1.
My heating pad. Been meeting up on the couch with this trusty old friend many nights lately. I'm thinking that the fact that my back is aching and I'm only at 18 weeks along does not bode well for the next 22...? A good excuse to blog rather than get something useful done though, right?
2. My brand new, just waiting to be written in, 2011 planner. Call me old fashioned, but I just can't get on the calendar-on-my-phone band wagon. There is something so satisfying about writing things down, flipping the pages and visually being able to see it all in one place.
3. The King's Speech. Matt and I saw this movie last night and really enjoyed it. And not just because I am a speech therapist. :) I love movies with really good acting and a story line that everyone can enjoy...
4. Our Pastor's sermon today. (I will link it once it's up). He talked about truly getting what Christmas is about...(but not your typical sermon on that topic)...helps me put things in perspective for sure.
5. Our Christmas tree. Just makes me happy every time I walk by it!
6. That I decided to hang up Christmas cards this year, rather than put them in a basket. Also makes me happy every time I walk by, and is a frequent topic of conversation for Saylor, who LOVES to look at all her friends' pictures and talk about them! And really, is there anything better than checking the mail in the weeks leading up to Christmas? So fun to get happy cards from people you love!
7. Adele. I hadn't heard of her till recently but man she is so good.
8. Dave Barnes Christmas album
9. The Sing Off. This show is definitely a guilty pleasure for Matt and me these days. :) Don't think many people out there watch it but it's just fun, and luckily only on for a few short weeks so we can't waste too much time. We are big Ben Folds fans and love hearing what he has to say to each group.
10. Saylor's new Christmas monkey pj's. Just love them!
