Thursday Thirteen

December 18th, 2008 . by Joyce

Thirteen things I’ve done today:

  1. Slept in. I didn’t have to get up early this morning, since school was canceled (SNOW DAY!).
  2. Was served a pancake breakfast by my 12-year old son. Thank you, Dearie.
  3. Made coffee about four times. What can I say? The only non-coffee drinkers in our home are the grandchildren, ages 2 and 6 months.
  4. Baked two loaves of Dutch Apple Bread.
  5. Am in the process of making four loaves of Honey Whole Wheat Bread.
  6. Got CAUGHT UP on laundry. With eleven people in our home, that doesn’t happen too often.
  7. Kept the kitchen neat (over and over).
  8. Watched the juncos eat birdseed outside the study window. Uber cuteness.
  9. Neatened up the mucky boot/shoe area in the laundry room.
  10. Did a Thankful Thursday blog post.
  11. Watered houseplants. They sure dry out quickly during these wood stove days.
  12. Checked my email.
  13. Read quite a few blogs using Google Reader.

    That sounds like a great day. What a terrific son! Dutch apple bread sounds wonderful, I would love the recipe and I will definitely try the honey wheat bread. I’ve been enjoying making bread lately.

    I hope it was as peaceful as it sounds.

    I’d be better off writing about what I DIDN’T get done today! :)

    how sweet that your son made you breakfast.
    We have the snow storm today, but no snow day here. It has to really be bad for them to call a snow day here.

    What a busy woman! When I was a kid my brother and I were in a childrens’ home for 5 years where there were over a 100 children and we had a commercial laundry that everyone took turns working in, so I know doing laundry for eleven people is huge! I am so sad we no longer have thursday thirteen site to go to, so I’ve gone back through my thursday thirteen posts and am visiting people from that list. Happy Holidays

    Lots of snow outside your window! I imagine, it must feel so good to stay in bed longer.
