Happy Homemaker Monday - Last of the Year

             

I have truly missed you all. I sort of pulled myself out of life for about six months. Depression. But thanks be to God, I'm starting to pull myself out! 

*** The weather in my neck of the woods*** 

Can we talk about how much I can't stand the weather this winter? We have been in the upper 30s to 50 (yesterday, almost 60) and not a flake of snow. It rained all day today.  It's really quite depressing. 

 

 

 *** Things that make me happy ***

Family. Writing. Reading. Relaxing after work. A cup of hot tea. Ollie Bear. Planning. 

 

 

*** Book I'm reading *** 

In the Bible, I am reading through Revelation and went back to an online class I started a long while ago. 

I am also reading: 

Finishing up The Court of Mist and Fury 

Just starting: Wherever the Winter Runs by Kelly Minter

Up next: The View from Rainshadow Bay by Colleen Coble 

Bible Study: 

In January I am going to follow along with The Bible Recap. I received the study book and journal for Christmas. I'm excited to begin!
