Tuesday 10

It's been awhile since I've done a 10 on Tuesday post.
Here are 10 things from my life today.

1. Spent the morning watching inauguration coverage. I have to admit I got a little emotional. So very inspiring. I thought Obama's speech was excellent and loved how he put everything in an historical perspective. I loved the quartet and the John William's piece. I thought Melia and Sasha looked adorable. I loved the invocation. I was amazed at the multitudes of people there and the number of young people in the crowd. I loved seeing the faces of the Tuskegee Airman up front. I could go on....

2. Wearing my new favorite t-shirt today.

3. Playing around with this site:


4. Heard some lovely tunes created by a 3 year old today. Several original compositions along the lines of this one "Oh froggy, oh froggy, what do you eat? You eat bugs. Oh froggy, oh froggy, do you have friends. Yes you do. Now it's the end." You should of heard her "Oh sun, oh sun" song...several rousing verses about the sun coming up and going down and hearts are all around and the birds are asleep and the people are awake. She got the rhyming down though, which is pretty impressive for a speech delayed three year old.

5. Engaged in a brief conversation with a man heading into Target who asked me how I liked my car. The conversation ended as with him telling me my husband was a lucky man.

6. Helped my poor one armed mother wash, dry and flat iron her hair today. Let's just say it's a good thing I am not a hair sytlist!

7. Enjoyed some home made granola this morning that I made yesterday from this lovely cookbook and a gingerbread muffin courtesy of a Fresh and Easy mix.

8. Came home with an achy body and sore throat...I am NOT getting sick. Can't, won't.....

9. Hoping to work on my 2009 scrappy calendar project tonight, but because of said achy body not feeling it.

10. Wanting this gorgeous knitting book.
