Outside my window... it is dark (possibly because it's night time).

I am thinking... about packing for our weekend in Yeppoon.

I am thankful for... Jason's parents coming in tomorrow to look after the dogs on the weekend.

From the kitchen... I am still enjoying the pre-cooked meals I made last weekend for lunches.

I am wearing... my Winnie the Pooh pjs and large white furry dressing gown.

I am creating... still nothing, although my scrap room is now clean (almost). I have been doing Jessica Sprague's photo editing class this week (that I purchased almost 6 months ago). I thought I knew a fair bit about Photoshop already, but she has some great tips and shortcuts.

I am going... to Yeppoon on the weekend to see my friend Renee and celebrate her taking up a full time position, as a vet, in Gladstone, at the end of the year.

I am reading... Nothing. Waiting for my copy of Twilight, that I ordered from Fishpond, to arrive. Yes, I am going to see what all the fuss is about. Hopefully it arrives tomorrow, so I can take it away with me.

I am hoping... for beautiful weather all weekend.

I am hearing... dogs barking. Marlin is temporarily staying next door, and she hates Sam, and he hates her back. So it has been constant barking, and humans yelling 'shut-up'. The longest break in the barking followed after I threw some large soup bones over the fence.

Around the house... is relatively clean, pending Jason's parents' arrival tomorrow.

One of my favorite things... Grey's Anatomy is having a movie-length episode tonight, but I will have to wait until I get back on Sunday to watch it.

A few plans for the rest of the week... trip to Yeppoon, appointment with TAFE to see what my options are for courses this semester, and Granddad's 81st birthday.

A picture to share... in lieu of any photo I've taken recently, here's a layout I finished a couple of months ago, but didn't post to the blog. It uses one of the old Tarisota Teckni Colour kits, but I improvised with the chipboard butterflies, by painting them, and then using a medium over the top to give a glistening effect, before attaching the pearls:
