In a nesting kind of mood

Lately, I have been in the mood to cook.  I had to move my computer into the kitchen because the internet isn't working as well where I usually sit.

Instead of helping me to focus, it has been a tug of war.  Getting me in the mood to cook and nest.  I have stack of books that I want to read, and some Christmas projects sitting on the dining room table.

Sometimes, I just want to sit with my Samantha and cuddle up with a good book.

 Soon, I'll begin to decorate for Christmas.  It's hard to believe that it's Christmastime already.


I guess I am in that nesting kind of mood, which I seem to get into during this time of year.  The leaves are all on the ground ready to rake.

We were all nesting yesterday when RJ was over for a visit.  Oatmeal cookies were in the oven, Ricky was repairing our walkway, my husband was raking the leaves while the girls and Ashley were outside enjoying this unseasonably warm weather.

Thanksgiving is next week and I'll begin to plan the meal.    I'll be browsing through stacks of cookbooks but end up making the same thing I always do.

I've been inspired to paint a little, and of course I design from time to time.  But, my "virtual world" has been neglected of late, and I have to say I've really been in a nesting kind of mood.  How about you?

Steve Tyrell always sings such lovely background music when I am in the mood to nest and get cozy.  He always leads me to The Sunny Side of The Street.
