Outside my window....... A pleasant, if overcast day. Such a nice change from the 35C heat we've had for the past week.
I am thinking about......... Anna Karenina. I started it yesterday.
From the kitchen.......... I'm making chocolate slice and ginger crunch slice.
I am creating......... Not much right now. I need to get back into sewing.
I am reading......... Anna K., also re-reading P&P (yes, again!!).
I am hearing....... Relatively quiet right now!
I am hoping......... To have a quiet, productive week.
I am planning.......... To finish Anna Karenina within one month.
I am wearing............ Nothing interesting, LOL.
Around the house.......... General tidying up this morning. 1 neat and organised mother + 8 messy children = some interesting situations sometimes. :P But mum managed to get us (and the house) into quite a clean and organised state over the course of the morning. What an amazing, patient mother I have! :-)
My wish of the week......... That the crazy weather we've had across this country over the last few weeks would settle down, so that people can begin to rebuild their lives. No more flooding or bushfires or cyclones, please!! Having said that, I am very grateful to God for keeping the people of Queensland safe during Cyclone Yasi. Only one death reported - truly a miracle!!

Though some of Tolstoy's philosophy is really odd, I love his works. I've yet to read Anna Karenina, but I imagine it's as beautiful and haunting as his other books.
I discovered your blog when I was searching Google Images for Little Dorrit photos--and I was thrilled to find a kindred spirit! I've been slowly reading through your blog's archives, and enjoying them immensely. You have wonderful taste in books. :) I am re-reading Pride and Prejudice too! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know how much I love your blog! Keep pressing on!
In Christ,
Amelia
