In front of me, on my computer desk:

1. My cell phone (Just finished firming up plans for this afternoon with my friend

2. My almost-empty water bottle (I'm giving myself a pat on the back--thanks to an early morning hike, I'm almost done with my second 24 oz bottle of water, and it's not yet eight o'clock).

3. A crumpled napkin that I probably used to wipe up the baby before I sat down to blog.

On the kitchen counter:

4. Today's paper.

5. Ingredients (purchased on the way home from my hike) to make snacks for tonight's Bible study.

6. My wallet

7. Things I haven't put away from packing dh's lunch.

8. My iPod (in its neon green armband)

9. Speed drills for the kids to complete during math time today.

On or at the kitchen table:

10. My eldest, still in her PJs, pouring over the instructions for the new graphing calculator Dad bought her last night (She needs it for Statistics).

11. Syrup, banana peels, and empty plates from breakfast

12. A sugar cookie scented Gold Canyon candle (my all time favorite brand of candle--kicks Yankee all over the map!)

13. A binky that was reluctantly surrendered by the little guy in trade for a plate of cocoa silver dollar pancakes, banana slices, and bacon!
