At This Present Time // December Musings




OUTSIDE
the air has taken on the familiar pale hue of winter, where nature's brighter colours have dimmed,
and everything seems more alert - or more defined - by a particular crispness that only winter knows...

READING
Pride and Prejudice ... finally.
I always knew I was a Jane Austin fan; ironically, I haven't read any of her books until now.
I'm also reading The Lamb's Supper. I recommend every Catholic read this to gain a deeper understanding & appreciation for the Mass!

CREATING
a crocheted table runner for my mother, and a stack of Christmas art cards for family & friends

THINKING
a lot about humility vs. pride
hmm ... new post soon?

LEARNING
intensely with pre-cal & chemistry & english 12

BAKING
a stove-top cheesecake for my birthday on the 5th.
yes, I made my own birthday cake.

WATCHING
Star Wars, in preparation for the release of The Force Awakens this month!

LISTENING
Sibelius: piano works ... as well as my "Fall Tunes" playlist

PONDERING
the little way of St. Therese ... how to live more simply & with more dedication to everyday tasks





The last of the Autumn leaves are falling from the trees...



p.s. The idea for this post came from Gabrielle's post at Quietly Pondering Truth
