Barbara, from The Serenity Gate, offered several thought-provoking sentence prompts on Tuesday. I think taking the time to finish them is a great way to tune in to the day around us. And they may also serve to boost a little creativity.
Here are my answers:
Outside my window... dusk falls over the beautiful, 60+ degree day we had.
I am thinking... I'd like to have a glass of iced water.
I am thankful for... my daughters. My love for them feels deeper of late.
From the kitchen... comes a chocolatey dessert's call. Janna, Janna! I'm in here!
I am wearing... my glasses, because my right contact lens continues to irritate me.
I am creating... a better me.
I am going... to get that luscious chocolatey dessert and settle in with my book.
I am reading... Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult. I'm really enjoying her writing, and I wonder at the fact that I never picked up any of her titles before.
I am hoping... I can keep the headaches at bay.
I am hearing... talk between my three-year-old and husband, as they discuss a tv show together.
Around the house... is comfort.
One of my favorite things... is a good laugh with someone special.
Plans for [the weekend]... include going to a vintage market and antiques expo. I can't wait!
How would you complete these questions?

Great prompts! Your answers have given me a little window into your day. :) I'll post mine on FB once I have finished them. Thanks for sharing!
Ooh, these are great! I may do this for tomorrow's post.
Enjoy your chocolatey dessert! I'm being good tonight. :-(
Vintage! How fun! Hope your weekend is great...and that the chocolate in the kitchen gets eaten only by you :)
Turk - I eagerly await your answers! :)
Melissa - Oh, but I'd totally share my goody!
Stonefox - I hope it doesn't disappoint. Hope you're feeling well, too! :)
I tried Jodi Picoult a while back, but didn't get into it; I may have to give her another look-see.
Nice.
Oh, love this - what a good prompt...

enjoy the antique shopping...one of my fave things to do and haven't done it in so long!
I've been wanting to read a Jodi Picoult book for a long time and just haven't bought one. You'll have to give us your review.

Yummy chocolate! And I too would like to know where Ms. Picoult has been and why I have not read her!
Can't wait to hear what you think!
Jewel - To be fair, it did take a bit to get into this storyline. And I've heard about the subject matter of others of hers (specifically My Sister's Keeper) that I don't know if I could handle.
Angie - :)
Kat - I hope you get a chance to go antiquing again soon!
FringeGirl - Maybe I will do a review. Thanks! :)
Kelly - I'll share my chocolate, if you get her quick! :P
These are great. Maybe I'll do this for my blog today since I couldn't think of anything this morning.
I'm glad to hear about the water... :)
I haven't read much Jodi Picoult, but I LOVE her My Sister's Keeper.
Just an amazing book. Amazing.
Nice prompts. I just posted something else, but I'll answer these tomorrow.
What a cool prompt, Janna! I may have to do this as well. :)
Outside my window... I'm trapped in the prison that is work. No windows.
I am thinking... How can I escape.
I am thankful for... the fact I have a good paying job.
From the kitchen... we don't have a kitchen here but the breakroom has plenty of ice cold Dr. Pepper.
I am wearing... clothes, because they frown on naked employees.
I am creating... new ways to screw off.
I am going... to hide and play on the internet until quitting time.
I am reading... your blog.
I am hoping... nothing breaks so I do not have to do anymore work.
I am hearing... equipment running..
Around the house... does not pay as well.
One of my favorite things... is a day I can stay home and write.
Plans for [the weekend]... going to mass for my son's first communion.
Hmmm, I'm going to answer these, but I'll have to be careful or all my answers will be about food--unfortunately even the one about what I'm wearing. Looks like after almost 50 years I could get fork to mouth without sharing with my shirt!
great finishers cuz, think im gonna borrow this to and try it out. :)
Melanie - You'd be proud! I've had more water in the last month than the previous two or three. :)
Spy - Really? Well, you make me think maybe I should try it. My mom gave me Second Chances today (also Picoult's) though I haven't read the blurb yet.
Wendy - Great! And go you with the writing/rewriting/resending. Good luck!
Jen - I'd like to see your answers.
Travis - *snicker* I'm really glad the USPS frowns upon nekkid employees.
Amy - *wipes tears* You are too, too amusing. :D
Josh - Do it! I double-dog dare ya. ;)
you and family need to come up here and play some cards with us. Its in the Leadbetter DNA!
Thanks for the prompts! I will consider these as I'm writing my blog.
How are you Janna?
These are wonderful prompts, thanks for the share, Janna!
LOL
The kitchen one is the same. It's like a siren's call, luring us to our demise! Hehee
Me too Janna!
Josh - I'd love to!
Kathy - Can't wait to see 'em! All is well. :) I hope the same for you.
Kimmi - Thanks!
Jessica - And here it is another day... my kitchen answer is the same. LOL!
Kat - Yay! :)
