• Simple Womans Daybook: Monday, June 2

  Outside My Window:  The sun is shining. The temperature is 78 degrees and the birds are singing.  What a lovely and WARM!!!!!! day it is finally. 

  I Am Thinking:  Maybe I will finally warm up enough to take off a few layers and look like a human being and not an eskimo.  I am also thinking that we are so blessed to have such a beautiful place to live.

  I Am Thankful For:  The news that my son is in the USA and not Afghanistan.  That everyone is healthy and strong.  That God has given us each other and so many blessings that we cannot count them all.

  From The Kitchen:  There is a peach pie for dessert tonight, spaghetti sauce on the stove (or pasta gravy as my good friend Mrs. Amelia calls it) and meat-a-balls for supper tonight.

  I Am Creating:  A loving home and a warm friendly environment, I hope for my family.  I love you all and I want you to know it each time you are home.

  I Am Going: To finish the garments that are on the sewing machine this week.  The make the ironing pile disappear.  Make the floors of this house cleaner this week.

  I Am Wearing:  Pajama shirt and pajama pants because I just came home from the hospital and having  the last shot in my back today.  I have to rest this afternoon but tomorrow I am back to normal again. (I hope and pray)

  I Am Reading:  Shattered Faith by Sheila Kennedy and C. S. Lewis A Biography by Roger Lancelyn Green and Walter Hooper  (I can never read one book at a time)

  I Am Hoping:  That these shots do the trick and that my doctor doesn’t say “you need an operation”

  I Am Hearing:  My husband installing my daughters air conditioner in her room (before the heat wave hits) and my daughter listening to her music and cleaning out the tv cabinet downstairs.

  Around The House:  There is so much to do but I am learning to not let the work interfere with my family.

  One Of My Favorite Things:  My family around me and hearing and seeing them while they work and play.  (I think that I was always meant to be a mother)

  A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:  Celebrate my 25th wedding anniversary with my husband.

  Here is a picture thought that I am sharing with you:

  

  Ian’s corn that he planted is up.  About a week ago it had frosted over night and he called in the morning wanting to know if the corn was up.  He sounded rather dejected.  I was happy to report that the corn was not up yet.  He is a farmer through and through.  Always has been.  I am very proud of him.  This is his first big crop ever.  I pray that it is successful.
