• The Simple Womans Daybook Monday 08 August 2008

  

  Outside my window….. clear, cool, and sunny.  Perfect day for drying the laundry outside.

  I am thinking….. how close it is to fall and then comes winter.  (have to stop thinking that way)

  I am thankful for….. the wonderful weekend we just had with Mary-Kate home and a visit with Ian.

  From the kitchen….. well, I was planning leftovers for lunch but there aren’t any so how about BLT’s and cheesey corn casserole for supper.

  I am creating….. some new skirts for myself (yes, I am actually going to sew for myself unless a commission comes in)

  I am wearing….. blue jeans, a white tee shirt and a navy blue hoodie

  I am reading…… Quest for Love by Elisabeth Elliot and The First Patient by Michael Palmer

  I am hoping…. that we get to see Ian this week before he leaves for drill on thursday

  I am hearing….. Matthew studying in his room and the sounds of birds outside my window

  Around the house….. all is neat and clean and the laundry is outside.  This feels very good.

  A few plans for the rest of the week….. put away outside things that we no longer use, school, sewing, more laundry, lesson plans for my 2nd grade religion class

  Here is a picture thought that I am sharing with you…….

  

  The view outside my window.  I bet you all can’t guess that being outside is what I crave the most.  It takes a great deal of discipline and love for God to keep me inside doing my duty.  My dream home has walls and walls of windows.
