• The Simple Womans Daybook Monday 18 May 2009

   

  Outside my window…………cool and cloudy.  The sun is trying to shine.  Let’s hope that it succeeds since I would really like to spend the day outside.

  I am thinking………….how blessed I am to have the husband and children that I have and to live the life that I live.

  From the schoolroom…………we will resume lessons today.  After being away for so many weeks it will be good to get back into a “normal” rountine.

  I am thankful for………….being home after being away for a week.  I enjoyed visiting family but to quote Dorothy, “there’s no place like home”

  From the kitchen…………I think I will bake a few strawberry rhubarb pies today.  Maybe porkchops on the grill for supper tonight.

  I am wearing………….blue jeans, pink cami and a grey sweatshirt.  I am hopeful that the weather man is right and it will warm up today.

  I am reading………….still working on Henry VIII

  I am hoping…………it warms up and stays that way finally so that I can get all my plants into the garden without risk of frost.

  I am creating…………a haven and a place of richness in my garden and in our yards.

  I am praying…………for things far to great to list. 

  Around the house……..wonderful chaos as my children come home from school and come home on leave to visit.

  One of my favorite things…………thinking about the summer stretching ahead and Mary-Kate home everyday.

  A few plans for the rest of the week…………..laundry, holy hours, gardening, enjoying the last two weeks of the big guy’s leave.  Spending time with Jason before he leaves for Missouri.  Trying to get some quality school time in.  In other words, the usual.

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

  

  My nephew Joshua and his new bride Amanda.  A few of us went to SC for the wedding and to visit with family.  Vacation was great and the visit was good but it is so good to be home.
