• The Simple Womans Daybook 8 February 2010

  

  Outside my window……it is cold and snowing.  It’s a funny thing all the talk about global warming and yet my relatives in Virginia and the Carolinas have had more snow this winter than they ever have and we are having a long string of very cold weather.  It’s not warming here that I can tell.  No reason to go out today though so in the immortal words of the Christmas song, “let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.”

  I am thinking…….that I really should start my school work.  I overslept this morning, puttered around before starting my day, and now I am putzing on the computer when I should be working on my paper for English.

  I am thankful for…..a husband who loves me like mine does.  There are no words to describe this man except to say if anyone out there wants to know how to love, truly love, the way that God means us to, come and watch this man for a day.

  I am wearing……jeans and an orange carhart tee shirt.

  I am going……nowhere, I sincerely hope. 

  I am currently reading……nothing.  I am waiting for the books that I ordered from Amazon to come before Lent starts.

  I am hoping…….that whatever this virus that I have had since Christmas goes away soon since I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.

  From the kitchen…..Doug has a big pot of pasta e fagioli simmering on the stove.  I think that and homemade bread will do for both lunch and supper.

  Around the house……Matthew is studying, Melissa is reading, Doug is stirring the soup, the washer is going and all is right in my world.

  One of my favorite things……..looking up from my work and seeing the man that I love so much standing there.  After years and years of his being gone for 14 and 16 hour days I feel spoiled to have him nearby so much.

  A few plans for the rest of the week…….work on my English paper, learn more about radicals and square roots, and good old pythagorous.  The usual round of classes and holy hours and plans must be made for the beginning of Lent.

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

  

  Ian and Doug playing Texas Hold’em.  My non-gambling, very serious husband won!  Think I should send him over to the casino to see what he can do for us there.
