• The Simple Womans Daybook 30 August 2010

  

  Outside my window….I really can’t tell what it’s like out there.  I have forgotten how quiet it is this early.  It’s dark with a very good chance that it will get lighter in a couple of hours.

  I am thinking….that the fly that keeps landing on my screen has to die! 

  I am thankful for…the friends and family with whom I exchange prayers.  I wonder if they all know how much I count on their prayers.

  From the schoolroom….lots of learning will be happening today.  Matthew doesn’t have to work and I have nowhere to go.  Now that mid-terms are over I can relax a little.

  From the kitchen….I really couldn’t say. Doug cooked us all burgers yesterday but I am sure there are no leftovers.  Guess I’ll have to come up with something.

  I am wearing….jammies.  It is way too early to shower and get this day going officially.

  I am creating….a cocoon of peace and contentment. 

  I am going….nowhere today unless I get a significant portion of my schoolwork done.  Matthew wants to go to the fabric store and my computer needs attention so a trip to the city is a possibility if a lot gets done today.

  I am reading….nothing at the moment.  I have been reading bits and snatches from The Summa for Matthew’s American Government class but that’s about all I can manage lately.

  I am hoping….that all who have no hope find it because it is the glue that holds life together and makes you able to go on.

  I am hearing….the ticking of the clock on the wall, peepers in the trees outside the window, and a train going by miles away.  It must be clear out since the train sounds are best when it is clear out.

  Around the house….it is dark and therefore I don’t have to see if there is a mess.  Everyone had a busy weekend spent mostly outside so I would assume that this place is quite a mess.

  One of my favorite things….swinging on the hammock wrapped in my husbands arms.

  A few plans for the rest of the week…..schoolwork, housework, cooking, praying, living, and loving.

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

  

  Well, Matthew, if you had wanted a toy like that we would have gotten you one.  You didn’t have to take over Layn’s.

   

  Layn got bit by a bug under his eye and beside his nose.  I didn’t quite capture it here but you should have seen the other guy.  He really looked quite tough.
