The Simple Womans Daybook 12 September 2011
Outside my window…the skys are cloudy which makes for a spectacular sunrise. The peepers are reluctant to give up the stage to the sounds of the daylight hours. The scents coming in the window over my desk are an intoxicating combination of fresh air, freshly mown grass, and the rapid approach of fall.
I am thinking…about adventures and time spent discovering the will of God for one’s life.
I am thankful for….long walks with my husband and thunderstorms.
From the schoolroom…I am now on my own with my studies. Matthew is all graduated and MK is off for the next 8 weeks.
From the kitchen…there will be much deliciousness springing forth. I just don’t have a clue what it is going to be.
I am wearing…shorts and a sweatshirt.
I am creating…not a thing. It is just not a day for creation.
I am going…to the post office to send off the latest batch of book orders. After I get home I plan on staying there.
I am reading…The Scarlet Letter by Nathanial Hawthorne
I am hoping…that my daughter has a good time visiting with family and that she finds the answers to the questions that are in her heart.
I am hearing…Layn protesting over getting his diaper changed, little Isabella barking for her turn to go out, and the washer toiling to clean it’s first load of the wash week.
Around the house…it is a disaster! I don’t know how things got that way since no one was home yesterday but that is the nature of this family. I am not complaining though, I would rather have lived in and loved than a show place that no one feels comfortable in.
One of my favorite things…sitting here at my desk while Layn sits on the floor beside me playing with his fire truck.
A few plans for the rest of the week…school, school and more school. While I am doing that there is Layn, taking Matthew to and from work, cooking meals and doing laundry.
Here is a picture thought that I am sharing with you…
