Simple Woman's Daybook

FOR TODAY:
Outside my window...darkness.
I am thinking…that Spring cannot come fast enough!
I am thankful for…the longer days.
From the kitchen…Sour Cream Noodle Bake from the Pioneer Woman. Love.
I am wearing…velour lounge pants and a white v-neck t shirt.
I am creating…a SMARTboard unit for a class I'm taking.
I am going…to have a great vegetable garden this year. Hear that, rabbits? No peas for you this year!!!
I am reading…Sink Reflections.
I am praying…for those living the aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The men, women, children, animals...and their help. They have been on my mind.
I am hearing...the fan on my computer and the noisy keys. Silence.
Around the house…a mess clutter. Note to self, read more Sink Reflections and get going!
One of my favorite things…My new Ketti Handbag. Cannot wait to use it!!
A few plans for the rest of the week…a haircut. Bangs, or no bangs? That is the question...Also get together with 3 girlfriends Friday night for dinner and watch our 9 kids play together. Should be interesting. Run around the house with a bag and declutter. Again, Sink Reflections.

Simple Woman's Daybook #2

FOR TODAY:

Outside my window...Michael and Austin are putting rocks around the end of the driveway to raise it up a bit. Since we got the new concrete slab, and added road base the level of the rocks went down...

I am thinking…about my classmates going to our 15 year reunion at Iverson Park in Stevens Point - right now. I'm waiting until the 20th, more formal, better turn out.....I hope!

I am thankful for…my body that can still run and do yoga!

From the kitchen…it is clean....!

I am wearing…capris and a t shirt.

I am creating…an organized computer. I got a new hard drive so it needs desperately to be decluttered and reorganzied.

I am going…to take Austin and Ethan for a bike ride today. I got a 'trailer' for them to ride in behind my bike.

I am reading…Eat, Pray, Love. (Which, I should do LOTS of!) (Yes, I'm not done yet!)

I am praying…that Austin will stop poking, stepping on, hovering over, hitting, waking up, and laying ontop of his brother. It's starting to get old!

I am hearing…the hum of my computer. Ethan's asleep and Michael and Austin are outside.

Around the house…there are toys out. Boys were playing on the rug in the living room...

One of my favorite things…candles. I have one burning right now.

A few plans for the rest of the week…to plant the garden on the north side of the concrete slab, go to Point tomorrow, take a bike ride, run more, do yoga......

FOR TODAY:

Outside my window…the wind is blowing. It’s a cool 64 degrees today, and it's mid July!?

I am thinking…about my new hard drive and CD burner I ordered last night, and the fact I finally decided on which case to buy!

I am thankful for…my amazing husband who can do just about everything!

From the kitchen…areness...grocery shopping with the boys in less than an hour!

I am wearing…my favorite jeans and a t shirt.

I am creating…a baby shower on Saturday for my friend who is having her first baby in 2 months!

I am going…to take Austin and Ethan and my hubby to Costa Rica someday. It's all Austin talks about. I apparently own the country since he calls it 'Mama's Costa Rica'. Wish it were true, hon.

I am reading…Eat, Pray, Love. (Which, I should do LOTS of!)

I am praying…for patience with my very spirited and inquisitive 3 year old boy.

I am hearing…my wind chime singing in the wind.

Around the house…
its just me and the animals. Michael is at work, the boys are at 'school' for the morning. Ahhhh...a few moments of peace and just worrying about me!

One of my favorite things…a clean, picked up house - which I have at this very moment!!

A few plans for the rest of the week…to extend a garden on the north side of the concrete slab, throw a baby shower for Nicole on Saturday, stop by friends' house on Friday night to see their one month old boy, Orin....we'll see what else happens! I'm open!
