Simple Woman’s Daybook

FOR TODAY
Outside my window there are lots of chickens running around.

Norlee (age 6) took this photo of her FAVORITE subject.

I am thinking that August starts next week and it makes me sad because summer is going by way too fast!

I am thankful for my hardworking husband who does so much around here in addition to working all day.

From the learning room daughter is learning to read, son is challenged by decimals and I am getting inspired about sewing.

In the kitchen there are blanched green beans vacuum sealed and ready to freeze.

I am wearing pajamas.

I am creating a quilt for my coming grandson.

I am going to have some delightful visiting this week.

I am wondering how in the world will I get it all done!

I am reading Charlotte Mason Companion by Karen Andreola

I am hoping I will experience good health and energy.

I am looking forward to being a grandma.

I am hearing:

My daughter coloring with markers

My husband listening to Alex Jones on the radio.

And my son talking on the phone to a friend.
Around the house… MESSY, MESSY, MESSY!

I am pondering how sick and tired I am of being sick and tired.

One of my favorite things… Coffee from my coffee press that my son and daughter-in-law gave me for my birthday in May.

A few plans for the rest of the week:  BUSY week and feeling a wee bit stressed.  Wednesday shopping for organic food for my special diet, Thursday working at Ramshackled Treasures, Friday morning coffee with DARLING daughter-in-law, Friday afternoon visit with friends, Saturday my daughter’s baby shower for our FIRST grandchild! I don’t usually have this many things planned in a row, but it all seemed to come up at once.

Here is a picture for thought I am sharing…

When I take the time to observe the world around me I marvel at the beauty of God's creation. And the best part, the very wonderful thought is that this is but a glimpse of what is to come!
