FOR TODAY...........March 23, 2009Outside my window...I see the beauty of the day ahead. The green grass now covering my yard, flowers in bloom, my hummingbird pole waiting for me to place the feeder onto it, and of course the birds chirping and the squirrels playing. I love spring time.
I am thinking...about planting my 6 new rose bushes today, if I can find the time. Maybe I need to make the time to do something that makes me happy.
I am thankful for...My family, my health, and my wonderful blogger friends who come by daily to read my thoughts and ideas.
From the learning rooms...I realize this title is for the homeschoolers out there, but in my life I learn something new every day and want to share. I am learning about Crohn's Disease. Trucker has had this for many years now. Up until a few weeks ago he hasn't had a flare up in almost three years. I never ask anyone to pray for us or a member of my family, but if you prayer, please include him in your prayers. We believe he has a stricture which may require surgery. He is making a doctor's appt. today.
From the kitchen...There will be NO cooking today, not even toast. We are having left overs tonight and I am on a deadline.
I am wearing...A silver lame gown and the most beautiful silver and crystal heels you've ever seen. Who am I kidding here, we all know I'm in my pj's still.
I am creating...a simpler life for myself and my family. One that involves staying home more, using less, growing a garden and not worrying about the neighbors. Learning to love what we already have.
I am going...as far as the outside perimeter of my yard to the mailbox today. That's it, no further.
I am reading...the third and final book in the Nora Roberts Trilogy called "the Pagan Stone". Damn good trilogy I have to say. Not quite as good as the Twilight series but awfully close. I recommend if you enjoyed those books (and we all know you did) then be sure and get this set as well.
I am hoping...for the day to be full of Sunshine and no rain. For the gray clouds to move over and let the gorgeous sun I do know exist to shine through.
I am hearing...Rug Rat 2 on the computer in the living room, that child talks to himself all the time.
Around the house...I just say "to hell with it" and ignore it once again.
One of my favorite things...Is taking a moment out of my day to enjoy the beauty of God's work.
A few plans for the rest of the week: hopefully to catch up on all of my deadlines, clean this heck hole up, and spend some time gardening.
Here is picture thought I am sharing...To take part in the
Simple Woman's Daybook just click on the name. There you will find many others and what they are doing and thinking today.
