The Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window I see the heat rising and the flowers wilting and it is only 8:50 a.m.

I am thinking about my day and all I need to get accomplished.

I am thankful for today, my family, my faith.

I am wearing capris, a shirt, my DOK cross and again -- no shoes!

I am reading -- still -- "The Shroud of the Thwacker". I am afraid Animal Crossing has really bitten into my reading time -- not good.

I am hoping that today goes my quickly and that I get everything accomplished.

I am creating absolutely nothing right now -- the quilting is halted, the Christmas crafts have been gathering dust -- Animal Crossing time again. I think it is time for an intervention! Or a timer!

I am praying for Allen's safe return tomorrow.

Around the house it is clean up day!

One of my favorite things is trying a new dish and having it come out like the picture!

A few plans for the rest of the week include babysitting Nathan and Kathryn (yay!), a dental appointment and a date with the hubby for our anniversary.

A picture thought I am sharing with you
