The Simple Woman's Daybook

 FOR TODAY....Wednesday, March 9, 2011

Outside my window...Dusk has arrived, the sun has set.  It is

overcast and has been a rather dreary day.

 

I am thinking...And wondering if I am ever going to get 

things cleaned out downstairs.  It has become quite a

project.  Of course, I can only work for short periods of

time because of my arm.  So, let it snow! Let it snow so I

don't want to be outside.

I am thankful for...The many memories that have come into

my mind as I have been sorting, shredding and organizing.

A Thought I Am Sharing..."You will always stay young if 

you live honestly, eat slowly, sleep sufficiently, work

industriously, worship faithfully---and lie about your age."

Found this in a scrapbook my mother had kept.  Good

for a little chuckle!

From the kitchen...Taco Soup.  Comfort food on a

dreary winter afternoon.

I am wearing...My p.j.'s.  Decided to slip into something

comfortable and relax after working downstairs all

afternoon.

I am creating...A mess!  But it will be worth it when it is

all done.  I'd take pictures but I don't want to scare

anyone away from reading my blog.

I am going...To do some stitching this evening.

I am reading...Nothing at the moment.  Just picked up a

couple of books at the library today.

I am hoping...To sleep better tonight.  I think I must be

stirring up a lot of dust because my cough is back and it

kept me awake last night.  Or maybe, my grandchildren

and I are just passing it back and forth.

I am hearing...The evening news on the TV.

Around the house...Walls are looking a little bare as 

Valentine Decorations have been taken down.  But,

a few St. Patrick's Day decorations are helping.

One of my favorite things...Warm freshly baked cookies.

A few plans for the rest of the week:

Work tomorrow

FHE tomorrow evening

Tending my granddaughter Friday

Attending a wedding reception Saturday evening

Ironing

Church on Sunday

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
Wall hanging my Mother made many years ago.
When she passed away I brought it home for my
family to enjoy.
