The Simple Woman's Daybook ~ #67 ~ 2/23/10


For Today...

Outside my window...grey skies, drizzle, melting snow...still about 4-6".

I am thinking...of our friends who lost their dog last night. So sad.

I am thankful for...the leaks, from snow damage, in our school/laundry/computer room will be covered by insurance! PTL!!!!

From the kitchen...lunch out today! Still giving supper some thought.

I am wearing...denim skirt, turtleneck sweater w/large multi-colored stripes, charcoal grey tights.

I am remembering…things my daddy told me. I must have dreamt about him last night, I woke up w/him on my mind. Good feelings.

I am going…to have lunch w/my publishers from The Old Schoolhouse magazine, the Suarez's. I'm so excited, I haven't actually seen them for about 3 years!

I am reading...all the many, MANY verses I have underlined & highlighted in my Bible. I WON A NEW BIBLE! And I'm transferring all of my notes & markings to the new one. I'm very visual so I HAVE to do this. lol And it will take...A WHILE! Also, it's leather & I've never had a leather Bible before.

I am hoping...that my mom will somehow be happy again.

On my mind…my adult daughter. It's hard to watch our children learn the hard way.

I am creating...a peaceful home.

I am hearing...the radio.

Noticing that…I'm enjoying the realization that I'm in a different part of the Titus 2 years.

Pondering these words…the TRUTH is not complicated.

Around the house...straightening, cooking, comforting.

One of my favorite things...the raw talent on American Idol. How exciting for them.

A Scripture thought...II Cor. 12:15-16 ~ "So I will very gladly spend for you everything I have & expend myself as well. If I love you more, will you love me less? Be that as it may, I have not been a burden to you. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by trickery!" Ya just gotta love Paul!

A few plans for the rest of the week...lunch w/the Suarez's, getting the leaks in the schoolroom fixed, church.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

I just love this photo. It was in one of those e-mails w/all sorts of 'caught-in-time' shots. It just makes me happy.

Blessings from Ohio, Kim Wolf<><

  2. There are a lot of things to ponder in your Daybook...the pain of seeing your mother's unhappiness and the difficulties in your daughter's life, the pain of your friends sad loss. I know some of that pain, and I'm glad that the Lord wants to carry our burdens.

    How fun to win a Bible! I do the same thing when I get a new Bible! We just have to transfer all of the underlined and highlighted verses to the new Bible!

    I hope that you have a good time of fellowship with your old friends. Oh, and I love your photo of those goofy dogs!
