The Simple Woman's Daybook ~#122~ 5/17/11


For Today . . .

Outside my window . . . grey, windy, rain. Temps went from 80* to back into the 40*s. Like being in the UK country-side instead of Ohio.

I am thinking . . . where did spring go? I still haven't gotten out many of my seeds & it's getting late in the season. :-/

I am thankful for . . . good health. I still have a little bit of a cough & some fatigue from the virus (or whatever) I had . . . but I'm better than I was & I'm grateful.

From the kitchen . . .
fresh bread. I'm thinking of some Amish French Toast for lunch.

I am wearing . . . jeans & my fuchsia thermal shirt w/thumb holes in the long sleeves. So cute, one of my favorites. Thought I could put it away, but, as I said earlier, it's only in the 40*s today. :-/ Brrr~

I am remembering . . .
the neat, old English Cottages that were on House Hunters International last night. I LOVE it when they show old cottages in the UK.

I am hoping . . . that my mom's health improves & that the Dr finds out what's wrong w/her feet. My brother has her at the Dr's for x-rays as I type.

I am creating . . .
a peaceful, Christ-centered home.

I am hearing . . .
the radio, rain hitting the windows, the occasional car driving by, typing fingers.

I am noticing . . . that I am in dyer need of that Mother's Day gift certificate that my sweet, sweet DH got me for a mani/pedi! Woohoo!

Around the house . . .
general pick up, some baking, laundry . . .

One of my favorite things . . .
a pedicure! I haven't had one in years & I'm SO looking forward to getting one w/my gift certificate next week. My little piggies need some TLC.

Plans for this week . . . family time, work, I'm doing some homeschool assessments, worship w/the saints on Sunday.

Pondering these words . . .
"Let the Holy Spirit LEAD in life's dance."

Scripture thought . . . "If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself, w/o comparing himself to somebody else . . . May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, & I to the world." ~Gal. 6:3,4,14

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

  1. A simple blood test revealed that my husband has gout! Your weather in OH sounds just like our weather here in MO! You picture must be a quaint little UK cottage!? Looks very inviting!
