This is a place for lessons learned & shared. A love for the Lord & frugal living; for homemade food, personal care, health care, home care & Bible-centered herbalism. And, after having homeschooled for 16 years, a heart for the homeschool community.

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 . . .

Blessings from Ohio . . . Kim<><
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!
