The Simple Woman's Daybook ~#123~ 5/31/11


For Today . . .

Outside my window . . .
beautiful sunshine & blue skies; thick, leafy, lovely maple trees, birds singing.

I am thinking . . .
about how my brother & I will work things out w/my mom's care.

I am thankful for . . . the great day we had, yesterday. It would have been perfect if DD#1 could have been w/DH, DD#2 & I.

From the kitchen . . .
yummy grilled food from yesterday.

I am wearing . . . jeans, DD#1's old volleyball t-shirt from her Senior year. :-)

I am remembering . . . how lovely the cemetery where our oldest DD, my daddy & DH's mom are buried looked yesterday.

I am hoping . . .
for God's grace in answered prayer, as always.

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

I am hearing . . .
radio, Maggie growing at a something outside the window.

I am noticing .
. . that I am not the only one who is just now getting out my little kitchen/herb garden for this year! Between all the rain & work, I can't believe that I'm just now getting everything out.

Aro
und the house . . . getting my little kitchen/herb garden out, general cleaning, that never-ending laundry. Do you ever feel like your laundry basket has an endless bottom like Mary Poppins' carpet bag?

One of my favorite things . . .
a great sermon like this past Sunday.

Plans for this week . . . family time, work, I think I'm on the worship team this week, doing some homeschool assessments, time w/my mom, getting Maggie groomed.

Pondering these words . . .
"Many know Him [Jesus] only by heresay." ~A. W. Tozer. We need to know Jesus for ourselves!! There's no comparison in KNOWING ABOUT GOD and KNOWING GOD for ourselves. {from Sunday's sermon}

Scripture thou
ght . . . "Now to Him Who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work w/in us, to Him be glory in the church & in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever & ever! Amen." ~Ephesians 3:20-21

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

Isabella ~ Princess of Wales from Braveheart. She's one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

  4. I think I would like to trade my laundry basket(s) for that bag....the bag was full of fun stuff!

    Kim, thank you for coming by and commenting. I know you are busy. I appreciate your visits, whenever you get a chance.

    I'm afraid, I am guilty of coming and reading and not commenting...t.i.m.e., but I always enjoy a quick visit here at the pantry and I have learned so much from you. (((Thank you!)))

    Have a blessed week!
