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 ~#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 am 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.
Around 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 thought . . . "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.

My laundry basket is bottomless also! I'll pray that you and your brother get your Mom's care worked out.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a wonderful day yesterday, Kim.
ReplyDeletePraying for you and your family.
I think I would like to trade my laundry basket(s) for that bag....the bag was full of fun stuff!
ReplyDeleteKim, 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!
BTW, I voted!
