The Simple Woman's Daybook ~#139~ 10/18/11

For Today . . .

Outside my window . . . a little grey, but it just makes the colors of the trees stand out that much more.

I am thinking . . . why do some people have a propensity toward drama & then want to drag their extended family into it w/them? *sigh*

I am thankful for . . . having the balance of more common sense than "book larnin'"; & for the work of missionaries.

From the kitchen . . . Tuesday is bread baking day. Dirty rice sounds good for today.

I am wearing . . . jeans, black tank top under a gray cardigan sweater.

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

I am going . . . to take DD#2 to work, run by the farm & get some milk, putter around the house, go to work.

I am wondering . . . about resolving an issue.

I am reading . . . The Story & The Heart of the Story ~ Bible study for church.

I am hoping . . . that we can do some home repairs soon.

I am looking forward to . . . hearing, "Well done, good & faithful servant."

I am hearing . . . the radio, typing fingers, DD#2 puttering around the house.

Around the house . . . general pick-up, cleaning, baking, laundry . . .

One of my favorite things . . . my hubbie's beautiful hazel eyes.

A few plans for the rest of the week . . . family time, work, worship practice, worship w/the saints on Sunday.

Pondering these words . . . Faith is not passed on from parents to children; it is demonstrated, chosen & then lived out generation by generation. (KW<><)

Scripture thought . . . "Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart & with all your soul & with all your mind.' This is the first & greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law & the Prophets hang on these two commandment.'" ~Matt. 22:37-40 ~~The WHOLE LAW is summarized in: 1) love God, 2) love people.

Here's a picture thought I'm sharing with you . . .
