The Simple Woman's Daybook

Hosted by Peggy.

FOR TODAY

Outside my window...much cooler weather -- Colorado remembered it's actually spring, not summer, I guess.

I am thinking... about my dear seven-year-old who is with her dad and feeling very sick.

I am thankful for... 35 years on this planet and the opportunity to try again today.

From the learning rooms... house-sitting for a friend starting on Sunday -- always learn new things in a new house..

From the kitchen...Brown Cow Cream-Top Plain Yogurt --  makes me very happy.

I am wearing...an over-abundance of pastels -- I look like an Easter illustration.

I am creating...ideas for what to write for Fiona's (over-due) birthday letter -- I have a book I write her a letter in every year, for her to have when she is older.

I am going...to a sunrise service on Sunday with friends I've known since I was about 12.

I am reading... The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan -- I'll finish it up today and start The Weird sisters.

I am hoping...that Fiona will feel better soon.

I am hearing... "Keep Holding On" by Avril Lavigne on the CD my friend Kacy made for me <3

Around the house...packing for house-sitting, doing laundry, and trying to get everyone well.

One of my favorite things... somebody willing to scratch my back.  :)

A few plans for the rest of the week: thinking about what to get with my Amazon birthday gift certificates from my mom and my aunt (!), send a letter to my brother, trip to the library, settle in house-sitting.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
Amy took this picture of Lilly, Fiona, and I -- sharing the love. :)

  1. It sounds like you are busy and I hope everythings settles for you and that your little one feels better soon. I am dogsitting myself and learning new things about dogs every day. That is such a good idea to write a letter a year to your child for them to read when they are all grown up or even if heaven forbid somethings should ever happen to you too soon.
    I should do this too. Thank you for sharing that.
