The Simple Woman's Daybook

For Today, February 9, 2011...

Outside my window...temps are in the 60's, the sun is shining bright and the leaves are blowing in the breeze. My friends up north are wishing they were here.

I am thinking...of my next visit to see my daughter a week and a half from today.

I am thankful...for this weather. I don't think I could stand the cold and snow anymore.

I am going...to finish painting at some point in time. Not today, though. I have a sore shoulder blade.

I am wearing...a teal button-down blouse, jeans and flip-flops.

I am hearing...quiet. My favorite sound.

I am noticing...how tall my youngest son is getting. He's 2 inches shy of 5 feet, which is taller than his grandma, great-grandma, aunts, pretty much all the women in my hubby's family.

I am currently...doing some spring cleaning. Getting rid of stuff we don't need. I hate clutter.

I am reading...Crazy Love by Francis Chan. I read the first chapter, and cried like a baby. I didn't realize it would impact me so.

I am pondering these words..."Remove falsehood and lies far from me; Give me neither poverty nor riches — Feed me with the food allotted to me; Lest I be full and deny You, And say, “Who is the LORD?” Or lest I be poor and steal, And profane the name of my God." - Proverbs 30:8-9.

From the learning rooms...my sweet little boy got straight A's and B's again. I am so thankful!

Around the house...just some tidying up. Don't want to aggravate the sore shoulder.

One of my favorite things...baked ziti. Made some yesterday. Yumm!

A few plans for the rest of the week: hmm, don't really have anything planned. Just the usual stuff.
