The Simple Woman's Daybook

For Today, March 13, 2012...

Outside my window...it's a pleasant day, warm, overcast, breezy and dry.  A perfect spring day.

I am thinking...am I the only one that wishes this whole Daylight Savings Time would stop already?!

I am thankful...my son E only has a bad cold and nothing more serious.  I was concerned when I saw he had a fever of 102.7 degrees this morning, but he was checked out and no infections were found.  I'm glad for that.

I am going...to try and rest some myself, since I've got this cold as well.

I am wearing...a black and white top, black capris and red flats.  It's in the 70s, or at least it was last time I checked.

In the kitchen...I made a frozen pizza.  I don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen today.

I am creating...nothing this week.  It's spring break, we're sick, and all I want is to get some rest.

I am wondering...why is it the more "advanced" we become, the more backward we really are?

I am reading...Pride and Prejudice.  Or at least I plan to start reading it.  Again.

I am hoping...my son doesn't have anymore fever.

I am looking forward to...the Bates Family special on TLC tonight.  It's on right after the Duggars.  There's not often good programs on TV; two great shows on the same night is a real treat!

I am learning...to be content with all God chooses not to give me.

Around the house...I got lots done yesterday; 4 loads of laundry, cleaned floors, did a little dusting.  It's no wonder I feel tired today.  That, and moving the clock one hour forward. :P

I am pondering these words..."Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor." - Benjamin Franklin.

A few plans for the rest of the week...since we're on spring break this week, there's no Awana.  That's actually a good thing; it gives E and I a chance to get the rest we need, and we won't be around the other kids giving them our nasty germs.
