The Simple Woman's Daybook!

FOR TODAY November 17th, 2008

Outside my window...It is a cool crisp morning but the sun is shining and the high is a beautiful 72 degrees.

I am thinking...That I had a wonderful weekend and I am exactly where God wants me and the family to be.

I am thankful for...so much this morning. Mostly Richard. He is my best friend, he puts me in my place when need be, and is such a great dad and husband.

From the kitchen... My kitchen is clean, very clean. The dishwasher is empty, the refrigerator is getting that way Jackson is laying at my feet as I type this at the kitchen table.

I am wearing...a Notre Dame sweatshirt and some lounge pants.

I am creating...My to do list and Christmas to do list.

I am going...shopping today. I love to shop and especially for other people. I love finding that perfect gift for someone.

I am reading...still reading Marley and Me.

I am hoping...that we can wake up on Christmas morning at our new house!

I am hearing... my music playing on the computer, the dogs playing with each other and the washer and dryer humming in the background.

Around the house...is boxes, everywhere. We have pulled out winter clothes but have no where to store them so the boxes sit so we can dig through them.

One of my favorite things...is Christmas music. It should start playing in a few short weeks.

A few plans for the rest of the week......Shopping, going to Kirstins class tomorrow to make a Thanksgiving craft with the kids, doing some of my observing for my school that is required, my deadline is almost upon me, shopping, Gymnastics, tumbling, and maybe just maybe joining the gym.

Here is picture that I am sharing...This is Kali showing me her Bridge. I love the confidence she has. I think she has more at seven than I have ever had. She is a strong child that strives to please and succeed in whatever she does.
