Simple Woman's Daybook!

FOR TODAY MARCH 30, 2009

Outside My Window... It is almost dusk. The winds are blowing softly, the clouds are gray and it is a calm Texas Spring evening.

I am thinking... that my feet hurt. I wore heels today to school and was on my feet all day. Now my feet need to heal from the heels.

I am thankful for... blogs, I enjoy writing and I really enjoy reading others!

From the kitchen... our kitchen is cleaned up from dinner. We had grilled pork chops, fried potatoes, corn on the cob, and sugar snap peas. A down home good southern dinner cooked by my down home good southern and darn hot, husband!

I am wearing... my sweat shorts and a tee shirt, we just got back from walking!

I am creating... a grocery list for the weekend. We are hosting the 7Th and 8Th grade girls this weekend for D-Now and I need to get some yummy in the house for the guests.

I am going... to be busy this week.

I am reading... nothing new. I thought about wandering up to the bookshelf upstairs but have yet to make it.

I am hoping... that I can teach for Bullard Independent School District next year!!!!!!!

I am hearing... the TV. Richard is watching a hunting show, Kali is very intrigued by it and asking many questions, and I hear the running of the shower Kirstin is in...Not sure where my feisty 12 year old is right now. I can't hear her!!

Around the house... it still smells from dinner, which I love the smell as it's cooking, but now as I'm full, I think I might need to light a candle..

One of my favorite things... My "Baby Amy" doll that Sharon, my sisters friend made, my sister adopted her and mailed her to me. (Did that make sense?) She sits in my dining room on my grandmothers old sewing chair. I had her on the mantle, but she fits so beautifully in the old chair, that I decided to give her the formal room. I'll have to blog about the chair sometime. It has really special meaning to me and memories as a child.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: Volunteer in Kirstin's class tomorrow, we our closing on our house Wednesday, Subbing on Thursday and Friday, D-Now this weekend, along with class all day Saturday. My week is going to be busy but fun!

Here is picture thought I am sharing...

This is Kristy, Micheal's girlfriend. This was taken a couple of weeks ago. She is so sweet as last week she called and wanted to take the girls to the ballet. So Kristy loaded up with Kirstin, Alex, and Kali and took them to see Cinderella. I wanted to take a picture that day as the four of them looked so pretty, but it never happened. The girls had so much fun experiencing their first ballet and I am so thankful that Kristy took them!
