Simple Woman's Daybook...

For today... July 6, 2009


Outside my window...
is an overcasted sky with very warm temps


I am thinking...
of what this upcoming week will have in store


I am thankful for...
the Lord restoring health to our family,
after the children being ill this past weekend


From the learning rooms...
we continue to try to "get back to the books",
aiming to complete our study of Ancient Egypt and Exodus
and working on the completion of
other miscellaneous subjects so we can
transition into the upcoming 'school' year


From the kitchen...
a little blessing (cleaning) is needed from the weekend


I am wearing...
a blue and pink paisley jumper with a cream collared shirt


I am creating...
a new round neck dress with a six panel skirt, zipper, pockets,
and regency sleeves (and it's red!)


I am reading...
my KJ Bible through in a year,
currently in Ruth, Psalms, Acts;
Lessons at Blackberry Inn by Karen Andreola;
Home Education by Charlotte M Mason;
reading aloud "Summer With the Moodys" by Sarah Maxwell


I am hoping (praying)...
continued revival in my heart, in my family,
in our church, in our nation


I am hearing...
the shower running, the children playing,
the dog barking to go outside,
and the maintenance man mowing the lawn


One of my favorite things...
being able to spend extended holiday weekends
with my beloved


A few plans for the rest of the week...
tackle my "To Do" list: begin lessons at home;
try to meet an online friend that's passing through;
begin walking; continue juicing;
attend our midweek prayer and Bible service;
& enjoy the pleasures of home



Here is picture thought I am sharing...
