The Simple Woman's Daybook

FOR TODAY... Monday, January 18, 2009
Outside my window...it is windy! Been windy all night...power outages all over the area, thankfully not here!
I am thinking...it feels good to get all this laundry done!
From the learning rooms...learning to take the time to just breathe.
I am thankful for...modern-day laundry practices! Especially with today's extra loads!
I am wearing... black yoga pants and a purple shirt
I am remembering...that we're all on our own journeys together.
I am going...to watch an old movie this afternoon.
I am currently reading...Jamie Oliver: Jamie's Dinners
I am hoping...for sunshine!
On my mind...family and friends that I am missing. Wished we all lived closer!
I am creating...an even more organized space in my craft room.
Noticing that...Common sense is rather uncommon these days.
Pondering these words...Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. ~Samuel Ullman~
I am hearing...the water running as my Swedey does the dishes and the noise of the kettle as it starts to boil.
From the kitchen...Beef and broccoli soup being made from last night's beef and broccoli dinner.
Around the house...the laundry pile has dwindled to nothing!
One of my favorite things...reading over the phone with my niece...have been REALLY enjoying that extra time together!
A picture I'm sharing:
