A Simple Woman's Daybook

FOR TODAY
Tuesday, May 7, 2019

Outside my window...
Green, and more green! I see Squirrels
scampering, birds flitting, chickens scratching
and sun shinning...62 degrees and
expecting a high of 85

I am thinking...
about doing this and that...I've often
said that if I did all I think about, I
would accomplish a lot...

I am thankful...
for a peaceful home and a loving husband...

In the kitchen...
one slice of the Birthday cake of
which I have eaten way too much...
Strawberries from the garden and no leftovers

I am wearing...pajamas

I am creating...
trying to finish up the HHC,
needing to start some needlework

I am going...
to stay home today and wait on
the man from Precision Door..
our garage door finally called it
quits..

I am wondering...
if we'll ever have a day without pollen...

I am reading...
People of the Abyss by Jack London..
been reading some classics lately

I am hoping...
to do a couple of loads of laundry and
trace off an embroidery for daughter among
other things..

I am looking forward to...
a few days at home...some
weeks, it seems I have to go somewhere
every day, and it is nice to spend time at home
occasionally

I am learning
what 70 feels like...

Around the house...
mostly tidy, waiting for the housekeeper to
clean...

I am pondering...
the way the world has changed since I was
a teenager..

A favorite quote for today...
"We read to know we're not alone."
C.S. Lewis

One of my favorite things...
clean linens on the bed

A few plans for the rest of the week:
Women's Club meeting Thursday night
Workshop on Friday
