Simple Woman's Daybook~May 21st Edition

For Today...

Outside my window... lush green, damp & foggy

I am thinking... how blessed we are to live way out in the country

From the learning rooms... counting down the days till the last day of school!

I am thankful for... spring rains!

From the kitchen... roasting chicken for tonight, fresh home made bread.

I am wearing... long black skirt, striped Polo, pony tail.

I am reading... nothing right now. Just trying to finish school!

I am hoping... to get to those letters that I am so far behind in answering

I am creating... a good vegetable and herb garden.

I am praying... for priests

Around the house... making zoo trip and Scottish Parade plans

One of my favorite things... when the girls and I paint our toenails together

A few plans for the rest of the week... getting the lettuce , carrots, beets and turnips planted, setting up the drip system, and Mass tomorrow.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
Sigh. Still can;t get pictures off the camera.

Simple Woman's Daybook ~ May 5, 2009

FOR TODAY May 5, 2009...

Outside my window... Partly cloudy and breezy. The kids are transplanting some catnip they got from Nana's garden.

I am thinking... about the books and items I need to order for next year's school and the kitchen.

I am thankful for... for the gift of forgiveness.

From the learning rooms...finishing up school - only 4 weeks to go!

From the kitchen... have a beef roast in the crock pot. Need to make bread.

I am wearing... light blue cropped pants, blue sweater with hearts woven in.

I am creating... mini- greenhouses over my raised garden beds with my husband.

I am going... outside to plant seeds in egg shells with the kids.

I am reading... Kitchen Garden by Cathy Wilkinson Barash.

I am hoping... to have some tea parties soon.

I am hearing... "Oh What a Beautiful Mornin'" playing on the stereo.

Around the house... laundry waiting in the dryer (I can't wait to get my clothesline up again), Maria taking a nap, kids eating apples outside.

One of my favorite things... Ian coming home after work!

A few plans for the rest of the week: finish up the week's school, build a bed for the strawberries and plant them!

Here is picture thought I am sharing... I am sorry to say that my camera and computer still aren't on speaking terms.
