Simple Woman's Daybook



FOR TODAY
Outside my window... it is dark out. It was cloudy for most of the day.

I am thinking... I am almost ready for school to start. As much as I love the summer break I miss the routine of the school year.

I am thankful for... living near the water. We took the kids to the harbor for fishing on Saturday- well my husband did while I sat on the bench. I tried going on the dock with them until I realized it was a floating dock and I got off quick! Ever since my dizziness I can't take that motion. After that we went to the beach and had dinner there. I relaxed while the kids tried fishing again. It was a beautiful day enjoying some of the treasures here on Long Island.

From the learning rooms... I am thinking of changing the school room around. I have a few things in mind and keep looking on Craig's List for ideas :) I think I found the perfect armoire. Now if only my husband takes me to get it ;)

From the kitchen... last night I made peach cobbler. A real easy recipe I found on one of the blogs I follow.

I am wearing... a gray shirt from Old Navy and striped pajama capris (don't ask)- LOL.

I am going... to hopefully get my new armoire this week. I don't really have much else planned.

I am reading... the Bible, Womanly Dominion: More than a Meek and Gentle Spirit by Mark Chanski, The Ministry of Motherhood by Sally Clarkson, Beautiful in God's Eyes by Elizabeth George.

I am hearing... the kids playing, the A/C and the TV.

One of my favorite things... the beach. I love looking out at the water and observing God's beautiful creation. I think of the verse about how He takes our sin and buries it into the deepest part of the sea. Isn't that awesome?!

A picture for sharing... isn't it nice? I hope we get it.

  4. Hi Theresa! Wanted to let you know that I've started blogging again and have a new blog. Our computer crashed and lost everything and Melanie found my comment on Trish's blog. So glad she remembered me! Trying to remember names of blogs and look up old favs. Not easy! :-D
