It's All in a Day...Simple Woman's Daybook

FOR TODAY

Outside my window...The clouds are clearing after a rainy afternoon. There's a hint of orange since the sun is going down.

I am thinking...Actually, I am a little brain dead! School lasted until after 4 p.m. and that's really late for me. My brain wants to stop teaching at 2 p.m. tops!

I am thankful...That though the school day was long, it was a smooth day. No tantrums or fits today. Everyone did what needed to be done. The house is pretty quiet right now at about 7 p.m. Everyone is winding down. :)

In the kitchen...The kitchen is CLEAN!! YIPPEEE!! The dishwasher is running (we were without one from January to last week, that should totally have been under the "thankful list"), I washed the floor today, 3 meals happened today, it's all GOOD!

I am going...nowhere! But tomorrow I bring child #3 to her first driver's ed class!!! Oh where did that time go that my Rachel is 15 years old???

I am wondering...how we'll all do with a busier schedule starting this week...how long it will take the snow to melt...

I am reading...the book of Luke in the Bible and "Come to the Table" by Neta Jackson.

I am looking forward to...Well I have this list of people I want to have over to our house to visit

I am learning...to pray daily for God to help me display the fruits of the Spirit especially to my family: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. :)

Around the house...I am constantly organizing so all of us and our stuff fit (7 kids (though 1 is usually at college), 2 adults, 1 dog...). I have lots of big plans for shelving and closet organization and such!

One of my favorite things...ummmm...oh I know...when one of my kids cleans something without being asked...yup, totally one of my favorites! Today it happened. Ivon (7) folded laundry and organized stuff in the bathroom!

A few plans for the rest of the week...Tomorrow night I get to visit with a girlfriend ('nother YIPPEE!), two friends coming over in the afternoon on Weds. to hang with my little kids (I think I might get them on some cooking projects), Thursday my Ladies Bible Study starts back up...big week!

A peek into my day...no how about yesterday?? It's way more interesting...

And last week when we were all together...

Okay...c'mon...YOUR TURN! The Simple Woman's Daybook
