Simple Woman's Daybook , June 8, 2010

FOR TODAY

Outside my window...
On my front porch actually I love sitting out here in the early morning, such peace. The weather is lovely this morning but will soon heat up to sweltering humid hot. The birds are singing, 2 kittens are playing under my chair, and a dog in the distance is barking thru the woods probably chasing a rabbit.

I am thinking...
Of the sweet words I read this morning in my comments folder. I don't get to many comments on this blog but lately the ones I have gotten have been so sweet and uplifting. Thank You all!
I am thankful for...
 the garden and producing some of our food we eat.

From the learning rooms...
Book Reports....The kids have books to read this summer and book reports to write on them. The finish their first book last week and started working on their reports yesterday. Well they thought they were done but mom rejected them and they are starting over and finishing today

From the kitchen...
Yesterday, we made homemade bread, biscuits, and canned some potatoes. This is a first time for me to can potatoes so we will see how it goes. So far so good.
I am wearing...
A gray tshirt and my green skirt I made a couple months ago. And an apron....
I am creating...
Menu and food for girls camp other than that I am created out.
I am going...
To be blissfully staying home today, we did yesterday as well it is such a lovely feeling. Friday we are going to the coast about an hour drive south and having our pictures taken with grandma and going swimming.
I am reading...
Proverbs 31

I am hoping...
That all goes well next week and that we do a good job in the kitchen.

I am hearing...
One of our meat chickens is crowing! He is very good at it considering he is only 12 weeks old.
Around the house...
Well, right now I am on the porch and I have 2 kitties playing under me. They are about 8 weeks old and cute as can be. We have named them The T's or T. I know so unoriginal but the T stands for Thing 1 and Thing 2 and we call them T for short. Our barn cats never know their names so this is really just for us.
One of my favorite things...
Babies of any kind human or animal they are all so cute.
A few plans for the rest of the week:
pictures being taken, swimming, youth, errands, canning, gardening, and just loving the sweet little heaven I have here in the middle of nowhere.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
Last week Yguy made cookies and brought me a couple while I sat on the couch. Speck took it upon himself to beg shamefully, I was holding a cookie above the camera to take this picture. He thinks he is so sweet and deserves his share. His daddy has spoiled him rotten! Yes, dear husband you have!
