Simple Woman's Daybook, February

FOR TODAY
Outside my window... Beautiful, lovely, refreshing, crisp, a brand new day!
I am thinking... nothing really just sitting here typing this and thinking of the things I need to do today.
I am thankful for...friendship, mostly the friend I have in my husband. I am not one who has to have lots of friends. I have a few close friends, but large amount of friends is very exhausting for me. My hubby is my best friend.
From the learning rooms...just another school day all of us looking forward to spring break.
From the kitchen...Sour dough muffins made with sprouted wheat. Last night we had shepard's pie which was delish!
hamburger cooked and seasoned to your taste, Ashley did a taco seasoning with tomato sauce. Layer this on the bottom of the pan
veggies of your choice and the amount you want layer this next
Mashed potatoes this is the top layer.
Bake till warm throughout
You can top with cheese if you want. But it is good without.
I am wearing...one of my favorite demin skirts and a blue top. I am dressed to my shoes and have my hair pulled back in a clip on top but down in the back.
I am creating...at the moment I am an advisor for my daughter as she is creating a quilt. She is doing great on her own, but likes me somewhere near incase she needs my advice.
I am going...to teach of bunch of girls, 8-11 years old, how to make bread tomorrow night.
I am reading...Jesus the Christ and Sunday School lesson
I am hoping..."We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul- We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things"  Thirteenth Article of Faith
I am hearing...birds chirping, Ashley reading a scripture to me, a dog signing as she makes herself comfy for a nap.
Around the house...muffins cooling, dogs sleeping, cats napping, dishes to be washed, seedlings to be fertilized, catnip infusion to drink, plants to be watered, and life to be lived.
One of my favorite things...Demin skirts, soft cats, baby goats, spring green, a lovely note in the mail...I know more than one thing.
A few plans for the rest of the week:Kids are spending the night with grandma Friday, Hubby and I are going to Baton Rouge to the temple, picking up one of Ashley's baby goats, Seminary for the kids, turning in Wyatt's Eagle Scout paperwork that has been signed and passed by his Board of Review! Storehouse volunteering, bread making class....
Here is picture for thought I am sharing. Last night Wyatt had his Board of Review for Eagle Scout and did a good job. He was very nervous, but glad it is over and is now an Eagle Scout! They told him you are now and always will be an Eagle, there is no used to be an Eagle.
