The Simple Woman’s Daybook for August 25, 2014




 
FOR TODAY



Outside my window…
it’s finally summer-like hot. 




I am thinking…
that we need new soccer cleats for a couple of kids.




I am thankful…
we had a wonderful church picnic on Saturday.
 
In the kitchen… we’re back to strange eating and grocery schedules; soccer practices start tonight.




I am wearing…
black tanktop and jeans shorts.  Comfy for at home.




I am creating…
just finished assignment sheets for the week.  It will be miraculous if we finish anything if the work done this morning is any indication.




I am going…
to buy more laundry detergent; I’m almost out!




I am wondering…
just who N-boy’s soccer coach is.  I know who is coaching the girls’ teams, but don’t recognize his coach’s name.




I am reading…
A Civil Contract by Georgette Heyer.




I am hoping…
to finish The Liberal Arts Tradition before next Monday.  I’m so close. I failed last week. Again. Third time’s a charm?




I am looking forward to…
the long Labor Day weekend.


I am learning …
about how Khan Academy works while R-girl and I take some time to slow down and refresh.



Around the house…
re-instating chores and routines is painful. Still painful.




I am pondering…
folding laundry.  Just pondering at the moment, though.




A favorite quote for today… 



One of my favorite things…
hearing my kids play the piano.  Unfortunately, they’ve been playing new metronome.  



 
A few plans for the rest of the week … SOCCER!




A peek into my day…

  1. Oh, I really want to read The Liberal Arts Tradition! I'm looking forward to hearing what you have to say about it. 🙂

    1. It is so good! I really like it. Definitely worth the time, I just wish I hadn't taken a big break in the middle. Did you see this WWW from January?

      And, here, I thought I was being sneaky 😉
