The Simple Woman’s Daybook for March 13, 2017

Looking out my window … it’s dark.  Not a hint of the coming sunrise.

I am thinking … about all the things I have to do today.  Often on Mondays the list is long because I rest on the Lord’s Day and don’t work.

I am thankful … for that day of rest and the time I get to spend worshipping or being with friends and family.

One of my favorite things … is my extended family.  I got to spend time with them celebrating my nephew’s tenth birthday. These cousins love each other and the adults and it’s a loud, raucous time. Lovely.

I am wearing pajamas and sweatshirt. I dragged myself out of bed.

I am creating … a series of blog posts interviewing homeschool moms on their hobbies. Some of these women are so amazing and I can’t wait to introduce them – of their hobby if you know them already.

I am listening to … the shower running downstairs. Well, it just turned off.

I am hoping … that R-girl’s ortho appointment goes well this morning. I hope the expander has done its work.

I am learning … about resting in today and not planning too hard for the future. Individual steps ahead.

In my kitchen … Mondays are leftover days, so we’re going to have breakfast leftovers and dinner leftovers. It makes for an easier transition back into the work week.

In the school room … I got my prereading done this weekend. This helps me to prepare assignments in the best way.

Post Script … Every week I look forward to Karen’s “Weekend Web Wandering” posts. She always finds fascinating articles that I hadn’t seen and leads me some trails. If you aren’t reading Living, Unabridged, you’re missing out! I can’t wait to catch up with her in person at GHC in Cincinnati 🙂

Shared Quote … I ‘ve decided to highlight one poster from WwW here each week. I appreciated this post from Aria on love and it’s nature. And I very much appreciate that she was influenced by our pastor – may I so be influenced to partake in daily devotions.

A moment from my day … so this lasted about 10 minutes. Bliss. (and unusual!)

Closing Notes: I’m hoping to get some posts extra up this week. One about }pacify{ and things I’m considering about that. One about pre-reading and keeping and how that currently looks in my home.  Besides Wednesdays with Words and Our Weekly Amble. It might be a busy posting week.

Linking up with The Simple Woman.
