For Today...


FOR TODAY

Outside my window... it's overcast and actually cool, BRAVO

I am thinking...that was a whirlwind of a couple of days

I am thankful...so thankful to be home

In the kitchen...no idea, I need to go for a grocery run.

I am wearing...my p.j.s( you know that) but I will dress today.

I am creating...working on my grandnieces headboard, she's two and going into a big girl bed.  Exciting.

I am going...today, staying put, I've just come back from a two day treck with my friend and her mom. We had a good time, a few laughs and a heart to heart talk.  Hope she saves me a seat in heaven.


I am reading...The Stand, still, I'm on page. 867, only a couple a hundred more,

I am hoping...to get my headboard, primed and basecoated, the design is floating around in my head, and I mean floating, I'm kinda empty today.

I am looking forward to...cooking something to eat, since it's cool I may actually cook something "more" than a quick supper.

I am learning... to listen, and hold my tongue, boy is that tough.

Around the house...same old stuff, my son will be off to work, my husband will be doing reports for work, and I'll be their slave.

I am pondering...just pondering aimlessly, I've been wanting to do a living wreath, and have check out a few sites with directions, but I'm thinking I might be too late in the season.

A favorite quote for today... A wise man never blows his KNOWS.

One of my favorite things...weird and wonderful sandwiches,  I made a chicken, brie and apple sandwich the other day.Yummy.  I think pear slices might have been even more tasty, and maybe some artisan bread. It was like a grill cheese.
my friend and her mom, it was so hot that this was the first opportunity to sit outside, 103degrees in the shade.

A few plans for the rest of the week: not much of a week left.  painting, laundry, tomorrow is my volunteering day and my mom's. Saturday, continue painting, need to do some deadheading in the garden, more laundry.

A peek into my day... no peeking today

For today is hosted by a Simple Woman's daybook.

I adore this post. How sweet to share some of the simpler things in life on your blog. I will have to hop over to The Simple Woman's Daybook and see how to participate.
I enjoyed reading your lovely thoughts.

So good to hear it has cooled down for you Irene. Sounds like you enjoyed the company regardless of the weather anyway.
The book review below sounds interesting...Impartial Witness. I don't normally read Crime stuff, but you have almost convinced me to read that one.
Glad you enjoyed my walk around the beach at Caloundra. Have had a busy week with grandchildren.

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to my wonderful son,  it's bee 33wonderful years. Hope this year proves to be the best yet.
