simple woman's daybook 8.17.10

today i am out of ideas for what to write about, but i do want to write.  i am taking this idea to start a simple woman's daybook for the days that i am simply uninspired, but that i do want to blog.  maybe these topic starters will ignite some inspiration for me.  anyways, read on.  it is short and sweet.  maybe you will learn a few things about me that you do not yet know.  maybe you will also be inspired to do one of your own.

 

for today:

outside my window... is sun and blue skies... only 80 degrees right now at 9:30 in the morning.  it will get much hotter.

i am thinking...about what to blog about.  since i don't have a lot of concrete thoughts right now, i thought doing a simple woman's daybook would be fun to try.

i am thankful for... my kids.  my husband.  my simple life that is full of the simple pleasures.

from the learning rooms... i am teaching myself how to crochet for the first time.  i made a hat that is a fun first project, but turned out a tad too big for my head.

from the kitchen... we have been blessed with lots of friends bringing meals after having our 4th baby.  i am figuring out creative ways to use up the leftover chicken.

i am wearing... still in jammies at 9:30.  hey, i have a newborn.

i am creating... home crocheted hats.  i hope to make one for each of my kids for christmas gifts.

i am going... not too far this morning.  i have a meeting here at the house and then piano lessons this afternoon.  we do have homegroup tonight.

i am reading... the psalms.  

i am hoping... for a better night sleep tonight.

i am hearing... the pitter patter, or maybe stomp stomp, of little feet running on the hardwood floors in our house.

around the house... trying to catch up from having a new baby.  is there ever really a time that a house is caught up on?

one of my favorite things... the smiles of my one month old.  

a few plans for the rest of the week: my mother-in-law is coming up from guatemala for a visit and to meet her new grandson, but shhhhhhh!  it is a surprise for the kids.
