simple woman's daybook

For Today January 28, 2019

Looking out my window... it is a snow-y, blow-y, blizzard-y and cold winter day.

I am thinking... of all my teacher friends who get an unexpected day off due to the inclement weather outside.

I am thankful... for the quiet stillness of a morning while everyone sleeps. 

One of my favorite things.... other people's stories.  We are all so different and unique and wonderful.

I am creating... a feature wall.  Arranging little treasures to make a bigger statement.

I am reading... Control Girl: Lessons on Surrendering Your Burden of Control from Seven Women in the Bible by Shannon Popkin

I am hoping... that my son will let go of his fears and anxieties.  Talk about a beautiful story in the making.

I am learning... to look for beauty in difficult circumstances.

In my kitchen... smoothies, salads and scones as well as the beginning of a list of appetizers for our Sunday gathering.

In the school room... no snow day for my kiddos.  They are somewhat disappointed, but I reminded them they can take a 'spring' day later on.  Just think of bubbles and bikes on the first warm spring day.  Yay!

In my garden... this brave bird.

A moment from my day...

This guy has been waiting for the day the vacuum is easier to push.

That day finally arrived!
