http://thesimplewoman.blogspot.com For...  Monday, June 16th Outside My Window... is a saturated landscape, all green and lush after yesterday's much needed downpour. I am thinking... how wonderful it is for dh to be having his first day back to work after his kidney stone surgery.  He's missed it. I am thankful... that our year-end evaluations went well - and for a healthy, happy family. From the kitchen...I'll be baking a couple dozen whole wheat rolls from freshly ground red wheat later this morning. I am wearing...an embroidered, short sleeved cotton top and jean capris with bare feet. I am creating...a more organized studio - moving all of the photo boxes and scrapbooking supplies back into the house, leaving the entire studio for art supplies and all of my favorite knick knacks.    I am going...to Brown's Farm later on for fresh corn, strawberries and snaps! Yummo! I am reading..."The Design of Everyday Things" by Don Norman   I am hoping...Tucker is having a good time at his music camp.  Unlike rowing camp, which is local, music camp is 2 hrs away and for 10 days.  Though he left just yesterday, I miss him already! I am hearing...Sami digging the sewing box out of the cabinet while talking about the alterations she's going to make on her swimsuit. Around the house... All is so very quiet, with ds#1 at music camp, ds#2 at rowing camp, dh back to work, and dd#1 out too. One of my favorite things...is the time each evening when everyone comes home and shares about their day. A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:  The studio organization and also getting books and curricula ready for the big used book sale next week. Here is picture thought I am sharing... We were so amazed at the size of these horns that we just had to stop and take a picture!  Judging from her reaction, (she stopped grazing, looked up, and smiled...) it seems this beefy girl was used to the attention!  A real celebrity!
