The Simple Woman's Daybook - Page 4

For today... Monday, August 11th, 2008.

Outside My Window... I can see the dewy fog being spotted on the grass as the sun is coming up. The grass in front of the barn looks like it snowed in front of it, because it is so white. And I can see Charcoal (our cat) sitting on the porch in front of the big window.

I am thinking... about a story I made up last night and how I want to write it down. And that I don't have a name for the main character in it! Got any suggestions? :)

I am thankful... beautiful morning that God has given me today. I don't think I will forget this wonderfully beautiful morning!

From the kitchen... cinnamon rolls! I plan to make some today... I made some a few days ago, but of course, they are gone now!

I am wearing... penguin pajama pants, a yellow shirt, my red sweater, my robe, and a pair of socks.

I am creating... a story today. Just a story. (and if I received a return letter, I will be writing another one back to whomever sent it.)

I am going... to be thinking a lot today, and probably cleaning a lot too!

I am reading... Millie's Unsettled Season, published by A Life Of Faith, based on the Martha Finley Series. I am reading it to review it for Growing In Grace Magazine.

I am hoping... that I can behave better than I did yesterday.

I am hearing... the birds' singing their early morning songs as the sun is coming up. There are many different ones, but I could not describe nor tell you what birds they were. 

Around the house... No one is up but me, so it's quiet. Dad left for work about 5minutes ago, so I am alone now.

One of my favorite things... is to sit and write a story and imagine I am in the story.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: Ooh.... I *want* to weed the garden, go on a bike ride, make some cinnamon rolls, write my story, journal, clean (of course), cook something today, read my book. (Not really for the rest of the week, but I am taking it one day at a time!)

Here is picture thought I am sharing...
Here is four pictures of the doe goat that I put together. I thought I would just give you a combination of them all! Left to right, top to bottom - Belladonna (my goat), Keci (Hannah's goat), Keci, Chloe and Eamena, (Chloe and Eamena are Jocelyn's), and they are there with Caleb, but Bella is there instead of Keci. He is feeding the, apples! :)

Thanks for including me in the Carnival awhile back. It feels like I've barely been home this summer.

I just posted a Flash-animated story about honeybees, feel free to put it in the carnival sometime if you want. (http://www.homesteadblogger.com/LazyCreekHoneyFarm/107187/)

I enjoyed reading your daybook. I love names, so I'll make a suggestion for your character! A female name that I like is Bronwyn and a male name is Brody or Brock.

Have a great week,
Tammy
