For Today

 Monday, July 7, 2008

Outside my Window...all sunshine and clear blue skies! I see the canopy with tables and chairs still under it from our big Independence Day celebration on the farm.

I am thinking...about the blood drive today and everything that I need to take with me.

I am thankful for...the sunshine and summer weather. It doesn't last long enough!

I am creating... platters and trays and plates of cookies for the blood drive and fresh lemonade.

From the kitchen...  leftovers from last night's party.

I am going... to make appointments for our new pup and our sick kitty at the Vet's office.

I am reading...my donor list.

I am hoping...that I will feel better as the day goes on.  I woke up very dizzy and sick. I haven't had these symptoms (to this severity) since the winter. It's a little discouraging when you think you're better and find out otherwise. I'm praying for strength for the next couple of important days. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me...

I am hearing...the puppy playing in his "toddler" play yard. :-)

Around the house... fresh flowers in mason jars (which were arranged on our tables yesterday). Everything is clean and tidy. It's great to have company!

One of my favorite things...Shabby Chic/Vintage finds at a sale (see picture below)

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...  Blood Drive, 4-H judging,

Help a friend create a web business for her clothing business, garden work, R-E-L-A-X- by the pool. :-)

A picture thought to share for the day...

Sigh. That's EXACTLY what I would have brought home from the yard sale, too. Well, I am happy that it was your "find" and know that you will do something cute and amazing with it. Now if you'll excuse me, your post has made me want lemonade.

I'm sorry you're feeling poorly, Amy. I hope you improve soon.
I like Shabby Chic also!

I enjoyed reading your daybook.
I hope you felt better and stronger as your day went on. It sounded like a busy day with the blood drive and cleaning up from your week-end.
Have a lovely remainder of the week,

Just wanted to take a minute and thank you for welcoming me and my new blog. Sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well. I'll be lifting you up in prayer this week.

I think I've told you that I like reading these tags. I think they're neat. :)

And I know you don't like having your photo taken because I've only ever seen one of you! LOL

Love
