Simple Woman's Daybook for 9th June 2009

13:50, Monday 8 June 2009 .. Posted in Daybook .. 1 comments .. Link

Outside my window... the weather is bright but cool. We had a lot of much-needed rain over the weekend.

I am thinking... about trying to write my testimony. This makes me very nervous, for some reason.

I am thankful for... Rain ... and the fact that my tomato plants didn't die, even though we forgot about them and forgot to water them for three weeks!

From the kitchen... I'm making stuffed peppers for supper this evening, with strawberries (from our garden) and ice cream for pudding. I also made a batch of cookies yesterday, from a new recipe that has worked very well.

I am wearing... Brown stripy trousers and a blue jumper.

I am creating... A plan for what crafts and activities I want to do with my group at this year's Holiday BIble Club.

I am going... to spend a quiet evening at home with my husband.

I am reading... God's Lavish Grace by Terry Virgo.

I am hoping... to get the rest of the plants in the greenhouse planted out in the next week,

Around the house... I need to use another round of Viacal on the toilet. The limescale builds up in there so incredibly fast....

One of my favorite things... Watching boats on the river.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Bible study Tuesday, visiting my mum on Thursday, Youth Group Friday, and we're going away to Bath for the weekend.

Here is picture thought I am sharing...

My Dad's motor racing trophy shelf a couple of weeks ago. He never won any at all in previous years, but so far this year he seems to be doing pretty well!

About Me

Hello! I'm Jo, I'm 27 and I live in a small house in England with my husband. I work full time in an office, and in my spare time I help out with Sunday school and the church youth group. When I have time, I enjoy reading, cookery and crafts, and a bit of gardening. We don't have any kids, but would really love to have some one day. Thanks for visiting me here!

Some words are different in England and America, so if you're American and I use an unfamiliar word, it might be in my little dictionary
