The Simple Woman's Daybook.....

I love participating in Peggy's The Simple Woman's Daybook, but just never have time.  Although, today I just made the time.  Here goes:

 

Outside my Window...I here the chirping of birds and it is going to be a scorcher of a day.  They said the high was going to be 98 with a high humidity.  Oh, my!

I am thinking...of all that I need to get done.  I have cleaning and laundry, as we pretty much do nothing but spend time with Ronnie on the weekends.


I am thankful for...my children.  I am thinking on the new school year and I am so thankful that I can spend my days with them.

From the kitchen... Ronnie smoked two chickens for me this weekend and I will be putting them to good use today.  I think I will make
Poppyseed chicken and Crockpot chicken enchiladas.


I am creating...we have so many projects going on but the biggest thing I am working on is our plan for next year's school year.

I am going...nowhere today or tomorrow.  We will be home, praise the Lord.  Wednesday we have dentist appointments and hopefully a library trip.

I am wearing...right now I am still in a T-shirt and pajama pants.  The kids are still sleeping.

I am reading...I have started my chronological reading plan over and am reading in Genesis.  I just ordered the
Encyclopedia of Country Living by Carla Emery and Storey's Guide to Raising Pigs.  So I will be devouring those pretty soon. 

I am hoping...for a week that is full of great memories with my kids before the hustle and bustle of starting school starts.

I am hearing...I am listening to a little news before the kids get up and it all gets turned off!!


Around the house...are piles of school books that I need to sell on ebay.

One of my favorite things...the simple life that we have found and are now cherishing. 

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...not to get too busy!!!


Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

This is a great picture of the sun setting I took a couple of weeks ago in our back yard.  I wish those electric lines were not in it but you still get the jest of the beauty.

 

After you are finished here go over and check out the other daybooks.

Have a great day,

Trixi


Good To Hear From You,,

You're a busy lady! I have some schoolbooks on eBay right now. Every little bit helps. I love the sound of the crockpot chicken enchiladas, and I hope to make them soon! Thanks for the link to the recipe.

not sure that we are moving yet....it's on our minds for now. We feel that it might be in our future, but don't have a definite answer from God yet.

Looks like things are falling right into place on your homestead. Remember when you were searching for your new home?! Seems so long ago, eh?!

Blessings,
Laurie

“I want to know one thing,” said John Wesley, “—the way to heaven: how to land safe on that happy shore. God himself has condescended to teach the way. He hath written it down in a book. O give me that book! At any price, give me the book of God! I have it: here is knowledge enough for me. Let me be a man of one book.”
