Daybook # 1 for 2013





Thanks to Peggy for hosting The Simple Woman's Daybook!

FOR TODAY

Outside my window...it is partly cloudy.

I am thinking...about an email that a dear friend sent to me and my sister late last night.  I wish that she lived closer as she is such a strong and positive Christian friend.

I am thankful...that I am having some time to myself this weekend as the boys are on their final Y-Guides Spring Outing this weekend at Camp Sea Gull!

In the kitchen...take out.  I'm home alone and I am enjoying something from outside the house tonight!

I am wearing...stone colored capri pants and a teal knit top.

I am creating...this post.

I am going...no where I hope!  Other than to grab my take out for dinner.

I am wondering...what is happening with our AC.  I think that we may need a new thermostat, at least that is all I hope it is!

I am reading...Unlocking the Kingdom by Jeff Dixon.  

I am hoping...to sleep in in the morning.

I am looking forward to... watching the baby birds (I think that they are House Finches) grow in the nest that is attached to the wreath on our front door.  Right now they are just little brown fuzz balls.  I hope they make it!

Around the house...it is quiet.  It's just me and Oliver (our Cairn Terrier) this weekend.

I am pondering...what this summer will be like with Ivan.  He is 9 and changing all the time.  

A favorite quote for today..."Sometimes it is better to lose and do the right thing than to win and do the wrong thing." - Tony Blair

One of my favorite things...Downton Abbey!  Oh my, I watched the first episode of season 1 this afternoon and am totally hooked.  I fear that I will have to spend some money to get caught up before season 4 starts in January!

A peek into my day...reading, take out for dinner and some wine.  

I will try to post a picture of our birds when J gets home with the camera tomorrow.  : )
