Simple Daybook #22


For Today . . . December 29, 2008 - The last entry of the year!

Outside My Window . . . a snowy winter's day - temperature of -10 degrees Celsius and no sunshine

I am thinking . . . that Christmas was a wonderful celebration, even if we felt swamped yesterday

I am thankful that . . . all of our kids came home for Christmas and we had a whole day together to enjoy each other.

From the kitchen  . . .  scrambled eggs with veggies and lots of leftovers

I am wearing . . . jeans, a snowman sweatshirt, striped blue socks and slippers

I am reading . . . the last chapter of Three Cups of Tea

I am hoping . . . that Melinda is feeling much better tomorrow.  She battled the flu overnight and has to fly home to New York City at 8 in the morning.  She looked at rescheduling but there are no flights available until Jan. 6.

I am hearing . . . the 11 o'clock news on TV - it's taken a long time to do this entry today, what with internet outages!

I am creating . . . the last pages in my December Daily album - I have lots of catching up to do!

Around the house . . . a big mess!!  Gifts to put away, toys to get back in the toybox and some laundry to do.

One of my favourite things . . . . watching everyone open their Christmas stockings!

A few plans for the rest of the week. . .   taking Mel to the airport, creating, afternoon naps and game nights with some friends.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you - Mel and Tyler opening their stockings.  Can you see her baby bump?!


Pop over to The Simple Woman and join in on the fun!

  4. You had a very busy week, and I'm so glad we were part of it, except for the being sick part. Now it's time for a good night's sleep. We miss you lots already!
