Simple Woman #19

For Today . . . December 8, 2008

Outside my window . . . it's snowing - great big fat flakes - and lots more is predicted for overnight but then tomorrow afternoon it will turn to freezing rain as a warm front moves through!

I am thinking . . . that it's only 2 weeks until Melinda and Tyler come home!! I have many things to do before then!!

I am thankful that . . . God hears my prayers and provides healing where it is needed

From the kitchen . . . ham and mushroom pizza, a batch of cranberry almond granola, more poppycock and a pot of sunshine lemon rooiboos tea

I am wearing . . . black warmup pants, a pumpkin turtleneck sweater, a brown/black vest and slippers (seems to be my Monday uniform!)

I am reading . . . Lulu in Marrakech by Diane Johnson

I am hoping . . . to finish another cute sewing project tonight and move on to the next thing on my long list

I am hearing . . . logs crackling in the fireplace and the kettle boiling

I am creating . . . many top secret Christmas gifts!

Around the house . . . I put the creche up on the fireplace yesterday and have more Christmas decorations to unpack

One of my favourite things . . . is getting Christmas letters, cards and pictures in the mail - we've gotten 3 so far and 2 had lovely pictures of young families (thanks, J & M and B & C)

A few plans for the rest of the week . . . presents to wrap, shopping to finish, Christmas pictures to pick up at Costco, women's program at our church, 2 days of substitute teaching, Christmas in the barn celebration at our neighbor's and snow to shovel!

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

an ornament that Heather made for our tree.
I was going to show you our creche but Bob has absconded to Airdrie with both of the camera cords, I think!

There are more daybook entries to read over at The Simple Woman. Enjoy!
And I apologize that the Simple Woman logo is missing - Blogger will not pick it up tonight - urghhhhh!
