Simple Woman's Daybook



FOR TODAY...January 4, 2010, Happy New Year!

Outside my window...cold, cold, cold. The fireplace has burned more in the last three days than all of last year.

I am thinking...about a college schedule for boy number two.

I am thankful for...clean starts, fresh beginnings and memories to hold dear to my heart.

I am wearing...very cozy jammies.

I am remembering...those missing loved ones away at war.

I am going...to read the entire Bible this year. I am so excited about this adventure. A couple of people have shown interest in joining me, please let me know if you do so.

I am currently reading...the Bible, cover to cover, Do Hard Things(by the Harris Twins), and Bright Arrows(by Grace Livingston Hill).

I am hoping...to finish my first knitting project of 2010 by tomorrow, now that is a good start.

On my mind...still photography, for the 100photos project.

Noticing that...it's still looking a lot like Christmas around our house.

Pondering these words...a minute on the lips, a lifetime on the hips. Wishing I could remember this when I choose to eat the wrong thing.

From the kitchen...chili, and maybe a Daniel fast.

Around the house...the remnants of Christmas and the smell of scented candles.

One of my favorite things~cold weather, warm fires, family game night with lots of laughter (OK, that was more than one thing, but all of these rolled together in one night, smile).

From my picture journal...making Christmas cookies...

A wonderful start to the new year. You've been busy. I read the Bible through a few years ago.
Love that picture thought.
