Simple Woman's Daybook



So, I have come across 4-5 bloggers lately that I noticed have participated in and have links back to the Simple Woman's Daybook. It is so inspiring to hear the simple moments in their day...so I figured it would help ease my mind; to just clear it for a moment, and recognise and enjoy the simple things. (since I have a million things filling up on my list in my head.) 

Outside my window...
A sunny monday morning with the sound of a lawn mower and the smell of freshly cut grass.

I am thinking...
about everything I need to clean up from the weekend.

I am thankful for...
sunny, cool morning walks.

From the kitchen...
I made homemade Kansas City BBQ sauce for our grilled chicken tonight.

I am wearing...
black Nike shorts and a UNI t-shirt

I am creating...
humm...well I am always creating a million things at one time, but for the moment being I have a quilt in progress laying on the dining room table.

I am going...
to the post-office after Will wakes up to mail the invitations to my sisters baby shower.

I am reading...
"The No-Cry Sleep Solution" by Elizabeth Pantley

I am hoping...
That Will does okay with the babysitter on Saturday (only his second time)

I am hearing...
...well, the lawn mower stopped, so now I just hear the fan through the baby monitor and every once in a while a squeak or a snore. :)

Around the house...
There is way too much to do around the house right now, but to keep it simple and more pleasant- it is nice to turn the air off  and open the windows for a few days.

One of my favorite things...
watching Will explore and play with his toys.

A few plans for this week...
At some point we all need adjustments, so I will be calling the chiro today...to the post-office and the park today, the rest of the week is pretty open for spontaneity, and this weekend is the half-way formal with Thad's class...also Bix Fest yay!

Here is a picture thought to share...
I have been watching a community garden grow and noticed that a mama duck had layed her eggs right in the middle of the lettuce...
...Will and I went back to visit a week later, and saw these little cuties!!! :)
Have a fabulous monday!
