Sep. 1, 2008 - Today's Simple Woman's Daybook
FOR TODAY September 1, 2008...Outside My Window... it hasn't been daylight long. The days are getting shorter, but today is supposed to be sunny and warm with blue skies.
I am thinking... about what I want to accomplish today.
I am praying...about adopting and for our friend Paul in boot camp.
From the learning room...ready or not, we're starting tomorrow! But we're starting slowly, mostly just trying to get back into a routine.
I am thankful for... Audie and Levi and Truman.
From the kitchen...
Tuesday - Spaghetti
Wednesday - Beef Stew
Thursday - Fish and Potatoes
Friday - Chicken and Biscuits
Saturday and Sunday - each day we have an afternoon family reunion picnic.
I am wearing...blue cargo pants, an orange t-shirt and a long-sleeve, button-up, denin shirt.
I am creating...order and routine (or attempting to).
I am going...to take Truman for his morning walk when I finish this.
I am reading...Romans, Levi's school books and Created For Work (Practical Insights for Young Men) by Bob Schultz.
I am hoping...to get back into using the treadmill and free weights. I've been slacking off lately.
I am hearing...Trumans toenails clicking on the hardwood floor and Levi making his breakfast.
Around the house... I need to vacuum, clean the bathroom and wash bedding.
One of my favorite things...homemade baking powder biscuits fresh from the oven, with some jelly on top.
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: start school, find a rhythm to our days that works for us - a framework, but not too rigid - one that we can stick with.

A rhythm for our days, that is what I need to find. The kids have their own rhythms that are slightly off from what I need (they are staying up WAY too late right now which means sleeping in.)

Wow, you surprised me with your adoption post. Yes, prayer is key - if it is God's will, He will bring it about. I would love to adopt another child or two (or more) lol and like you, not a baby, but have the same situation. I'm just leaving it up to the Lord and whatever will be, will be. I'm guessing being that I am almost 50, it won't come to pass, but you never know.
Your week sounds delicious - love your menu plans. Fun picture of Levi and his pals too. Have a good week my friend!
