FOR TODAY May 19, 2008 ...

Outside My Window...Beautiful blue skies, a mist over the pond,

birds playing hide and seek in the hay fields.

I am thinking...that this is our last week of school – yeah!!!!

I am thankful for...God’s call on my life 13 years ago,

for my life would be SO different without it!

From the kitchen...nothing yet (too early) but we are

having lasagna and fresh salad (from our garden!) 

for dinner tonight with two families  we are very close to

but haven’t seen in w-a-y too long!

I am wearing...jean capris, light green top with white cami

I am (trying to re-)create...a menu plan following a Dr-ordered

 ‘alkaline’ diet L

I am reading...about different writing curriculums for our

 next school year

I am hoping…that my allergies behave themselves today

 so that I might get to venture OUTSIDE!

I am hearing...lots of chattering birds and an occasional

 bellowing cow

Around the house...it is quiet as a mouse!

One of my favorite things...watching our garden grow from

a bare patch of dirt to a jungle of fresh fruits and veggies!

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week….

dinner with friends, finish school, a visit with Great-Grandma

Here is picture thought I am sharing….

My hubby and I at a WONDERFUL  little coffee shop on an

island in Lake Maggiore in Italy this past winter.

(you have to understand how much I love coffee

and just how NON alkaline it is!)
