FOR TODAY ~ June 9, 2008
Outside My Window ~ The sun is shining, the birds are singing their cheerful song, the air smells clean and fresh after the rain last night.
I am Thinking ~ of my Dad who is in the hospital. He will be having a feeding tube inserted today, and I am praying that it will not be too uncomfortable for him.
I am thankful for ~ I am thankful that my brothers were able to come home from the U.S. to visit with my Dad. I am thankful for a loving husband that helps me get through the rough times. I am thankful for my children. I am thankful for a loving Saviour, who loves me even when I am unloveable.
From the Kitchen ~ Tonight we will be having baked Ham with pineapple sauce, mashed potatoes, carrots, and turnip. Hopefully we will be having Birthday Cake (for me! :o) ) made by my wonderful husband!
I am wearing ~ A jean skirt, and a tan colored T-shirt
I am creating ~ I am working on a cross-stitch of an antique Singer sewing machine and a quilt.
I am going ~ to have some routine bloodwork done tomorrow and then I will visit my dad for awhile since I will be at the hospital anyway!
I am reading ~ "Beautiful Girlhood" by Karen Andreola
I am hoping ~ that we can start working on our new bedroom soon. We have a room in the basement of our house that we would like to "make over" into a bedroom for my hubby and I. A room that will be much cooler than the one upstairs!
I am hearing ~ the cars driving by and the birds chirping away!
Around the house ~ I have a lot of tidying up to do today! We are trying to declutter ~ get rid of those things that are absolutely NOT needed and are just laying around inthe way. Boy! What a hard thing it is to get rid of useless "treasures".
One of my favorite things ~ I love to sit and listen to sound of the waves crashing on the rocks at the shore and to hear the seagulls flying over head.
A few plans for the rest of the week ~ Plans this week.....Hmmmm, I'm not real sure yet what we will be doing this week, other than the same old everyday routines. We do have a Wedding we are supposed to go to on Saturday, but I guess that all depends on finances (gas is outrageous don't you know!), and how my Dad is doing by the weekend.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing ~

I love your picture.
I'll pray for your father today. My mother had that done after brain surgery 10 years ago. It wasn't fun at all, but it wasn't too bad either, once she got used to it. She got very hungry though. Her throat was paralized and she couldn't swallow.
All is well now. I hope everything will be ok for your father.
Blessings to you and your family.
