Daybook Entry 3/23/09

Outside my window...
Clean and cold spring day. I actually heard an emergency vehicle siren which I NEVER hear on our country road, so that was a bit jarring.

I am thinking...
about what joyful things we can do this Spring Break week. I have the entire week off and I don't want to waste a minute.

I am thankful for...
my sweet family. I think both college-age girls will be up today to spend time with the family.

From the kitchen...
I'm off to make Banana Crumb Muffins as a warm and yummy treat. I'll also fill the crockpot so we can play today and have dinner when we get home.

I am wearing...
cozy sweats. I supposed I should get dressed in a minute. (tee-hee)

I am creating...
more aprons. I'm behind with THREE aprons and have three more due within the week. One is for a special little girl and my DD has a design in mind - she will be assisting in sewing, too.

I am going...
to find adventure today!

I am reading...
NOTHING! Not exactly true, I have several books on my nightstand but none of are capturing my mind. I do have two books from a friend at work that I know I'll be sucked into once I begin.

I am hoping...
that my hubby's leg wound finishes healing, and the my brother and family make some sound decisions that are firmly in God's plan.

I am hearing...
the soft breathing of my middle daughter as she sleeps on the couch behind me. I miss that girl!

Around the house...
there are signs of projects in progress, laundry needing done and lots of opportunities for freshening. I wish I'd win a lottery or something! A fairy godmother would be nice, too.

One of my favorite things...
is having a slow family day.

A few plans for the rest of the week:
Monday is family fun day, Tuesday a little work and a visit to the Humane Society (working on a Girl Scout badge), Thursday supper swap in the evening, Sunday nursery community builder (5th week).

Here is picture thought I am sharing...
I love how the trees on the coast adapt to their windy environment, but stay strong and beautiful.
