Simple Woman's Daybook for Monday, May 7, 2012

Outside my window... Even though I think I planted them in too much sun, all three azalea plants and the one Camilla bush all have new leaves so I'm taking that as a good sign. what is even more surprising is the Hydrangea from my Maw-Maw's house (transplanted three times over a 15 year period) has three blooms and the one lavender plant is blooming.

I am thinking... the plants are all gonna make it and it is a miracle.

I am thankful for... Mondays spent at home. Didn't feel good today. Called in sick.

From the learning rooms..... Started this Bible Study.

From the kitchen... Since the husband's recent doctor visit, a whole lot less baking and a whole lot more steamed veggies and boneless skinless chicken breast is going down in my kitchen. (tonight's menu: chicken breast, green beans, and corn)

I am wearing... the oldest pair of shorts I own. I honestly think I wore them in high school. They should be thrown out, but they are oh, so comfy.

I am going... to the dryer then back to lay down in bed.

I am hoping... My favorite niece gets that engineering job in Lafayette and one of my youth at church brings the two F's up in two weeks to pass.

I am hearing... Way too much hum of the air conditioner. Its going to be over 90 today (for the fifth day in a row).

I am creating....A menu in my head. I have two food ministry packages to make next week. I'm thinking PB&J bars will be involved. (They had Butter Cake last time, and Oreo Cookies the time before that)

Around the house... I'm looking for a rug for under the kitchen table. Its difficult to find a 6'6" round rug. Everything is either 6' or 7'7". I need something between those two sizes.

I am looking forward to... Dancing with the Stars tonight.

A few plans for the rest of the week....fighting my way through the new mountain of paperwork on my desk. When you miss a day, it multiples.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing... my neighbors' yellow rose bush that I swear she does nothing but ignore but is rewarded with multiple continuous blooms. I often threaten to cut some in the middle of the night for my kitchen, instead I just steal a picture.
