The Simple Woman's Daybook 3

FOR TODAY: February 1, 2010

Outside my window...bare trees and snowy fields
I am thinking...not much of anything
I am thankful for...my girls Kim, Colette, and Shari. We just got back form pedicures. I love girlie trips. My toes are painted red.
From the kitchen...potato soup (see disaster post)
I am wearing...my brown shoes, jeans, a black T, pink fleece with pink vest, off white scarf, and my gray pin-striped hat.
I am creating...slippers (size 8) and a baby blanket -both knit projects
I am going...Tim Hortons
I am reading...Free-range knitter, What the Psychic Told the Pilgrim, Jane Eyre, R is for Ricochet, Julie and Julia, and Simply Strategic Volunteers
I am hoping...to understand the slipper pattern by week's end, right now the project has been set aside but there person how commissioned the slippers would like them done.
I am listening to...India, a mixed CD of various styles and Indian performers
Around the house...I made my own toilet bowl cleaner last week. I think I am going to try making my own oven cleaner next, but I lent a friend the book with the green cleaning recipes.
One of my favorite things...the first day of a new month. It feels like the day is full of possibilities and freshly painted toes with no smudges.
A few plans for the rest of the week: actually start working out and write the curriculum for children's church.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
We have a "No Cell Phone" policy at youth group. Just before Christmas one of the youth dropped off his "banana phone". I loved it so much I took a picture. The only down side was his "phone" caused me to have the the kid's song "banana phone" stuck in my head the rest of the night.
