The Simple Woman’s Daybook
It’s been since June that I filled out these little notes. Abigail’s post reminded me to do it again.
Outside my window… the sky is a clear, soft blue and the leaves are swaying ever-so-slightly. It’s going to be beautiful today!
I am thinking… about many, many things I need to get done. It is amazing how quickly things disintegrate when I’m under the weather, even with A.J.’s help.
I am thankful for… the fact that Christian still takes two naps, giving me some downtime in the morning.
From the kitchen… tonight I am trying hearty chicken and noodle casserole for the first time. I try not to use a lot of “cream of” soups, but I do appreciate not having to make my own sauces right now.
I am wearing… um, my pajamas? *blush*
I am creating… ideas and plans. Even that is progress.
I am going… to do a brain dump of all the to-do’s floating around in my mind, then use it to update my binder. After Christian was born I started using a home notebook, and by keeping it simple and easy to use, it became one of my most helpful tools and I used it consistently until a few weeks ago. I am amazed at the difference it makes to plan.
I am reading… nothing. I’ve stalled. I have two books from my reading list waiting to be finished.
I am hoping… to begin spending more time outside.
I am hearing… lovely silence.
Around the house… things are messy.
One of my favorite things… Starbucks frappuccinos. I had a decaf caramel one yesterday for the first time in a long time. Mmm…
A few plans for the rest of the week… small group, young married’s class, and getting Christian’s one-year pictures taken.
A picture thought I am sharing… Christian and me outside last week.
Frappuccinos were my gateway drug as well… lol. Eventually I learned to like coffee without all the sugar and frills. Both of my pregnancies I’ve had a coffee aversion, sadly, but I can do frappuccinos. If only they weren’t $4+…
mmm! I can’t wait for it to get warmer and slurp down a frappuccino 
It’s been in the 70’s and 80’s here lately! I’m so not used to this warm weather in February and March!
Mmm, I love starbucks decaf soy peppermint mocha right now, it’s the only non-dairy drink I like. So good, but not good for my belleh. We’ve had gorgeous weather here this week, and have enjoyed playing outside in it, too. Your supper sounds delish!
Okay, peppermint mocha sounds really good too… mostly just that morning cup of joe! I can’t wait to drink it again!
I’ve not heard of The Simple Woman’s Daybook before but I think it’s a great way to get a glimpse into someone else’s day. I enjoyed reading this post and may have to start doing it myself 
Thanks! It’s fun!
I have not had a starbucks frappuccino in forever…that is what made me addicted to coffee…caramel is the best. Hope you get outside. It’s so hard to do anything the first trimester.
