The Simple Women's Daybook

For Today...It's April 6, 2009

Outside my window... Grey, Rain, Nasty!!!

I am thinking...What a lovely day I had yesterday and how I wish I could bottle that feeling for days like this when it seems like a very distant memory.

From the learning rooms... Vlogs are video blogs. I kinda thought so but I wasn't sure.

I am thankful for... keeping my sanity even when it feels like it is hanging by a thread.

From the kitchen... chicken, yogurt and flax seed taste wonderful together.

I am wearing... my comfy jeans and a cream short sleeve sweater.

I am reading... Artie Lange, the bible and Twilight (for the second time)

I am hoping... that the weather cheers me up tomorrow.

I am creating... a CD for my daughter's 4th birthday

I am hearing...General Hospital in the background, my kids playing and my husband's grunts as he works out.

Around the house... Things are feeling lighter in the midst of spring cleaning. 3 more rooms and I am done.

One of my favorite things... listening to my daughter and son talk nicely to each other.

A few plans for the rest of the week...getting more emails, still looking for a job, fill out some applications, get taxes done, shop for Easter and try to make my daughter's birthday more special.

Here is a picture I would like to share with you...
I love Picnik, a simple crop and a Ortonish Feature makes this picture look so different. I love the softness in the after shot and it took 5 seconds to do.
