The Simple Woman's Daybook ~ March 30, 2009

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW... Bright sunshine

I AM THINKING... I have many comments and emails I should be answering.

I AM THANKFUL FOR... My family, and being loved.

FROM THE KITCHEN... Hot tea and fresh pink grapefruit juice

I AM WEARING... Pink pajamas

I AM CREATING... nothing at the moment, trying to recuperate from this cold.

I AM GOING... to be celebrating when I feel better.

I AM READING... catalogs.

I AM HOPING... the David Austin climbing roses arrive shortly.

I AM HEARING... Birds chirping, and Food Network

AROUND THE HOUSE... it looks like Spring!

ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS... fresh, cut flowers aaround the house every week.

A FEW PLANS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK... catching up with emails & comments, getting over this cold, and spending some time in the garden.

A picture thought I'd like to share:

Linda, I'm KICKING myself for not having some of your Jewish Pennicilin in the fridge or freezer right now.

Sandi, thank you for stopping by and commenting. You are so kind and thoughtful. :)

Jain, Sounds like you had a nice day yesterday, (and GREAT shopping!!!) I hope the winds subside. (And that they are not whipping your gardens to shreds.)

Shelby! I'm so happy you are back! How are you feeling? I hope everything is mending nicely.

I've got a lot of catching up to do as soon as I throw this cold off track. Thank you again for stopping by! You've all really cheered me up. ((hugs)); March 30, 2009 at 7:01 PM
