A Simple Woman

Outside my window... Sun! (After three days of driving rain, it's delightful!) 
I am thinking... Yikes! I left this one blank. Well, I am thinking lots of thinks that should not be shared on a sweet little blog like this.☺

I am thankful... That John is feeling better after three days of feeling blah. 

I am wearing...black jeans and a white tee shirt

I am creating...wrap-around blouses for a couple of two-year-old great-grandgirlies.

I am going...upstairs to the sewing room and to Joann's later for cute buttons. 

I am wondering... Not again! (Yes, left blank.) 

I am reading...finishing up To Kill a Mockingbird. Love this book. It's a re-read in anticipation of Harper Lee's soon-to-be-released new book. 

I am hoping...that I don't mess up the buttonholes. =/

I am learning...how to make children's clothing. Beginner level, of course. It may or may not be easier than learning German, the learning of which I have left in the dust.

In my garden... the boleros have started to bloom.

I look forward to this every year. Yes, they are hot, hot, hot. I'm hoping the "fog" will help not put your eye out.
In my kitchen... a crockpot of chicken soup with kidney beans

In the homeschool room... *add if you would like {here is where homeschool moms can share a bit about their homeschooling moments} I left this here for those who homeschool. I didn't know that this was a feature of The Simple Woman Daybook.

A favorite quote for today...I saw the cutest quote at *Happyone's*  the other day: You can always tell when two people are best friends because they are having more fun than it makes sense for them to be having. ~Unknown
Isn't that just the truth?!

A peek into one of my days...They begin and end early...usually up by six and usually in bed by ten. The first thing I do in the morning is feed the cat. Fioré is a yowler. John serves me coffee in the morning and sometimes a dish of ice cream in the evening; otherwise, I serve him for the rest of the day. He seems to like that. ☺ I do my chores in the morning, sit with John during his lunch hour, spend the afternoon on my projects, either inside or outside. We often watch Everybody Loves Raymond at suppertime and Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy from 7–8 pm. What an exciting life! ☺

One of my favorite things...is figuring out ways to make a home from little to nothing.

↑Just like these wasps are doing...ahem↑
P.S. Thank you for all the nice, encouraging things you say. John and I both appreciate them! You are a wonderful blogging buddy!

A happy mid-week to you!
