The Simple Woman's Daybook, 10/18



I know, originally the Simple Woman post was intended for Tuesdays, but I love doing it on Mondays. It helps bring my week in focus. Hope no one minds. ~ Cheryl

Outside my window... ~ we are finally getting a little fall color, which I love!

I am thinking... ~ about Sarah’s story. If you haven’t a clue, you really need to head over to Linda’s blog and add a few lines! (I think I am in love with this little family!)



Oh, and Linda is doing a Christmas cookie recipe book! If you want to join the fun, go here.

I am thankful for... ~ for the prayers I’ve seen answered this week and I am looking forward to see how God answers many more.

I am wearing... ~ my pajamas, still ~ perhaps, all day.

I am remembering... ~ a little boy named Kyle

I am praying for… ~ continuing to pray for baby Alex and his family and for each of you!

I am going... ~ to be busy this week! I will be making chow chow (green tomato relish to you non Okies), drying some red cayenne pepper and trying to figure out what to do with more eggplant.

I am currently reading... ~ only have time for my Bible for now

I am hoping... ~ our beautiful fall weather continues

On my mind... ~ my new grandbaby that is due any day!

Noticing that... ~ there are less than 100 days left in this year! Amazing!

Pondering these words… ~ “I am only one, But still I am one. I cannot do everything, But still I can do something; And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do” – - – Edward Everett Hale

From the kitchen... ~ butternut squash and something good I hope!


Around the house... ~ I am (still) de-cluttering
Worked a little on the wall covering in the kitchen this weekend

I am creating… ~ I’m not, HE IS!

One of my favorite things… ~ butternut squash! I love it! (Who knew?) This is the first year we have tired it.

From the Learning Room… ~ Fall break, but we will be working some or special projects!


A picture to share… ~

I've seen this several times around the net and I love it. I think I am going to do something with it for the granddaughters. Any ideas?

May your day be blessed!

  2. Thank you for the nice comment about my Long Table Party. This was actually the first one I have hosted (the idea came from my brother), but I hope to make it an annual event. I love, love, love the quote in your blog today about being only one. I will have to copy it and put it on my bathroom mirror to see each day. Good luck with the new baby. Have a great week.
