Simple Woman's Day Book

FOR TODAY: December 5, 2011


Outside my window. . . . .pretty and sunny. The temps are expected to climb to the 70's today.

I am thinking. . . . .I want to make some cookie dough this week in preparation for cutting out some Christmas cookies.

I am thankful. . . . .that God is providing for Mom and I this month since money is so short.

In the kitchen. . . . .just made some steel cut oatmeal for breakfast. Not sure yet what I'll fix for dinner.

I am wearing. . . . .tan pants, blue t-shirt and flip flops.

I am creating. . . . .working on my blogs - new looks and new content.

I am going. . . . .no plans this week but I'm sure there will be the trip to the grocery store.

I am wondering. . . . .If Mandy, my silky terrier will ever be potty trained! Some days she does well and other days, it's a struggle.

I am reading. . . . .my Bible and Off The Beaten Track - Tennessee

I am hoping. . . . .to get my mother's Christmas gift almost finished.

I am looking forward to. . . . .spending time with friends - an upcoming Christmas party for church and perhaps a day at Disney with a friend.

I am hearing. . . . .very quiet with an occasional bark from Mandy when she hears the neighbors.

Around the house. . . . .I'm thinking of what to do with a string of lights that I didn't use. I should be able to decorate something somewhere with them!

I am pondering. . . . .finances unfortunately not only for right now but in preparation for my move next year.

One of my favorite things. . . . .a day at Disney World with a friend.

A few plans for the rest of the week:. . . . .catching up on things at home, to finish decorating and maybe some cookie baking.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...




An unexpected surprise - a tree in my backyard was full of tangerines. I never noticed it before in all the years I've lived here. The fruit is not very sweet but I'm not complaining. It's still fairly good and a welcomed treat.

Thank you, Peggy for hosting this Day Book!

  3. Hi Melanie, I love your new header. Did you make it? It has been very cold for us at nights. Tonight it will be 31 and tomorrow 29. Very unusual for us here in So CA. I think small dogs have more accidents, that is what the vet said. Have a great week. Hugs
