Day Book entry

A new feature! My friend Kristina over at http://www.sweetpeawanderings.blogspot.com/ does this every once in a while and I just think it's a sweet glimpse into her life, so I'm stealing the idea for my blog, in hopes of doing it once a week, on Fridays as we get ready for our weekend. There are lots of other Day Books posted at http://www.thesimplewomansdaybook.blogspot.com/ via links. I do not post my link there because I'm trying to keep this blog just for family and friends, but please do go take a look at what other people are doing ... it's really kind of interesting (if you're nosy, like me!)

FOR TODAY, April 10

Outside my window... it looks cloudy and cool, but not raining as was predicted.

I am thinking... that it will be so much fun to have kids here tomorrow for an egg hunt

I am thankful for... daughters who thoroughly cleaned their playroom this morning

From the kitchen... eggs are boiling, coffee is brewing

I am wearing... yellow shirt, black pants and sneakers

I am creating... the new outline for my memoir that makes everything flow together much better

I am going... to call Kara soon and catch up on her life

I am reading... Paul Coelho's "The Witch of Portobello"

I am hoping... for good weather tomorrow, but it's not looking so good

I am hearing... "Tom and Jerry" on the television, Hannah talking to her dolls

Around the house... Hannah's playing with the dollhouse downstairs, Lizzie is watching the end of "Tom and Jerry" and I'm getting ready to vacuum

One of my favorite things... Penzey's spice catalog and the spices I get from it. Just had an awesome dinner made with a Turkish blend of spices

A few plans for the rest of the weekend... Brownie meeting Saturday morning, T.A. and family arriving in the afternoon, egg hunt frivolity, church on Sunday followed by dinner at Terry's house with more family, followed by taming children on sugar highs

Here is picture I am sharing...
