The Simple Woman’s Daybook

This is a weekly Monday meme I have seen on several blogs, and it looks like a nice way to start the week. The Guidelines are at here at The Simple Woman, who created and hosts this meme.

Outside my Window…it is a bright sunny day gearing up to be another scorcher.

I am thinking…about the things I need to do this week.

I am thankful for…my husband’s being a good father.

From the kitchen…I had a fried egg sandwich this morning: we’ll have a chicken and wild rice dish for dinner tonight.

I am creating…a cross stitch piece that I think I will be able to finish this week.

I am going…to lunch with my oldest today.

I am wearing…a blue plaid dress.

I am reading…South Carolina by Yvonne Lehman and The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas.

I am hoping…to get my hair cut soon.

I am hearing…an assortment of birds outside and my son’s video game inside.

Around the house…I need to declutter.

One of my favorite things…is the cookie recipe in the post below.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week…the decluttering I mentioned earlier plus an intense cleaning of the stove and hood plus some computer-related work.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing for you… from Father’s Day.

Great pic! I just got my hair cut too!

I’m glad you decided to join. I am enjoying my visit here with the “grands”. I also enjoyed my time with the rest of the family on Friday. However, I will be happy to get back home on this Friday. Home is always best. It is a challenge sometimes to spend time here but mostly they are old enough to not be a problem. I’m looking forward to tomorrow. It is a day just for my daughter and me except for the lunch part. We’re planning to make it a long day.
