Daybook–14 Sept

FOR TODAY…

Outside my window… dark, but it was a beautiful day! I can’ t seem to get on the ‘puter during the day any more

I am thinking…of all the things I need to get done in the next hour while I’m still alone

I am thankful for…my mom

I am wearing…frayed but flattering Gap jeans, a Polo tee (a deal from Goodwill!) and fall toenail polish

I am remembering…Aviana: What’s a dot tree? Me: I don’t know. Where did you hear it? Aviana: It’s in the Bible. Me: Really? Can you tell me a little more? Aviana: Yes, when the Isrealites were wandering in the wilderness, God told them not to commit a dot tree.

I am creating…lesson plans and menus and a layout I started Saturday and haven’t been able to get back to it

I am going…to clean up the kitchen…as soon as I’m done with this (and some other stuff)

I am reading…A Greater Glory and The Omnivore’s Dilemma and A PhD in Parenting. I’d also like to recommend Refiner’s Fire, which I read this weekend. It was riveting, and historically accurate.

I am hoping…I feel less restless soon

On my mind…conflict–imagined or real, or real, but I just don’t want to deal with it…cryptic, I know

From the learning rooms…William Tell, the Middle Ages

Noticing that…we have had *perfect* weather for the last two weeks, and I am really missing my husband

Pondering these words…

From the kitchen…mini-cheddar meat loaves, a hot dog roast, steak (gotta use up last year’s beef before this year’s is ready!)

Around the house…trying to FLY

One of my favorite things~the way my nails look in a French manicure.

A few plans for the rest of the week:a haircut, hanging out at a friend’s all day, MOMS group, the requisite library visit…

From my picture journal…

My booted ballerinas
