THE SIMPLE WOMAN'S DAYBOOK MONDAY OFFERING 3/30/09

FOR TODAY 30 March 2009

Outside My Window...neighbor kids playing basketball across the street

I am thinking...that things are so peaceful.

I am thankful for...friends ;-)

From the kitchen...stir-fry

I am wearing...crocs, black underarmor socks, liz claiborne jeans, lime green camisole, and black long sleeve rugby shirt.

I am creating...scrapbook for my wedding photos (finally after 12 years LOL).

I am going...to philly on tuesday, maybe to stay a few days - need a little quiet time.

I am reading...still savoring cold mountain.

I am hearing...my husband tell a story about when his dad was in portugal in the air force.

Around the house...arrrrgggghhhhh, need to swiffer the dog hair tumbleweeds from under the sofa.

One of my favorite things...driving with the windows down and jimmy buffett cranked up!

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: taking it easy ...

Here is picture thought I am sharing...

Ehrmann Tapestry - Herb Garden, designed by Margaret Murton

my stepmom, adri, had started this as a seat cover for a bench. the purple-shaded area was completed before she passed away from breast cancer four years ago in january. my goal is to complete the rest of stitchwork for my father's birthday at the end of april. i have already gotten some of it done (but not much, as you can see below the shaded part), so i told him he may get it for Christmas instead, or maybe Christmas after next LOL. she was so talented and just a groovy stepmom - this won't be perfect but i hope she will like it, too...
