Daybook, Tuesday March 23

FOR TODAY

Outside my window... a beautiful, spring day. The new fencing around the garden has gone up, seedlings are sprouting, the world is green!

I am thinking... about the laundry I need to start, and wondering what I should make for dinner.

I am thankful for... uplifting, encouraging music to brighten my day.

From the learning rooms... book work finished for the day, our last lesson was a read aloud of The City Mouse and Country Mouse- Teddy, Amie and Demi then drew a picture from the story and wrote a short narration.

From the kitchen...a pile of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, yum!

I am wearing...jeans and a t-shirt

I am creating...blog posts, and a letter template for tomorrow's creative writing for the 3 littles- a letter written from City Mouse to Country Mouse.

I am going... to the store for dinner fixins, to the library to pay a fine (darn!) and to Irish Dance with Meg (she is the dancer, I wait...)

I am reading...The trouble with Boys and Balancing Acts

I am hoping... that the laundry will magically get itself done..!

I am hearing...the kids are all watching an animal show on discovery channel

Around the house...things are a mess from the school day, need to do a clean up.

One of my favorite things...the blooming wisteria bush in the backyard, it is beautiful and smells heavenly.

A few plans for the rest of the week: P.E. test for Josie tomorrow, art tomorrow. Wednesday is also BLT bagel day, yay!!

A thought to share..

"Sacred cows make the best hamburger." - Mark Twain

Here is picture -thought I am sharing...

you are so sweet, it's so encouraging to read your comments!

I have fines all the time at the library, it was $20 today, ouch! The librarian was nice and took it down to $12..they do that sometimes, but not all the time!

reading the post by your sister, your house sounds like a nice place, too.
At 6:28 PM, Christa S said...: I love the daybook concept, what a fun blog to browse through. I saw this site on a blog hop and I definitely will be back. We homeschool as well and I noticed on your december day, you were grateful for the weather. We moved to Indiana but were home for Christmas. I TOO shared that gratitude!
Blessings, Christa
