The Simple Woman's Daybook, Monday, March 9, 2015



For today...Monday, March 9, 2015


Outside my window...it is a gorgeous, sunny afternoon with the temperature around fifty degrees. There is still snow on the ground, but it's melting fast! I love the mild winter we had since we moved over 800 miles south!

I am thinking...that it's hard to believe that we moved here at the end of July and it's close to the middle of March! We've been in this apartment since just before Thanksgiving. I haven't unpacked everything yet!

I am thankful...for God's mercy. He loves us more than I could ever imagine, and I'm grateful.

From the kitchen...leftover Italian sub sandwich. :)

I am wearing...a short-sleeved yellow top and a pair of denim shorts.

I am creating...this blog post. :)

I am going to...hopefully get some rest this week before our trip out of state on Friday for our middle daughter's wedding on Saturday!

I am wondering...what kind of new job my husband will get. He's working part-time now and looking for a full-time job. I wish I could work, but I can't right now due to fibromyalgia.

I am hoping...I remember to bring everything on the trip for the wedding.

I am hearing...
a home renovation show on cable tv.

I am looking forward to...the wedding and the reception!

Around the house...it's very quiet. I like quiet. :)

A favorite quote for today..."The first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another. The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month." Henry Van Dyke. This was very true where we moved from, but I'm confident that the first spring day will be much closer to the first day of spring here.

One of my favorite things...is having something very easy for lunch or dinner. I don't like to cook, so an easy meal is great!

A few plans for the rest of the week...my focus is getting things together for the trip. Thanking God even now that the weather forecasts for here and there look great - no snow, ice, or freezing rain!

A picture thought I am sharing...


My middle daughter's wedding cake topper! I love it!

  1. The cake topper is so cute! Love it!

    Ah, to wear shorts again. Where I am seems like a long way away. I do love your quote about Spring, and it is true. Just because the calendar says Spring doesn't mean it feels like it.

    I like the quiet, too. I do my best thinking then.

    Hope the job situation improves as soon as you all get back from the wedding!
