The Simple Woman’s Daybook

FOR TODAY~ August 25th    

Outside my Window... I see my late-summer herb garden. Some of it looks good and some of it looks quite sad and forlorn and brown. Many bugs, big and small are enjoying the apple mint as well as a few tiny birds that take a moment to perch on the strong stalks.

I am thinking... of how to arrange the errand running and To-do’s for today. Making a mental list of the packing Maiden needs to do for her trip and other tidbits of things that are important to keeping our home running smoothly.

I am thankful for... my husband. ‘Nuff said.

From the kitchen... breakfast has come and gone. Lunch is Diner Dinner- a fancy way for me to say we’ll be picking and choosing from leftovers. Supper is part 2 of Chicken Cacciatore. Go here for the entire week’s menu.

I am creating... and polishing our school schedules

I am going... crazy. Actually not quite. We’ll be going to Little Busy Town for errand running in just a wee bit.

I am wearing... Royal blue T and blue jeans (with a few holes).

I am reading... I need to go to the library and get a few more books!

I am hoping... for some quiet down time just for me later today.


I am hearing... Mr. Conductor making up songs as he plays and the scratch of pencils as the girls do math.

 


One of my favorite things... snuggling.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week... Getting Maiden off on her trip with Nana and PawPaw. Polishing and finishing last minute school prep. Spending tons of time with the kids and hubby enjoying this “last week” of summer.

Around the house... Lots of laundry, beginning packing for Maiden’s 3 day trip. Bringing down the needed school books to the office for the official start of school next week. Working on planning our special ABC back-to-school meal.

Thanks for sharing your daybook. I had to laugh because I put on my daybook that I was going crazy, too! Great minds think alike.... Hope your week isn't too crazy!

The Wagner Clan

My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady

My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.

DD11- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.

DD8- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added spice of flavor to our family.

DS4- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He likes to think he's in charge and often is! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
