The Simple Woman’s Daybook
ByI’ve enjoyed reading the posts in this meme at The Simple Woman and visiting their lovely days. It helps to remember the simple joys of daily living.
FOR TODAY
Outside my window…2 morning doves waddling below the bird feeder, tulips bursting with color, a cardinal in the tree teasing my cat
I am thinking…that I will enjoy the evening away from my computer
I am thankful for…my husband’s hard work, my son’s humor and my daughter’s creativity
From the kitchen…fresh strawberries and blueberries, sautéed asparagus with lemon and homemade chicken and rice crockpot soup
I am creating…a new simplicity course
I am going…to the Tulip Time parade
I am wearing…green gray jeans, a pinkish shirt with 3/4 sleeves, a green, pink and gold bracelet, and a moss green scarf because it was a bit chilly walking today
I am reading…The ZooKeeper’s Wife by Diane Ackerman
I am hoping…for another day of blue skies and an evening of rain
I am hearing…my computer fan, my teenager’s music
Around the house…is a bag of clothes for Goodwill, a bag of food for the post office food drive Saturday and a picture my daughter says needs to be updated
One of my favorite things…is walking on the beach
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week…2 Tulip Time parades, showing my son how to do a budget, continuing my Spending Fast and chatting with my daughter
Here is a picture thought I am sharing for you…

HELLO from London
Just stopped in to say hi quickly

but we’re having lots of fun – our friends have been wonderful!!!
Hi Beth! Thank you for your sweet comment! Rosamunde Pilcher’s books are usually set in England, but they are full of domestic details. I would suggest The Shell Seekers as a first read. Have a lovely day…
You mentioned that you cancelled your Blockbuster plan and hadn’t watched any movies since the beginning of the year except for what you borrowed from your father-in-law. I’ve got to tell you what I stumbled across. Our public library has movies – dvd and vcr. Old and new movies. When I pretty much exhausted our library I got this brilliant idea to see if I could borrow movies from the inter-library loan. (That’s when your library doesn’t have it, but they can borrow it from the network they are in.) I can access the library card catalogue from my computer at home and even place my requests. Couldn’t be any easier and the price can’t be beat. Check out your public library and see if they lend movies. As soon as I see the commercials on tv or the display in Wal-mart listing the movies that were at the theater 6 months ago and soon to be released on dvd I check the library’s card catalog and then put my request in.
