Yes, it's been a while! Thought I'd get back into the swing of things with one of my favorite link ups: The Simple Woman's Daybook . Join me?
For Today...
Outside my
window...
a pair of mallard
ducks are back, repurposing our winterized pool for their own personal pond
Oh, and just now, this....
I am thankful...
my daughter is back
in town again, after six months of solo trekking adventures in S.E. Asia!
I am learning...
about YL Essential Oils and enjoying my diffuser!
ahhh... Lavender...
I am wearing...
jeans, t shirt
(short sleeved) with a sweater close at hand, socks and slippers. Nothing that
would make me stand out in a crowd! It's
a blustery, cooler day outside. After several days of warm sunshine, this is
an adjustment! Socks to barefeet and back again!
I am creating...
a knitted comfort
throw for my older sister's birthday coming up in June.
I am going...
to the Gold Medal
Women's International Hockey game tonight! Canada vs USA
I am wondering...
..about decisions I
must make. There's always that balance between being true to my own needs/feelings/desires
and the needs/desires of others. What's the right thing to do..??
I am reading...
a number of books
(as usual). Looking forward to getting into
Presence
- Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges
by Amy Cuddy. Maybe it will give me some insight into what I am wondering (see
above)..
I am hoping...
for a clean bill of
health in the next little while! Time to do the annual bloodwork, etc.. and
more.
I am learning...
more about myself
through reading The
Enneagram: A Christian Perspective by Richard Rohr and Andreas Ebert.
Here's looking at you, Type Five!
In my garden...
the garlic is growing, and that's about it
right now. Enjoying the first
pop of color in my flower bed.
In my kitchen...
I have a Whole30 Paleo Minestrone soup/stew cooking in the crockpot. I
hope it's tasty!! Day 4 of Whole30. So far, so good.
A favorite quote
for today...
"Never confuse your perception of yourself
with the mystery that you really are accepted."
Brennan Manning, The
Ragamuffin Gospel
One of my favorite
things...
kicking back at the
end of the day, enjoying The Voice
on my iPad app
A peek into one of
my days...

A playlist I'm enjoying
on Spotify..
Acoustic Spring
That looks like a nice comforter for your sister (hope she doesn't read your blog). Always good to get the blood work, etc., done and get that clean bill of health :)
