Usually, I have a super-abundance of ideas to blog about and not anywhere near enough days in which to put the blogging. That’s still probably true, but for the past several weeks I’ve had no time to organize my thoughts into blog format.
I’ve been saved by the never-ending Haggadah series (which was written as one long post about a month ago and then split into what you’ve gotten over the past several weeks)-but my pre-prepared posts have run out.
I’m officially on empty.
Enter the Simple Woman’s Daybook, a lovely look at what’s going on today.
Outside my window…
Darkness. Darkness when I left for work and darkness when I arrived back home.
I am thinking…
That self-pity is not an attractive look on me.
I am thankful…
That God loves me enough to bring me into difficult seasons.
In the kitchen…
Leftover dishes from the weekend.
I am wearing…
This evening’s dinner on my shirt. One of the (many) down-sides to eating on the run.
I am creating…
My Haggadah for the Seder I’ll be celebrating this weekend.
I am going…
Crazy.
I am wondering…
Whether I will be able to get enough done tomorrow to allow me to actually take off the day I allotted as vacation (to prepare for my Seder) this week.
I am reading…
Without a Doubt by Kenneth Richard Samples
I am hoping…
That I can wake up at a decent hour tomorrow morning.
I am looking forward to…
Going to a friend’s wedding in Colorado in a few weeks.
I am learning…
About Prader-Willi, the Trinity, and woodworking
Around the house…
Clothes that haven’t been laundered, sawdust and splinters from making some leaves for my dining room table, and a yard that’s begging for a cutting
I am pondering…
The number of hours in the day
A favorite quote for today…
“Your circumstances are not your life. Christ Jesus is your life.” ~Cindy
One of my favorite things…
A warm bath on a chilly night.
A few plans for the rest of the week:
Taking Friday off (maybe?), having 20+ over for a Seder, decorating some blown eggs (maybe?), and seeing my brother (but not his new wife, sad face) before he leaves for Okinawa
A peek into my day life…
You don’t want to see my day, unless you’re really keen on calculations of weight loss and tube feeding formulations or completing reports or auditing supplement use…
But I’m sure no one would ever NOT want to look when I’ve got a picture of the Little Miss to share.
She came up for my 27 Dresses birthday party a couple weeks back and I had fun taking pictures of her after the party was over.
Don’t forget to check out more daybooks here.
“I am thankful…
That God loves me enough to bring me into difficult seasons.”
You are mature.
I’m still working on that one. I know it to be true, but my heart still fights against it at times….
Thanks, Rebekah.
What Lisa Notes said.
I hope you do get a (productive) Friday off from work.
Going crazy? Don’t I know it!
I’ll pray for you this week as you juggle your many responsibilities. Table leaves thrown in!
Wow, several things about this post! First your introduction seems to be that of many of us who enjoy the blog world. I have been so busy that I can’t seem to put a blog together. When the Lord gives me something I have to jot it down so that I can post it later. You must be putting in some crazy hours (dark to dark…) Eating on the run is “bad” for you! (driving, choking…) LOL! boy are we in trouble…
What? You’re only reading one book? It is true! You are crazy busy lady! Preparing a Seder celebration! How fun! And I am with the other ladies…I am still finding it difficult to be thankful for difficult seasons. sounds like you are busy for mostly good things. Praying you have a good week this week…I am far behind in my blog reading!
