A Woman’s Daybook

For Thursday, June 4, 2009

Outside my window...We have been in quite the heat wave – it’s about 90 today, and has been hot and sunny for over the week. Allegedly it will cool down and rain is moving in. I also have quite the sunburn to show for my time in the sun. All is well now, as I have a tube of new sunscreen
I am thinking...that I need to be more consistent about blogging. I love to read everyone’s posts, and the discussion that ensues when I blog, so why don’t I do it more?
I am thankful for...family visiting next week, and for the C-man graduating High School on Thursday.
From the learning rooms…See above – graduation next week. Pretty much no learning going on near as I can tell for either of the boys. Did I mention it is really sunny?
From the kitchen...Our first CSA box of the year arrived yesterday; I’m planning on a salad with feta, nuts and berries and bread
I am wearing... a black linen skirt and a black, tan and white striped polo shirt. And, of course, my black Clarks sandals (actually, that's incorrect - I should say, with my black Clarks kicked off and near my chair)
I am creating...I was able to scrap over the weekend and have a few pages to finish up. I need to make some cards tonight; I’ve been working on getting them planned out in my head. I mailed the ATC swap yesterday, so once they start arriving, I’ll post the projects.
I am going...to Pentecost Vigil at our parish’s Chapel in the Foothills. Sunday, our parish’s Pentecost will not be held there, but the afterwards potluck should be.
I am reading...An utterly forgettable book about Jane Seymour, Plain Jane. It’s pleasant, but nothing stands out about it.
I am hoping...to blog more.
I am hearing...Mariners games on the radio as our cable needs to be upgraded and the first appointment we could get was late next week. (This is not happening right now, it’s an off day)
Around the house...Our cat needs hypoallergenic food. Dh and I have been medicating her twice a day, which is a two person job. Thankfully, she is doing very well on the meds and new diet, and is healing up nicely.
One of my favorite things...that moment when you get into a warm car – it gets too hot almost immediately lately, but there’s something about sitting in the sun that feels good (especially after our winter)
A few plans for the rest of the week – I always answer this on the “I am going…” spot, so see above.
