~~It's Thursday~~

 

~~It's Thursday~~

Outside My Window~  It's cool this morning.  But the sun is shining.  Maybe it will be a nice day.  More rain comes tomorrow. 

 I Am Thankful For~    My job. 

I Am Wearing~  A green robe, my nightshirt...bare toes.  Will be changing soon to a pair of capri's and a short sleeve tee and my tennis shoes.

  On my Prayer List~  Our bachelor friends.  Wisdom.  The future.

I Am Creating~ German Chocolate Cake for my birthday boy.  I think we will make a trip to Sam's Club for a book I spied ~

 

 

 

 

 

 

That book and a nice blue, short sleeved shirt will be his birthday presents.  We may go to dinner and a movie tomorrow night.

I Am Enjoying~ sealedbygrace has been reading and recommending The Mitford Series.  These books have been my chosen reading for over a week.  I have devored three books in the series so far.  What a great read!

From The Kitchen~   Verticle roasted chicken and spaghetti salad.  A summer type meal!

 From The Learning Room~  Reading, Reading, Reading!  Only a few pages of actual work left!

   I am looking forward to~  Monday morning!!  We'll sleep in a bit and head out to this place.  I think we are going to stop at Cracker Barrel for breakfast and take our sweet time arriving.  I am looking forward to swimming and leisurely walks by the lake.  I don't think there will be too much activity here as school is still in session in the area and it's during the week.

  1. Thanks so much for sharing the website and the blogs.  If you are a coffee drinker, you don't know the importance of a good cup of tea.    I am passing on the other blog to my DIL it looked great for homeschoolers.  I love, love, love the stuff from  countrydoor, however some of it seems a bit pricey to me.  But fantastic ideas to be gleaned from it!  Thanks again.

  4. @floridayankees - Life of an episcopalian (sp?) minister in a small town with the plan of salvation included clearly at least once in each book.  It's a good old fashioned decent read.

  6. So glad you're enjoying the series. I have to get back to reading the book I'm on. I just keep getting interrupted. Hopefully, I'll be able to return to it this weekend!
