I've gathered all of my Simple Woman's Daybook Posts and put them here, like a peek into my life. I was reading through them, and realized that I started linking up with Peggy in 2008, today is February 24, 2021. It's been 13 years since I started. I have not been consistent, but it's still fun to have all of the posts gathered on one page, even if it's just for me.
The comments for this page have been turned off, you can look up the label Simple Woman's Daybook if you want to comment on something you see, just look for the date when the label pops up.

For Today
Looking out my window
Trying to think on "Whatever is...."
Philippians 4:8
I'm tired due to not taking care of myself wisely. I tend to focus on the negative lately, not verbally as much as vocally, but enough that it is filtering into the physical side of things.
One of my favorite things
Dog and cat hair on my sofa and clothes.
I do vacuum, the goal is once a day, however
I saw a meme once that said,
"Rich people have fancy names on their clothes,
Happy people have dog/cat hair on their clothes.".
I love my furbabbies, we were not in anyway looking to add to our household, but 3 of them are rescues, 1 indoor cat, 1 outdoor cat, and the female dog. 2 of them are results of the rescue, 1 indoor cats and the male puppy (at this time he is 2 and weighs 80 lbs.)
I am wearing
I am considering watching The Chosen.
If you have seen this I would love for you to leave a comment. Currently I am very careful about Scripture being added to, and have read a cautious, yet gentle, warning regarding the show, and believe I can get past this, but for reasons I will not get into, I prefer Scripture Only. Having said that, I'm curious for any input.
Without God I am nothing,
With Him I can do all things.
Thank you Michelle Lesley for this post.
(my notes)
I am His child, and therefore I am precious to Him, however, even on my best day I still fall short, yet Jesus loves me. He loved me, and you, enough to go to the cross for me, and you too. No wonder all those pretty fluff memes just did not work for me, if anything I felt worse. If I stop and fill up on His word, it's like gas in my tank. Poor analogy I know, but it's as close as I can get.
Massive clean tomorrow, hubby was off work for over a week, and we just enjoyed the time together, so although I did clean daily, it is time for a scrub down.
Fred and his mother, Bessa.

For Today
February 22,2021
The warmth of the sun is a very welcome blessing today, a week ago SW Arkansas saw a low of 2 degrees. It's supposed to reach 65 today, and 68 tomorrow, with rain the rest of the week. There are still bits of snow on the ground from the 12 inches that fell here at our home.

Memories, always and forever, moment by moment, one hug, one kiss,
one smile, one tear at a time.

I am wearing
What I chose to dress myself in, I'm an adult, I can wear what I want.
Sorry for the "snarky" coming through,
I'm wearing work out clothes because they
are comfortable, and I liked the color.
I am listening to
who has started a movement called #theimperfectboss on IG.
I'm humbled by their honesty, and as a mother and grandmother just want to wrap each one in my arms and say "How very brave you are"!
I am hoping
That the heart of what these young women are revealing catches on, being real, being open, embracing each other "warts and all" as my generation says. We need to realize that imperfect should be "I'm Perfect just as I am" and impossible should be "I'm Possible" (Audrey Hepburn).
I am learning
That being 50 does not have to mean I can't learn new things, it's just a stepping stone in a wonderful journey. AND that I can listen to at least some of this newer music, truth be told, I'm enjoying it!

To bed early tonight.
I am wondering...
If we will actually have a winter here in NE TX.

Sunshine
I am learning

A favorite quote for today... "SO" this is from Madea's Big Happy Family, the bible according to Madea, when someone does something to you, you get them back and then say "SO", because the Bible says "Let the redeemed of the Lord say so". Now I know that's not what it means, but it does make me chuckle and God knows we could all use a chuckle and some serious lightening up.

A peek into my day...
This is Mrs. Pippens, she currently resides in the pasture (not ours) behind our house, her owners live down the road. We have nicknamed her TOUCHDOWN, can you tell why? I'm sorry I could not get closer, I'm just not brave enough to go into the pasture when there are more than Longhorn nearby and I may have to jump the fence, which is barbed wire.
Taylor Swift (on the left) and one of her friends were nearby and did not really look up to a visitor in the pasture, so I took the pictures on my phone from my side of the fence.
Some of the others hanging out in the pasture are Reba, Boot Scoot Boogie, Miranda (who was 2" short of having the longest horns at a show 2 years ago), Loretta Lynn, Cowboy Cassinova, Fancy, Lady Antebellum, can you see the theme here? I used to go out and have coffee with some pretty impressive names.

Outside My Window... The sunshine is warming the nip in the air, slowly.

I am thinking... It is time to switch to half decaf, I am far to dependant on cafine.
*
From the learning rooms...In Rome, headed for the birth of Christ, I am so excited....
*
I am thankful for... Intellegent people (nuf said)
*
From the kitchen... Perk, Perk, Perk, with sausage & Eggs
*
I am wearing... still in my robe, going on a field trip today, getting husband fed and out before getting ready.
*
I am creating... A place of peace and harmony.
*
I am going... To one of my favorite places to visit, Jefferson, TX, with my Mother-in-Law, my favorite travel buddy.
*
I am reading... I read Miss Jocelyn's Decoding the Proverbs 31 Woman last night, very insightful.
*
I am hoping... To find some Jadite dishes at a flea market for way under market value, so I can re-sell them on ebay and help pay off our land.
*
I am hearing... The news on one TV, the coffee perkalator, and music on the other TV, I am turning that one off.
*
Around the house... Husband talking to his mom, 22yo son getting ready to leave for work, 12yo son getting up, 10yo daughter washing her hair, mom is lining everyone out.
*
One of my favorite things... Going to Jefferson, TX with my MIL.
*
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: Search my materials on hand for good material to use for History, Rome-the birth of Christianity. Want to be in Rome at about 1 AD at Christmas time. We are currently at Julius Ceasar.
*
I don't have a picture to share right now, the only way I have to take pictures is my laptop and it is not practical to haul it around like a camera, sorry. Maybe I'll post one of our trip, if I remember to haul my camera with me.
*
Note.... We had a GREAT time, did not get to go looking for dishes, but I love old towns full of old buildings. This town has been around for, well since way before the civil war and is full of Bed & Breakfasts. Jefferson, TX used to be a port town, comparable in size to New Orleans at one time. It has spanish moss hanging from the trees and the people there are absolutely charming, as is the town. No pictures yet, sorry.
