for today: Monday, 23rd July 2012

Joining in with: The Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window... the sun is shining - a perfect winter's day.

I am thinking... about the challenges that come with an almost 11 year old growing up in the madness of technology and social media.

I am thankful... for my simple childhood.

In the kitchen... there is plenty to do.

I am wearing... my favourite knitted shawl - my Abyssal

I am creating... another knitted Milo vest for my youngest.

I am going... to get it finished by tomorrow, hopefully.

I am wondering... what meals to cook for dinner this week.

I am reading... 'The Bride Stripped Bare' 

I am hoping... for more sunshine this week.

I am looking forward to... a parcel arriving in the post this week.

I am learning... to be more patient. 

Around the house... there is dust from the wood fire, it's on the to-do list.

I am pondering... the best way to handle a tricky situation. 

A favorite quote for today... "Action is the foundational key to all success." ~ Pablo Picasso

One of my favorite things... is to have an early morning walk on the beach with my dog.

A few plans for the rest of the week: some sewing, seed planting, baking, and exercise!!

A peek into my day... a photo from yesterday morning's walk on the beach.
