The Simple Woman's Daybook

For Today~ Monday October 20, 2010

Outside my window~

is early morning, drippy gray. What is usually wildfire season is now thunder storm and lightening show season. Its a nice change.

I am listening to~
quiet. Nothing else.

I am thinking~

that my 111.75-138.25 hours of weekly activities don't quite fit into my 96 waking hours. Hmmmm.

I am inspired by~

smart friends that I want to grow up to be like.

I am pondering~

priorities and what is really needed, not just wanted.

I am wondering~

if I can be just a little bit better, just a little bit kinder, just a little bit more patient, just a little bit more consistent and just a little bit less busy.

I am watching~

Autism-The Musical, Food Inc., Arranged (a great, cute movie about a Muslim girl and Orthodox Jewish girl that befriend each other as they both go through the process of an arranged marriage. Loved it! Also available on Netflix instant.) Temple Grandin and Freedom Writers.

I am reading~

Ugh. My book bag is out of control. I just finished Frankenstein and am working on no less than five other books. I have a big book post in the works.

From the kitchen~

Right now I am nibbling sourdough toast and sipping Tension Tamer tea. Yesterday morning it was hot, buttered popcorn for breakfast. I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about puffed pancakes, so that is definitely in the near future.

A picture thought I am sharing~
