The Simple Woman's Daybook, September 13

FOR TODAY  Tuesday, September 13, 2011
Outside my window...it's sunny, with a light breeze. It's also trash day, so the curb is lined with trash cans waiting to be emptied.

I am thinking...that I am tired, and I'd love a McD's caramel mocha. Also that I need to work with my 4yo on writing his name.

I am thankful...for my husband getting up each morning with the kids, so I can get some sleep.

From the learning rooms...Brennan working on his numbers with counting frogs.

In the kitchen...an almost empty coffee pot, dishes that need to get in the dishwasher, and the smell of toast.

I am wearing...jean capris, flip flops, and a gray 3/4-length shirt.

I am creating...a grocery list and menu plan.

I am going...to school later today to pick up my 7yo.

I am wondering...if prayers will be answered sooner than later.

I am reading...news online. That's it for right now. (shameful, I know)

I am hoping...to stay on program today with Weight Watchers and eat well.

I am looking forward to...the weekend. And vegging out with my husband tonight.

I am hearing...the baby monitor, my 4yo watching "Day of the Diesels", and a car passing by.

Around the house...I need to vacuum and dust, and like always, declutter. Put away laundry.

I am pondering...what to make for dinner next week. 

One of my favorite things...Fall weather.

A few plans for the rest of the week: grocery shopping, going to MI on Saturday.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

                          The reason I am tired, and the reason it's all worth it
