The Simple Woman's Daybook


For Today


Looking out my window
and I see my porch calling for me to come out with my coffee and enjoy the day.
I was standing at my back door when I took this picture!

I am thinking
of all the activities already on my calendar for the holiday season.

I am thankful
for Mr D...he puts the drops in my eyes because I'm a wimpy old lady who can't do it without blinking and closing my eyes and making the drops go everywhere but into my eyes.

One of my favorite things
God Sightings, I love when things happen and you KNOW it was Him.

I am creating
not much right now.

I am wearing
pj's

I watched 
First Assembly of God facebook broadcast this morning.

I am hoping
our country will turn back to God.

I am learning
to say 'no' and not feel guilty about it.

In my kitchen
is a big window by my kitchen table.  If I'm not on the porch with my coffee, I'm sitting here with my coffee and watching the world go by.

In the school room
please don't stop teaching cursive and bring back the Lord's prayer every morning.  

In my garden
the flowers are going away and so are some of the leaves. Not to worry, they'll be back next spring.

Post Script
This picture made me laugh. . . I love dogs!

My quote today is from Jesus Christ Himself.
It touches my heart with hope and peace.
and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.
Matthew 28:20b

A Moment From My Day
Mr D and I love to get in the car and ride around...always checking out different areas to see what's new. (seldom anything new, but we look for it anyway!)
You better stop, this street dead ends at Sylvan Bay!

Closing Notes
Going to close with this bit of advice...
The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket

Until Next Time
Live Life Joyously

  2. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I love the bible verse you quoted; He is with us every moment ... even to the end of the age. What a comforting thought! Praying for a speedy recovery for your eyes. I too have a large kitchen window that I sit at daily & enjoy the sunshine. God bless you both.

  4. I like your Post Script ( innocent looking dog).
    I appreciate that you take time to sit on the porch or by the window to look at the world. So many people are WAY too busy to do just that.

  5. Enjoyed your post today. I'm glad your husband puts your eye drops in for you. It takes focus to get it in the eye and those little bottles are quite hard to squeeze. I really love the light in your mornings and the lovely place where you can sit outside and have your coffee.

  6. p.s. I forgot to say that I love your scripture verse. We sure do need that comfort in this troubled time.

  7. Hi Mary,
    Many children can't read cursive today. It's really kind of sad. So much will be lost to them.
    Your kitchen window is great. What a wonderful place to sit and watch.
    I enjoyed the puppy and the fainting tree. That does happen you know ;)
    Have a lovely Monday.

  9. The dog funny made me laugh out loud! John and I love to ride around several times a week. We sometimes end up at DQ for an ice cream! Today our sky was so blue and it warmed up to 60. I enjoyed sitting on the porch late this aft.
    Have a blessed evening. xo

  12. I loved your day book thoughts Mary! So nice to be able to step out on your back porch and enjoy the beautiful weather or look at it from your beautiful kitchen window. My husband I love to take drives too! I always enjoy the fun smiles that you share!
