For today...

Outside my window...it's cool, clear, and sunny.

I am thinking...about having to go to the grocery store today.  Ugh.

I am thankful...that our garden is producing so well.

From the learning rooms...school is officially over - except for Math on Mondays.

In the kitchen... scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and Southwestern Bean Soup for supper. Also, putting cucumbers in salt brine. I love making pickles!!  :)

I am wearing...a jean skirt and a turquoise top.

I am creating...crocheting a white shawl for myself. I've been working on it since early spring, and I'm almost finished!  Next on my list is a baby blanket for my baby granddaughter due to arrive in August.  :)

I am going...to deliver a birthday gift to a dear friend today.

I am wondering...if our hens will ever hatch the eggs they're sitting on!

I am reading...the six volumes of Charlotte Mason. I don't think I'll ever get through all of them.

I am hoping...for a relaxing week-end.

I am looking forward to...being with my daughter and son-in-law when my granddaughter makes her entrance.  :')

I am hearing...our roosters crowing and our turkeys gobbling.

Around the house...laundry, laundry, and..did I mention laundry?  ;)

I am pondering...Philippians 4:8. I struggle with keeping my mind on the good things.

One of my favorite things...hearing the laughter of my children.


A photo to share... this photo was shared on a missionary friend's Facebook page. We could not get over  the size of this monster crocodile! I have no idea where it was taken, but he said that villagers were frequently disappearing. The Army was finally called in to kill it.


Hope you all have a wonderful week-end!
