Simple Womans Daybook 9/2

So excited to be joining in on this ! Let's get right to it!

FOR TODAY -

Outside my window - A plethora of GREEN ! The grass is lush & the trees are in full summer canopy . There are several busy grey squirrels ; a gentle reminder that all this verdant green will depart soon.

I am thinking - about trying to eat better and exercise . And my failed effort this morning. I only got 10 mins in to the video before my heart was pounding! But I also realize that is is 10 min more than I got done yesterday ! (or last week)

I am thankful - for a 3 day weekend with my hubby ! It was pretty wonderful ! :-)

In the kitchen - It's a bit of a disaster area. I need to clear the counters and do the floor . The grand baby is highly mobile these days and the floor being clean is a must ! I also have so yummy rib eyes to cook that didn't get cooked yesterday . Yeah steak ! (lol)

I am creating - I am trying to create a functioning bathroom . Our front bath got started being re-done before my mom passed away in April and it has just lingered un-finished. It is my project today to spend 2 hours in there painting trim , doors and vanity.

I am reading - "A Broken Hallelujah" it was a Kindle First freebie. It is a crime mystery , not something I would usually pick . Nor one I would recommend , due to language. I am a softy , I like historical romance and time-travel and books that challenge my theology and places I compromise and need God to point out my oversights . Weird combo , I know .

Around the house - I am SO wanting to put some fall flowers and decorations out ! It is too early , but I am making my plans ! I also want to make a cute little burlap garden flag I saw at my hair dressers house. Very cute ! If I get to do it I will try to post a picture next week.

I am wearing - No make up and comfy clothes . Black yoga carpi's and a teal t-shirt with my beloved Sketch-Air shoes. No plans to see anyone anytime soon , and the dogs don't care! lol

Last one...Plans for the week - finish the bathroom . And perhaps work on getting my bedroom in better shape. But I want to concentrate on the bathroom ... then I can put my painting supplies away for a while . (just finished a bedroom last week ... boy,is that a story for another day !!)

Have a lovely week Ladies ! Don't forget to check out the other Day Book entries . There are several lovely blogs to read and explore! Go HERE to find them.

100Hello! SO nice to meet you! Thank you for stopping by the blog earlier today.

I enjoy a lot of the same genres when it comes to reading material. And I appreciate your honesty about the book you are currently reading.

I enjoyed your day book. Thank you for visiting mine. I too am itching to begin decorating for fall. Here in Florida, we won't see fall temps until sometime in October if we're lucky. I'll probably break down and start decorating before then though. Have a blessed day.

Love the description of everything outside your window. So peaceful. Lovely to think God made it all for US! Blessed, indeed. I felt quite grateful for the three day weekend with my husband as well. Smiling tonight. Thanks for sharing! Jessie
