simple woman’s daybook

For Today...

Outside my window the sun is shining and a heavy blanket of snow has softened the landscape. It’s beautiful.

I am thinking of family and hoping all are holding up; my husband’s brother in law passed away this week, my daughter was in the ER the other night suffering from a bad case of pleurisy, her mother in law is in ICU this morning with a presumed stroke and my twin sister is awaiting results to confirm she doesn’t have cancer.

I am thankful for everything that makes life what it is, because without darkness, we would not know or appreciate the light.

From the kitchen I smell the spiciness of apple pie filling just made.

I am wearing my blue thermal nightgown and an apron, lol!

I am reading my “to do” list

I am hoping the weather warms up a bit and the roads stay clear.

I am creating pies; Dutch apple and apple cranberry.

I am hearing the refrigerator humming and the dog snoring.

Around the house... I am waiting for my daughter, her DH and my grandaughter to arrive with dogs in tow for the weekend.

One of my favorite things is not thinking too hard.

I am looking forward to a nice warm shower and a piece of pie and seeing my family.

A few plans for the weekend…attending BIL’s memorial service, feeding and housing the kids.

Hope your weekend is filled with love and light.
