Outside my window

Outside my window today ... 

Rain, a very heavy downpour

I am thinking... 

how quickly things have changed. One minute everything as normal next total lockdown and now we are slowly coming out of it although Covid 19 is still around, so much change but just look at the local park ... beautiful 

I am thankful...

I can chat to family on zoom, watch church services on YouTube and have church zoom homegroup and prayer meetings and ladies get togethers 

In the kitchen...

Having an oven yo cook in after it broke just before lockdown

I am wearing...  

Cropped Jean's and sleeveless top. It's very warm and we may have thunder later

I am creating...

Pencil boxes for kids at church to remind them in lockdown they are still loved and crocheting a blanket for my granddaughter. Hopefully she'll not be married before I fj ish it .. I'm rather slow

I am going...

To do a bible study on Monday with my dear friend Irene 

I am wondering...

Why my cat is so strange, he drools

I am reading...

About Deborah and Barak in my bible Judges 4 and 5

I am hoping...

Covid19 the Corona virus will go

I am looking forward to...

Spending more time with family and being able to be in church with my brothers and sisters in the Lord

I am learning...

More about my ancestors as I trace my family tree

Around the house...

Still trying to declutter but it's an ongoing task

I am pondering...

What I should craft next

One of my favorite things... 

Being able to see  my grandchildren 

A few plans for the rest of the week ...

Bible study with Irene on Monday and zooming with my brothers, sisters and nieces,

Zoom prayer meeting mid week.

Exercise, a daily walk round the park 

The Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window ...
is a world of white, snow has fallen and everything looks lovely.

I am thinking ...
how cold I am as I had a whopping gas bill and I've turned the heating low

I am thankful for ...
knowing a wonderful Saviour and part of a loving family

From the learning rooms ...
The Lord supplies and meets my every need - even getting me a vacuum cleaner

From the kitchen ...
the washing machine needs emptying

I am wearing ...
jeans, two jumpers, two pair of socks - I look frightful but hey it's a cold day

I am creating ...
an enamelled necklace

I am going ...
to go and make a cup of tea which might just warm me up

I am reading ...
and being blessed in Ephesians

I am hoping ...
we have more snow and school is closed tomorrow

I am hearing ... my stomach telling me it is past lunch

Around the house ...
the curtain pole fell down this morning and my vacuum cleaner blew up but praise God my friend Ri has a spare vac that she said I can have

One of my favorite things ... being around my 2 adorable grandsons

A few plans for the rest of the week ... Babysitting figures largely in the plans, school is back tomorrow after being closed due to snow

Here is picture thought I am sharing... (some of my lovely family - taken at my mam's 80th birthday party made more special because my youngest sister flew over from America)
