The Simple Woman’s Daybook: October 15, 2012

Simple Woman's Daybook

FOR TODAY October 15, 2012

Outside my window… dark. It was sunny and in the 80’s when Daniel and I were out having adventures today. I’d kind of like the 70’s back, please.

I am thinking… that this is one heck of a baseball game! (Giants-Cardinals, Game 2)

I am thankful… to attend the wedding of Jon and Susie this weekend. Not only did I get to see one of my dearest friends (finally!!!!!!) tie the knot (after 13 years), I got to see college friends who I hadn’t seen in 11-12 years, meet the tween daughter of two of them, and meet the girlfriend of another. I got to see and hear one of my favorite professors play organ and I got to experience a lovely Chinese wedding banquet complete with lion dancers.

In the kitchen… ramen.

I am wearing… navy blue maternity shirt and running shorts.

I am creating… NaNoWriMo ideas.

I am going… to hopefully head to the zoo tomorrow with the bear child depending on how I feel. (He has today and tomorrow off of school.)

I am wondering… when we’re actually going to have a real autumn. I miss autumn in the Midwest.

I am reading… A Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling. No, it isn’t as good as the Harry Potter books thus far but I’m not all that far in.

I am hoping… the Giants win Game 3 in St. Louis.

I am looking forward to… my massage on Friday.

Around the house… vacuuming to do.

I am pondering… when/if I should see a doctor about my post-nasal drip.

A favorite quote for today… ??A Christian society is not going to arrive until most of us really want it: and we are not going to want it until we become fully Christian. I may repeat “Do as you would be done by” till I am black in the fact, but I cannot really carry it out till I love my neighbour as myself: and I cannot learn to love my neighbour as myself till I learn to love God: and I cannot learn to love God except by learning to obey Him. And so, as I warned you, we are driven on to something more inward – driven on from social matters to religious matters.?? — C.S. Lewis

One of my favorite things… a good dinner with friends.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Morning Prayer on Wednesday, Daniel’s eye appointment on Thursday, and a massage on Friday. Oh… and watching whatever Giants-Cardinals games are televised locally.
