The Simple Woman's Daybook--October 5, 2009

Outside My Window ...

Another lovely fall day in central Ohio--a bit of a breeze, sunny, mid 60s. Perfect. 

***

I am listening to...
Loreena McKennit, "The Book of Secrets"

***

To Live the Liturgy...

Rosary, Magnificat, Bible reading, classes

***
To Fit and Happy...

Gym and ballet class. I feel so much better than I did last week, the gym will be happening. 

***

I am thankful for...
A few days to recover and get back on track.
***

I am pondering ...

How really good this smoked milk chocolate with marshmallow ice cream is. 

***

From the kitchen ...

I'm on the "milkshake, ice cream and pasta" diet until Friday, thanks to my oral surgery last week. Not that Imind, because I get to eat the yummy flavors I linked to above (besides the chocolate, I have root beer and Red Hot Apple Cider Sorbet! Don't those just sound delicious?)

I am wearing ...

my string of pearls, a white camisole with lace trim, a lavender cardigan from J.Crew, and a wool boucle skirt (in a purple-ish weave) from Talbots. And brown tights. 

***

I am creating ...
My memoir. I gave it to my brother to read yesterday and he really likes it so far, so I am pushing onward.

***
On my iPod...
Voice lesson music

***

I am thinking...

that fall is my favorite season
***

Around the House

Cleaning the floors, but that's about it...

.***

I am reading ...

Just finished the new Isabel Dalhousie novel. Tremendous! 

***

I am hoping and praying ...
For friends who are undergoing chemo this week; for my body to keep cooperating. 

***

On Keeping Home ...

these candles look awesome. (keeping this link because they are awesome)

***
One of my favorite things ...

See ice cream link, above. :)
