Since the simple woman's daybook is temporarily taking a break and there's nowhere to link I'll continue just cause I think it's fun....and once again reiterate that it's an easy filler until I can sit and type something with more than one hand.
Ouside my window.....windows open, barking dogs, laughing trampoline jumping kids and a world bathed in sunlight
________
I am thinking....that people who alter signed, legal contracts are dishonest, should be shot in the butt with a .22 and made aware that it is a federal offense punishable by law.
________
I am thankful for.....clean, big towels when I get out of the shower. This should never be taken for granted by anyone...as drying off with hand towels is so entirely unpleasant. One of life's smallest yet greatest, most enjoyable gifts. Clean big bath towels.
________
I am wearing.....running shorts and a t-shirt. And yes....I have changed clothes since the last time I documented what I was wearing on this thing. And it feels good. Scale numbers are headed south and inches are falling away.
________
I am hearing....Felt Good on my Lips by Tim McGraw, a 4 year old's incessant talking, a screamy 2 year old, the soft crinkle of two tiny boys playing happily with their crinkly elephants, and a ton of laughing, trampoline jumping kids with a ton of barking dogs at their heels...though we already clarified that point.
________
I am remembering......that I have not done much wash in the last day and a half and the utility room currently looks like an F-5 went through it. It's a very scary place right now and I have no desire to enter it.....but I should.
________
I am reading......One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp....yes, still.
________
I am hoping.....that my layered hair will all grow back in quickly cause I just really have discovered I dislike layers in every way. Stringy, tangled witch hair...and we don't do witches around here...but somehow my hair seems to qualify at the present moment.
________
On my mind.....that it's taken me 26 hours to write this one post.
________
Noticing that.......that the world at large should really be aware that electric garage doors without electricity do not lower anything like a normal garage door...but, in fact, have the ability to shoot themselves down at rocket force speeds somewhere around 100 miles an hour with about 30,000 lbs of pressure. And when one is unaware of this little bit of information and one's lower left leg and foot is under said door the foot will not fit properly into shoes for weeks...and, in fact, hurts to run or P90X at all...and both leg and foot will remain largely swollen and strange, foreboding, onminous colors for weeks.
_________
Pondering these words....Garrett:
"That guy's poop stinks cause he's a bad guy."
"Oh really?? And your poop doesn't stink cause you're a good guy???"
"Well....my poop stinks but not as bad as that guys cause his REALLY stinks....cause he's a bad guy. And all bad guys have super stinky poop."
Who knew?
________
From the kitchen.....juiced celery, broccoli, carrots, tomato, cucumber and apple
________
Around the house.....the kids that are back home from fishing with all the turtles they caught still in hand
_________
One of my favorite things....beautiful spring night, stars by the millions, windows rolled down with heater turned on high
________
From my picture journal....
The extra spare freezer and life with many boys
2 teeth at a mere 16 weeks!
The Count to a thousand
#26 - yellowy lights of homesteads dotting rural highway
27# - huge shiny fire trucks sitting in bay
#28 - weight of baby sleeping soundly on my chest
#29 - dark night breeze.....soft on skin like silk
#30 - big red newly washed truck alone to self in the night...hair unleashed, windows down and music
#31 - smell of baby all shampooed and washed and lotioned
#32 - little boys holding turtles...gleeful, laughing with eyes bright
#33 - scale numbers that continue their downward fall, inches falling away...feeling of unsurpassed inner strength, growing physical strength and the power of knowing I can accomplish anything in life
