The Simple Woman's Daybook - October 18



Outside my window the early morning fog is just lifting. I can see patches of pink sky.

I am thinking about taking a shower.

I am thankful that my husband is at work. This is his second day at his new job!

From the kitchen I can smell coffee just brewed. I need to finish my cup.
I am wearing pajamas and robe. I wore brightly striped, fuzzy socks to bed last night and they are still on.
I am creating a beautiful cross stitch and will be working on that this morning.

I am going to stay home this morning because the lady is coming to tune my piano. Finally!

I am reading Lo Michael by Grace Livingston Hill. She wrote over 100 Christian romance books from 1900 to 1946. I love to pick them up periodically and reread her lovely stories.
I am hoping to get some rest now that the real estate agent, landlord, and house inspectors have done their thing. After the piano tuner leaves I will have the house (practically) to myself.

I am hearing the sound of furnace. I can't believe how much the temperature has dropped.
Around the house I am happy to say it is clean.

One of my favorite things is to play the piano. We found a beautiful and good sounding one on Craigslist for 300 dollars. Wow, God is good!
A few plans for the rest of the week: I will be playing my newly tuned piano, cross stitching, taking the dogs out in this crisp fall weather, and enjoying my last week with my hubby. He has a meeting this morning than comes home for the rest of the week to do some more online classes, this time for his company. So much training! He starts working in earnest next week.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing:
