May Daybook

Outside my window: The clouds that looked like they might bring a rain shower have cleared. It is now bright and sunny. The trees have buds all over them, it will be nice when the green leaves make their appearance! :) 

In the kitchen......The dishwasher is going (I love that thing, don't know why I didn't use it sooner! :)) and everything is pretty clean. Just waiting on my wonderful husband to come in for lunch. 
 

I am thinking.....That I should try harder to take time to read good helpful books and spend less time on the Internet.  I am doing better at this, but I'm not all the way there yet.  Of course there are tons of good helpful things to read on the Internet as well, there has just has to be balance. 

I am wearing..... A long sleeve shirt, and jean skirt. It's cooled off a bit from yesterday and the shirt feels nice. 

I am going.....to have to make a trip to the store soon. It's almost seeding time and I'll need groceries. I'm also getting dangerously low on diapers.

I am wondering.....if I should try having a garden this year. I'm leaning toward a yes, but also have a few doubts that I might not be able to keep up with it.  If I have a hard time keeping up with cleaning and laundry, I'm probably crazy to add any thing more to my plate at this busy time of life. :) we will see.....

I am hoping......to build/make some kind of nest boxes for my four hens.   Right now they lay their eggs on the floor or get into the feeder and lay them; not the best. I am also hoping to get rid of the nine roosters, yes, you read that right, nine, haha. Sometimes hatching your own chicks has its drawbacks. I'm not brave enough to kill them, and so, they live happily in the hen house, eating good feed and crowing. 

I am thankful.....For God's mercy and love, thankful He doesn't leave His children alone, but corrects, chastens, and sanctifies. Praise His Name!

I am looking forward to....Trying to catch up where I'm behind, and read through the Bible this year.

Around the house.......There is plenty to do; as always. :) I need to deep clean the bedroom, and organize most of the closets in the house. 

One of my favorite things.....Hearing my children laugh, and seeing them play nicely together. 

A few plans for the rest of the week....Being Saturday I don't have many more plans for this week, except for possibly trying to get to the store this evening. 

A peek into my day......

Little miss baby sweetness (7 months) has learned to pull herself to a stand. Here she is playing with her big sister. :)  Sorry for the bad picture quality, I have been having trouble blogging off our iPad. I don't know why the pictures are sharp when I take them, but lose resolution after being posted.  Also if you noticed any posts disappear its also because of iPad blogging, sorry.
