A Woman’s Daybook
For Thursday, June 4, 2009
Outside my window...We have been in quite the heat wave – it’s about 90 today, and has been hot and sunny for over the week. Allegedly it will cool down and rain is moving in. I also have quite the sunburn to show for my time in the sun. All is well now, as I have a tube of new sunscreen
I am thinking...that I need to be more consistent about blogging. I love to read everyone’s posts, and the discussion that ensues when I blog, so why don’t I do it more?
I am thankful for...family visiting next week, and for the C-man graduating High School on Thursday.
From the learning rooms…See above – graduation next week. Pretty much no learning going on near as I can tell for either of the boys. Did I mention it is really sunny?
From the kitchen...Our first CSA box of the year arrived yesterday; I’m planning on a salad with feta, nuts and berries and bread
I am wearing... a black linen skirt and a black, tan and white striped polo shirt. And, of course, my black Clarks sandals (actually, that's incorrect - I should say, with my black Clarks kicked off and near my chair)
I am creating...I was able to scrap over the weekend and have a few pages to finish up. I need to make some cards tonight; I’ve been working on getting them planned out in my head. I mailed the ATC swap yesterday, so once they start arriving, I’ll post the projects.
I am going...to Pentecost Vigil at our parish’s Chapel in the Foothills. Sunday, our parish’s Pentecost will not be held there, but the afterwards potluck should be.
I am reading...An utterly forgettable book about Jane Seymour, Plain Jane. It’s pleasant, but nothing stands out about it.
I am hoping...to blog more.
I am hearing...Mariners games on the radio as our cable needs to be upgraded and the first appointment we could get was late next week. (This is not happening right now, it’s an off day)
Around the house...Our cat needs hypoallergenic food. Dh and I have been medicating her twice a day, which is a two person job. Thankfully, she is doing very well on the meds and new diet, and is healing up nicely.
One of my favorite things...that moment when you get into a warm car – it gets too hot almost immediately lately, but there’s something about sitting in the sun that feels good (especially after our winter)
A few plans for the rest of the week – I always answer this on the “I am going…” spot, so see above.

Congrats to the C-man! Way to go!
Looking forward to receiving the ATC's.
Nice to hear about the cat feeling better!
I would love it if you blogged more! :-)
I am always green with envy every spring when people start talking about their CSA boxes...we still don't have anything like that close enough to be feasible.
Lots of lovely things! I love your blog posts! :)
Hope your cat continues to heal! Poor kitty!
Have a great evening!
ooo, enjoy your company and veggies and new pages!
Congrats to the C-man. I think we have all your rain over here. It's been chilly and rainy. Enjoy the Vigil at your little chapel.
I hope you have a great time with your family and friends during the parties surrounding the graduate! Enjoy the produce from your CSA share...
And have a blessed Pentecost! Are you going to wear green?
I would love it if you blogged more too!
Poor kitty! Medicating kitties is never fun - for human, or for feline.
Congratulations!
Re the sun, it has arrived today in glorious fashion after a very cold and wet start to winter for us. And it is wonderful to stand outside soaking it up! We Sydney-siders really do not know what a real winter is. :)
And congratulations to the C-man! Wonderful news.
And yes: blog more please. :) :)
Ah, so now you're the Mother of a high school graduate! Let the fun begin! Congrats to "the C-man," and best wishes for the future.
BTW, I love to hear what you are wearing on these posts. You always have the nicest fashion sense.
And Congratulations to you for the nomination at the Eastern Christian New Media Awards!
Miss Tilney and Miss Darcy send their best wishes to your cat.
"Well done" to C-man and to his parents!
I've been thinking about creating a small CSA for select known people . . . more of a 'friends and family' type of CSA.
I'm glad to hear you are involved and supporting this way of encouraging locally grown produce and supporting small farming!
I trust you had a blessed Pentecost. Look forward to your further blogging.

Congratulations to your guy for graduation. May God bless him always.
Oh, thank you everyone for the votes of "blog more". I'm planning on working on it.
Janelle, that's a bummer about there note being a CSA near you. Is there a Farmer's Market?
Marfa - I'd never heard the "wear green" before (although I knew that the Priest's vestments would be green) and my summer wardrobe is sadly lacking in green (good thing St. Parick's Day is in the winter). But, looking around on Sunday morning, many people had heard it before and were wearing green. God willing, next year.
Cesarea - so true.
Suzanna - thank you, blush. You made my day.
Margi - I keep forgetting to pass Miss Darcy and Miss Tilney's wishes to Miss Bridget. I'll need to.
Hilarius - that's a fantastic idea, and if we lived closer, I'd definitely want to be in on it.
And, thank you for all the wishes to the C-man on his gradution.
