Daybook for Monday 2nd February

Peggy over at the Simple Woman's Daybook hosts these daybooks, run on over for a look :)

FOR TODAY

Outside my window... it's warm and sunny. They forecast snow for tomorrow and warm weather for the weekend- we're into the spring up and down pattern already!

I am thinking... that I hope DD likes her birthday presents and cake- she turns 5 tomorrow. Where has the time gone?

I am thankful for... living where we do. A trip to Northern Virginia at the weekend, gave me a lot of appreciation for our decidedly less hectic pace- and warmer climate :)

From the learning rooms... thinking about doing geography on fun Mondays- and science experiments :) If it is fun, it is allowed on Monday.

From the kitchen... salmon. Hope this new recipe is a good one! I am also planning on starting the Mary-Janes Farm sourdough bread.

I am wearing... denim skirt, white blouse with black stripes. Bare legs for now- hair is up in my crocodile clip.

I am creating... a book- for DD. You can see the entries below :)

I am going... outside- it's a nice day, we need the fresh air :)

I am reading... some magazines (one art, three crafts and two house ones) plus some art books. I am making headway in my pile...

I am hoping... to post up on thing-a-day!

I am hearing... Rebel playing and birds singing.

Around the house... Cleaning. Finish M'Lady's book... at least the printing part ;)

One of my favorite things... is garden planning- with spring on the way I need to order seeds!.

A few plans for the rest of the week: celebrate M'Lady's 5th birthday!!

Here is picture thought I am sharing...

You can see more of the ice-storm pictures at my garden blog :)
