Time for another entry in The Simple Woman's Daybook.
♥ I am thinking... about Halloween and Christmas. A lot.
♥ I am thankful for... the crisp Autumn air that's been creeping in our windows at night. It's delicious.
♥ From the kitchen... comes the wrath of the fruit flies. They have taken over, but we haven't given up. One by one they fall victim to our little traps (of wine & soap) and some have been sucked up out of midair me and my handheld Dyson.
♥ I am wearing... jeans and a black tank. Just like every other day.
♥ I am creating... to-do lists and book lists. Lists of all kinds.
♥ I am going... out for a sushi date with the boy (if he ever manages to get changed in time).
♥ I am reading... lots of home birth stories on blogs. I love hearing from mamas after they've welcomed their little ones.
♥ I am hoping... that Gretchen will continue to sleep through the night as she has for the last two nights. I dare not think about it too much.
♥ I am hearing... little birds and the sounds of laundry being pulled in from a neighbour's line. Squeak, squeak.
♥ Around the house... we've been doing lots of tidying. Especially this morning. Many bags of clothing have been packed up and soon they'll be off to new homes. Our hall closet is now 98% tidy.
♥ One of my favorite things... to do when I need to relax is to curl up on the couch with some tea and an old episode of (you guessed it) Gilmore Girls. There's something very comforting about knowing what is going to happen.
♥ A few plans for the rest of the week... lots of photo editing and reading.
♥ A photo for thought...
