Simplicity Journal - Day 4

Outside my window it is another beautiful fall day and I can't wait to get my butt to the near by trail to enjoy this gorgeous day!

I am thinking that it is going to be a great day. I get to feed all of my loves, shopping, sewing, and cooking! My creativity tank is low to empty and needs refueling.

I am thankful for my bedroom couch, a delicous cup of coffee, a quiet house, pets snuggled in, and a cozy blanket.

I am wearing my favorite pjs and my hair has that bed tossled look.

I am learning that it is important to have a proper balance in your life between work, family, taking care of yourself, and play. When it gets off balance I become a grumpy person.

I am remembering when Milo and I first got married at the ripe old age of 20. We lived in this tiny apartment close to the size of our bedroom in our current home. We look back and called it our simple life. Sometimes I miss the simplicity of that life.

I am currently listening to the NBC Today show.

I am hoping that Madison has finally turned the corner. She is back to school today and slept better last night.

I am most excited starting Madison's Halloween costume.

Pondering these words..Don't hog your journey, it is not yours to hog. It is your journey that can change the lives of those you meet.

From the kitchen..I need to prep the pomegrates that I purchased yesterday and can't wait to enjoy them with a dollop of yogurt. Tonight for supper I am thinking warm chocolate pudding cake with ice cream, grilled burgers, and pork n beans. I love cooking for my family.

My house needs a 10 second tidy. I love being home. I joke with Mr. Milo that we should buy a farm in the country, live off the land and love, so I can be a farmers wife. May be someday.

Plans for tomorrow. A 7:30 AM meeting, 2 selling appointments, 1 consignment appointment, kickboxing, and parent night for confirmation students. Far from the country life.
