Simple Woman's Daybook – May 11, 2010

FOR TODAY May 11, 2010

Outside my window…it is a cloudy, rainy, windy day

I am thinking…that I have learned a lot in researching information for my posts that have to do with Mental Health Awareness.

I am thankful for…family support and friend support and even strangers who have been supportive.

From the kitchen…there is the smell of coffee.

I am wearing…my pajamas as usual.  I slept later than I usually do this morning.

I am creating…or at least trying to create more topic ideas for Mental Health Awareness month.
I am going…to try and get extra work done today.  I always say that and it never really happens.  I fall asleep or other things take up my time.

I am reading…information on Mental Health Awareness and a book my daughter checked out at the library.

I am hoping…that today is a good day.  I am very sleepy though.

I am hearing…the wind blowing really hard.

Around the house…it is very quiet, except for the sound of the wind.

One of my favorite things…is cooking.  I really enjoy cooking.

A few plans for the rest of the week: I plan on keeping up with a new mental health topic a day.  It is important to me.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing…

The Simple Woman's Day Book- February 1st, 2010

FOR TODAY… February 1st,2010

Outside my window…a chilly morning

I am thinking…about my life

I am thankful for… my family

I am wearing…pjs and my leopard print snuggie

I am remembering…forgotten memories

I am going… to be home most of the day, I might run out for a little bit

I am currently reading…blogs mostly

I am hoping… to have a good day today

On my mind… just lots of things, I think mostly revolving around things that I lost over the last few years due to depression

Noticing that…my mind is in a cloudy place today

Pondering these words…Having depression or problems with anxiety is not a sin. Living with it alone without letting others be a part of our life to love us is a sin.
From the kitchen… new kitchen faucet

Around the house… nothing much right now,just hanging out in my snuggie
One of my favorite things~ learning about myself
