A Young Maiden's Daybook - Week 2



Today…
January 19th, 2009

Outside my window…
cloudy, gray skies

I am thinking…
that I'd better hurry up and post this so I can go make some quiche for dinner and pop it in the fridge, so that I can do an extra-long Kathy Smith aerobic video with Mom and still have dinner on the table at 5:45 (the time Dad comes home for his lunch break)!

I am thankful for…
completed school work. Even though I started school late today, I got it all done!

I am wearing…
a pink turtle neck sweater and my favorite jean skirt

I am reading…
Leviticus, Psalms and I just finished Frozen Summer by Mary Jane Auch.

I am creating…
still, an embroidered pillowcase for my hope chest.

One of my favorite things…
playing Yahtzee.

For education this week...
the usual.

A keeper at home skill I am using/learning…
cleaning. The homeschool room was a big mess today from not keeping it picked up over the weekend!

A spiritual lesson I’m learning…
submission.

A godly character trait I plan to work on...
meekness.

Scripture I am memorizing…
John 15: 11-12

I am praying for…
a good friend who has just found out she is pregnant to have a problem-less pregnancy and birth.

For the rest of the week…
letter writing, a playdate on Wednesday, hopefully a sewing class on Wednesday (haven't heard from the craft store if it is going to happen or not).

A picture I’d like to share… the pillowcase I'm working on:





Have a blessed week!

This is a brilliant idea! :) I love the way you directed it towards being a homekeeper. :)

Is it a meme for everyone to do?

Miss Jocelyn - Oh, so sorry! I just realized I didn't link to Miss Ally's blog. She was the one who created the meme! I've linked her now at the bottom of my post. :)

Melina - Thank you for your encouragement!
