for today

for today...

outside my window... 57F/cloudy @ 5am (thunderstorms forecasted)

i am thinking... staying home & healthy, however, the coronavirus quarantine is growing weary;

a nation in crisis, reminding me of the Vietnam War era :(

i am thankful for... warm summer days, and cool summer nights

i am wearing... black jeans, cream T, cotton hoodie, Birkenstocks

i am going... to town for groceries & birdseed

i am currently reading... 

"Where The Crawdads Sing,"  by Deliah Owens

i am hoping... tomato & herb seedlings are available

on my mind... gas @ $2.23/gallon, milk @ $1.99/half gallon, butter @ $2.49/lb

pondering these words...

"It is the month of June,

the Month of leaves and roses,

When pleasant sights salute the eyes,

And pleasant scents the noses."

~ Nathaniel Parker Willis, The Month of June ~

from the kitchen... 

hint of lime tacos

white pizza with fresh spinach and beefsteak tomatoes

muddy buddies

around the house...  lilacs & purple phlox in vases

one of my favorite things...  the Pennsylvania Mountain Laurel

i'm creating... the June Challenges @ The Lilypad

a few plans for the week... laundry, gardening

from my lens:

a heron out for an afternoon stroll,

although I usually see you flying over the creek

you can join the simple woman's daybook where every day is a blank page,

and participate in creating a list of the simple things and everyday moments of our daily lives.
