~ TODAY ~ The Simple Woman's Daybook with Jan

Outside my window...... 7am on Tuesday morning, just after the shortest day of the year.... apricot coloured cotton-candy clouds with blue sky background... the sun isn't up yet.  The thermometer says 10C, and I'm still in bed in our RV.
I am thinking....  I am so pleased that we decided to do this trip a week earlier that we were planning.... A lot more time to see family.  I am also thinking of my Blogspot friends, though, and missing seeing their posts and comments.
I am thankful for ..... travelling mercies and the great time we are having.... I haven't been cold yet.
From the kitchen..... We mostly have the same meals as at home when we are travelling, though we do have more treats.
I am wearing..... nightwear
I am creating..... memories
I am going.... out and about again today, when Barry and Tilda awake
I am reading.... library books.  We also play Rummikin in the evenings, when Barry isn't playing his guitar, or watching a DVD on his laptop.
I am hoping.....  it will be mild when we go up the mountains tomorrow.
I am hearing.... the news on ABC radio.... more Australians killed in Afghanistan, Australians through the first round at Wimbledon.
Around the RV..... didn't wash up last night, will do it soon. 
One of my favourite things.... I love listening to the radio when we are away. 
A few plans for the rest of the week...... this evening we will attend a country music club with the new friends we  met on sunday, then on to Barry's brother and to my daughter's on Thursday.
Here is a picture for thought I am sharing......  waiting for Barry's son at Windsor.
  I give thanks unto thee, O Lord,
and sing praises unto thy name.
Psalms 18:49
