FOR TODAY
Outside my window...It is dark now, but it has been a lovely day and week, with the temperature right on the average for Winter in our area, 21C.

I am thinking... about a lot of things, but particularly the census form, and that the details will be released in 99 years time. I haven't thought of looking for my grandparents there, and they would all be available by now, and my grandchildren would be able to see our details in the 2040s if they are interested. My children and grands haven't shown interest in our geneaology as yet, though I have given them copies of my research.
I am thankful for...travelling mercies and all the joyful times we have had.
From the kitchen... not much happening, we just had a snack tonight.
I am wearing... winter house clothes, cord jeans, windcheater and ugg boots.
I am creating... knee rugs to giveaway as a love gift, perhaps when someone has to go into Care, or has a terminal diagnosis. My sister had quite a few made up made when I was there last month (pictured). I have finished my first one, and have another 20 or so squares knitted. They are joined by crochet.
I am going... to enjoy seeing everyone again this week.
I am reading...for our new Bible Study this term 1 Samual.
I also enjoyed some gentle fiction by Sally Stewart from the library while I was away. I have read a few of hers now, including two set in Venice. Click here.
I am hoping... that everything works out for son and d-i-law after their move back to QLD.
I am hearing... the TV
Around the house...I haven't put everything away after returning home from our little trip, and I see the floors need a good vacuum.
One of my favorite things... Family
A few plans for the rest of the week.... Just the meetings that occur in the first week of the month, garden club tomorrow, Care and Share on Tuesday, Bible Study on Wednesday and Church ladies and their Bible Study on Thursday. We haven't been to tennis for a while, we haven't been getting up so early with the cooler mornings.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing...

Jan, thanks so much for your comment today! It made my morning ;) Hope you are well. I always forget that it is winter in your neck of the woods! With the 100 degree heat over here, I can't even fathom it...
Loved reading your "Daybook" thoughts.
I love the colourful rug. It sounds like you are getting back into the swing of things.
There are so many things I am thankful for. Most of all my health and getting out of bed each day.
I stopped by from SWD -- I enjoyed your post and especially the clip of How Great Thou Art! Thank you for sharing that! :)
