The Simple Woman's Daybook



For today....Thursday, December 8, 2011


Outside my window....today is a day filled with sunshine, though it's cold. The current temperature is 45 degrees.


I am thinking....I've been sitting here with a heating pad on my shoulder. I pulled a muscle in my right shoulder a couple of days ago. I still don't know how I did it. I'm sure it will feel better in a couple of days, but it sure limits my ability to get things done.


I am thankful....to have a heating pad and Motrin to help me feel better.  :)


In the kitchen....I'm going to fix burritos for dinner tonight for William and Michelle. I think I will fix myself a green salad.


I am wearing.....a long black skirt, light blue long sleeve top and black tights.


I am going....I am taking Mom to the lab tomorrow morning, so I'm hoping my shoulder will be feeling better, so it won't hurt when I drive.


I am reading....reading another one of my 'Murder, She Wrote' mysteries. I'm enjoying them a lot.


I am hearing....William and I are watching some programs I've recorded on tv.


Around the house....most of our Christmas decorations are now up. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here! :)


One of my favorite things....enjoying the lights on the Christmas tree.


A few plans for the rest of the week....taking Mom to the lab on Friday.  We are going to my brother's house on Sunday for a Christmas get together. I'm going to bake some chocolate chip cookies for a cookie exchange.


From my picture journal.........this year's Christmas tree.

  4. When I read about your shoulder pain, I couldn't help but remember when I strained my shoulder in mid-July earlier this year. It turned-out that I had tendinitis, and was in pain severe pain until the end of August! I pray that you don't have tendinitis, and that's it's just a simple muscle strain.

    Your Christmas tree looks very pretty. It looks like you had a fun time decorating it.

    I also had burritos tonight for dinner. :)

    Anyway, take care, and try to have a pleasant rest of the week.


    P.S. Your new header is cute. :)
