For today...May 5, 2010
Outside my window...the sun is beginning to go down, grey clouds are drifting in maybe we will get some rain tonight.
I am thinking...it has been too long since my last Daybook post and how nice it is to sit and think for a while about the simple things.
From the kitchen...I can smell dinner cooking, chicken & sweet potato coconut curry except I use pad thai paste rather than curry...trust me it is delicious.
I am wearing....tracksuit and sneakers, anything to keep me warm.
I am remembering...the reason why I should by chocolate each week.
I have just started reading...The Lovely Bones.
I am hoping...the weather will be fine this Sunday for Mother's Day.
Around the house....it's almost bed time for Isabelle so it is wind down time here, toys are packed away for another day and it's almost time for the reading chair.
I am going....to have a glass of red wine tonight with dinner.
One of my favorite things....is going to bookstores, although I rarely have time to read I have trouble going into one without leaving with something.
A few plans for the rest of the week...Sunday - Mother's Day I plan to attend my 1st Mothers Day Classic (4km walk) it is one of Australia's largest charity events and raises money for breast cancer research. These are my reasons why.
From my picture journal...I love everything about this picture.
Till then,
Natalie x














I wonder if they're stitching fingers in the making ??

Good luck for the Mothers Day Classic, Nat, I too along with my buddy Helen are off for our first Mothers Day Classic as well and in a moment of crazyness??!! we decided to do the 7.2 Km walk instead of the shorter walk, but the weather here in Adelaide on Sunday is supposed to be 23 cloudy but fine so Im sure we will survive??!! Enjoy your day.
Cheers Sue

Natalie, I really enjoy your day book entries. It is nice to think about the small things that make our days lovely. I too am wearing something to keep me warm as it is quite cold here also. I love books too. I have heard that Lovely Bones is really good. I decided to read the top 100 books that I found on the internet. It has been fun reading the classics! I have even been collecting them. Keep up the good work!
