The Simple Woman's Daybook for February 2

 

For Today

 

Outside my window it's dark and cold.
I am thinking of when life was better than this. And I tell myself, "snap out of it". Name that movie. (Think Cher).
I am thankful for fast internet, among many other things.
From the kitchen there are dishes yet to do.
I am wearing my gray Polartech yoga pants, a long sleeve pajama top, my sheep slippers and have a blanket wrapped around me, yet I am still cold.
I am creating textured photographs with the process I learned earlier this week.
I am going to donate one of them to our school's Auction this spring.
I am reading other people's blogs tonight.
I am hoping that our lives improve soon.
I am hearing the Super Bowl in the background. I have never liked the hype that's involved with this game.
Around the house it is quiet and the living room is strewn with Geoge's puppy toys.
One of my favorite things is hearing my husband tell me how much he loves me. I haven't heard that lately, though.
A few plans for the rest of the week include sending in my Verizon phone rebate, refilling my husband's prescriptions and dealing with our new health insurance company on several claims they say they will not pay. I'll get it straightened out.
Here is picture thought I am sharing:

This is a macro shot I'd taken of a seashell last year. I added a texture layer to it. I found an entire CD full of macro shots that I'd forgotten about. They're like The Lost Files. Some of them are pretty nice, so it was worth it.

There's another Giveaway and it's over at Miriam Lovell Photography. She's  a wonderful photographer who's offering an assortment of her Valentine's Day cards. Check it out!

Until tomorrow, my wonderful friends . . .
