Daybook 4

Outside my window- Overcast skies, and lots of wind.

I am thinking about- Stories I want to write... Someday.

From the kitchen- Must be about time to start supper.

I am creating- A bunch of little yellow fabric flowers for my younger sister to wear in her hair at the wedding.

I am reading- 'The Trumpeter of Krakow' by Eric P. Kelly

I am hearing- Pandora Radio, the hum of the sewing machine from the sewing room, and the 'bling' of my facebook chat.

I am hoping- To convince my youngest sister to model for me, so I can do another hairstyle tutorial.

I am planning- To go practice my harp once I finish this post.

I am wearing- A red knit shirt, wide black belt, and a aqua/brown skirt with embroidery on it. 

My hair is- In a knot.

Around the house- Quietness...

 I am wishing- Hm... I'd like to be a better writer. And while I'm wishing, I'll take a Pegasus, too. ;)

Daybook 3

Outside my window- Another gray, cold, nasty day.

I am thinking about- 'Larkrise to Candleford'. My older sister and I have watched a few episodes, and so far we are enjoying it very much.

From the kitchen- Dishes to wash, most likely. I haven't looked, I'm putting it off for as long as possible. :)

I am creating- A blog post?

I am reading- Yesterday I finished reading 'House of Many Ways' by Diana Wynne Jones. It wasn't as good as the two books that come before it, but it was still enjoyable.

I am hearing- My littlest sister is playing 'Joy to the World' on my old harp.

I am hoping- Hmm, what am I hoping? Ok, I'm hoping I can remember the dream I had last night. It was a really good dream...but I don't remember what it was about now!

I am planning- To sort through my clothes today. My dresser drawers are getting really jumbled.

I am wearing- Blue jeans, a pink shirt with geometric-ish shapes on it, and my new silver hoop earrings.

My hair is- In a twist-wrapped-ponytail. With a headband for added prettiness. :)

Around the house- My brother is pulling the taps off the maple trees today. Yay! No more hauling sap!

 I am wishing- That the weather would hurry up and get warm! I'm really for summer.

Daybook 2

Outside my window- It's snowing...again. :/ Huge wet flakes.

I am thinking about- How I want to fix my littlest sister's hair for the wedding. She's the flower girl.

From the kitchen- Chicken, thawing for supper.

I am creating- Almost finished with my bridesmaids dress, just some hand sewing left. Super happy with it. :)

I am reading- Haven't really done any reading since last week...

I am hearing- Barlow Girl, via Grooveshark .

I am hoping- That I can decide on a necklace for the wedding, soon. My sister-in-law-to-be is buying all of her bridesmaids the necklace of our choice. :D

I am planning- To get my graduation open house invitations sent out this week.                          

I am wearing- A gray wool skirt, blue top with white flowers on it, hoop earrings and my paua shell ring.

My hair is- Tried something new today. Took the front half of my hair and divided it into about seven sections and twisted them all back separately. Pulled them all together in a ponytail, then into a bun.

Around the house- Laundry to fold, and mud. My brothers track in a lot as they come inside.

 I am wishing- That season 6 of Doctor Who was out. Can. Not. Wait. :D

edit: It stopped snowing, and the sun is out now! Change in supper plans- hot dog roast with my brother and his wife and kids. :)

Daybook 1

I've seen several blogs that do a daybook, and I've always thought it looked like fun. So here's my version. :)

Outside my window- Patches of blue in the sky, but mostly cloudy, and a bit too chilly to have the window open. Most of the snow is gone, though. I can only see one pile from here.

I am thinking about- Starting my school for the day.

From the kitchen- Breakfast dishes that need washing. I think I'll conserve soap and hot water, and wait till after lunch. ;)

I am creating- I need to sew my bridesmaid dress for my brother's wedding.

I am reading- "Debbie of the Green Gate" It's a re-read, but I read it long enough ago that I don't really remember what happens...

I am hearing- This song. So pretty.

I am hoping- To get the loads of laundry I have to do today done as soon as possible. Usually I do laundry on Tuesday, but I was gone all morning/afternoon yesterday.

I am planning- To hem the sun dress I made on Monday.

I am wearing- A black skirt and my new aqua/black plaid top. I love it. :)

My hair is- VERY uncooperative today- I wanted to put it up, but it wouldn't go up... It's in a braid.

Around the house- Pretty quiet. My younger siblings are doing school.

 I am wishing- That my bridesmaid dress was already done, and exactly how I want it.
