Brisbane Woman's Daybook

For today...Monday, September 27

Outside my window...I'm sitting in McDonald's to access the internet, so cars are driving through and children are playing on the playground

I am thinking...about the guys walking 2000 kilometers to promote awareness of Bible translation

I am thankful for...the church we attended yesterday, all in English, with a great sermon and worship

I am wearing...comfy, cotton clothes and tennis shoes to make my trek around the neighborhood

In the learning room...kids doing school whenever we are on public transportation for a long time or in a doctor's waiting room; and visiting museums, Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary and the ballet later this week

I am going...to walk to the grocery store in just a few minutes while Aaron shops for a water pump for our village house

I am currently reading...loads of Agatha Christie left in our flat (Mrs. McGinty's Dead, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd...)

From the kitchen...LOVING cooking old familiar recipes and finding new ones with ingredients that we can't find in the Solomons

Around the house...lots of hot drinks (like Cadbury's Mint Drinking Chocolate) as we enjoy the cooler weather

One of my favorite things...the laughter of my children, and I'm hearing it frequently these days!

From my camera...Sarah discovered the "whilrly-bird" seed pods that I loved as a child
