Happy Homemaker Monday

The weather in my neck of the woods:
Cold and Rainy

Things that make me happy: 
Family time!

Book I'm reading:
Hoda: How I survived war zones, bad hair, cancer and Kathie Lee. by Hoda Kotb  I love it.  You'll be just sitting down to read and next thing you know, you've read 50 pages.  Don't forget the tissue for this read.  She's an amazing woman and shares a lot of ups and downs, personal and professional.

What's on my TV today: 
Tonight is Bethenny Ever After and Secret Life of the American Teenager.  Today, I need to watch this weekend's Mob Wives.


On the menu for dinner:
Taco Soup and corn bread

On my To Do List:
Vacuuming
Sweeping
Dusting
Glass

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
Nothing at the moment.


In the craft basket:
I haven't gotten anything started yet so probably about the same as last week. 


Looking forward to this week:
Maybe some time to relax.  I believe Mom's wedding reception is on Saturday so I'm looking forward to a chance on catching up with some old family and friends.


Tips and Tricks:
I unfortunately have nothing today.


My favorite blog post this week: 
I haven't had the chance to do much blog reading since my lap top died.  Now I have to sneak away when I can into the office and use the desk top in there.


No words needed (favorite photo or picture, yours or others you want to share):



Hahah! This is my husband and I when we were about 16.



Lesson learned the past few days:
Back up your hard drive!  I'm so scared that all of my photos are gone.  They were all on my laptop and now, I'm in limbo...

On my mind:
I have so much on my mind today.  Nothing really serious, just the normal.  My book I'm reading, cooking dinner, the housework I have to do, etc, but it's got my stomach in knots.

The weather..... It appears that Spring has sprung...  Some nice spring storms and mostly warmer weather. Right now I am.... Sitting outside at the table on the front porch while the kids run and play or stop to eat their snacks.    Thinking.... Ugh Monday... Mondays always seem to be the worst days for me. On my reading pile.... Starting a new one that I picked up last week at one of my favorite stores, Brits.  Jane Austen:  Her Life And Letters by William Austen-Leigh and  Richard Arthur Austen-Leigh On my TV..... Everything from my DVR since we are switching cable providers and will be losing our current DVRs on Wednesday. Also, Call The Midwife, The Bible and Season 3 of Downton Abbey Blog hopping (newly discovered blog).... I don't currently have anything but I hope to soon. On the menu for this week.... I don't really have a menu plan at the moment.  Shawn started a diet full of prepackaged meals and it's thrown my current plan ...
