Happy Homemaker Monday

The weather in my neck of the woods:
Stormy and scary, but at least it's warm now.

Things that make me happy: 
My husband taking a super long weekend starting Thursday.

Book I'm reading:

Mommywood by Tori Spelling.

What's on my TV today: 
Real Housewives of New Jersey tonight and Glee reruns during the day.


On the menu for dinner:
Egg and bacon breakfast burritos with fruit.

On my To Do List:
Dusting
Glass

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
There are so many.  I'll have to find time to post them all.


In the craft basket:
I've been so busy that any crafts I've had, have been sitting there, waiting to be done.

Looking forward to this week:
Family time!  Spending time with my husband.


Tips and Tricks:


I've got nothing right off the top of my head.


My favorite blog post this week: 
I have sadly gotten way behind on my blog reading and am hoping to catch up in the next day or two.

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







Lesson learned the past few days: 
 
Well, today our power went out for a few hours and I think the biggest thing was that it was wonderful.  No TV or having to do laundry or vacuuming like chores that require power.  The kids and I just read and played together and it was fantastic.  I mean we do a lot with each other, but the tv is always on in the background and today I realized how much attention they really pay to me or each other when it wasn't on.  We'll be doing this everyday.

 
On my mind:
Praying for the people in Joplin, Mo, who's town was destroyed by a terrible tornado.

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...
