Homemaking Tips:::
I don't have any, other than making homemade dishwasher soap because I just made another batch this weekend.

Looking around the house:::
Ben is resting and watching tv in his room.  The girls are laying around in the living room.  I'm just being lazy.  The house smells amazing thanks to my fall candles.

From the camera:::




On my prayer list:::
My brother in law and his girlfriend as they finishing moving into their apartment.

What are you making for your fireplace?

Yea, I'm having a hard time staying on track for the Widow Of Larkspur Inn myself. I've been so busy that when I do have time to read and I start it, I get not really bored, but just to the point I think about other things I could be doing. Last night, a friend loaned me the Grimms complete book of fairy tales. I started it last night. Talk about morbid, but for some reason, I love it.

I don't know how to explain what I'm making for the fireplace. It's a bunch of different crocheted pieces connected together in fall colors. I'll be sure to take a picture when I'm done.

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.

Everything from my DVR since we are switching cable providers and will be losing our current DVRs on Wednesday.
