Happy Homemaker Monday


The weather:::
Currently the temperature is 58 degrees with a high today of 62. It's supposed to be in the 50s-70s for the next 9 days or so. If it can hold out through the next weekend, most of my stress would go away.


On my reading pile:::

Finishing up Kings Cage. I'll probably finish it today or tomorrow. It's super good.

Movies or Shows I watched this weekend:::
I didn't really watch a whole lot this weekend as we were super busy but we did take the kids out to see Lego Batman.  It was super cute!  


On my TV:::

I have two shows that I watch every week as of late. This Is Us and Grey's Anatomy. Anything else is a bonus. I have Planet Earth 2 recording and I'm really looking forward to Africa's Great Civilizations on PBS that starts tonight. Shawn and I also need to finish up Westworld and I need to finish the Santa Clarita Diet.


On the menu for this week:::

I actually have no meal plan at the moment but am working on that tonight.

Friday 3rd

Thursday - Housework
Friday - housework
Saturday - house projects

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::

I'm still working on crochet virus blanket. I'm in desperate need of running to the Yarn Barn though and getting refills on my colors.

Looking forward to:::
Sleep tonight.  I haven't been sleeping much lately and it's killing me.

Looking around the house:::

The sun is shining in the kitchen window over the sink. All of our windows have shutters that you can open, but we've fully opened the one over the sink. I have a pile of laundry in the hallway to put in the washing machine and the dishwasher is running. The girls are playing, nicely at the moment, in their room.

From the camera:::

This was yesterday afternoon on our way to my niece's birthday party. The sun was reflecting so beautifully off of the clouds in the mirror that I couldn't stop staring.




What I'm wearing today:::
Right now, sweat pants and one of Shawn's old shirts, but I'm about to go get dressed for the day and run to the store. I'll probably wear some jeggings and a light sweater or button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up.

One of my simple pleasures:::
Spending time with my husband, whether it be watching tv, snuggling, or doing the dishes. I just genuinely love his company.

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...
