The Weather:::
It's supposed to be amazing weather.  60s and 70s all week. 

Right now I am: 
Feeding Rylie her Peach Oatmeal Bananas and sipping orange juice.

Thinking:
I have soooooo much to do this week.  

On my reading pile:::
I haven't actually read a book for myself in weeks.  I have some I'd love to read, but no time this week to start them.  For now, it's going to have to be things like Rapunzel and LaLaLoopsy, and whatever other books the kids choose for me to read to them.

On my tv:::
I'm not sure... I need to find something though, since I'll be crafting a good chunk of the day.

On the menu for this week:::

Monday - Sweet and Sour pork chops
Tuesday - Bourbon chicken and rice
Wednesday - Takeout from somewhere.
Thursday - Thanksgiving 
Friday -  
Saturday -  
Sunday - 

On my to do list:::
Laundry
Grocery shopping 
crafting
What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
Finally finish my fireplace banner, and a nursing cover up

Homemaking Tips:::
Add a dash of salt to a vase of water for fresh flowers.  I don't know why, but for some reason, this helps the flowers live a little longer.

Looking around the house:::
I have piles upon piles of laundry to fold and put away.  My kitchen table is stacked with my current projects.  The big kids are playing in the play room with their blocks, while I feed Rylie and type this up.  We're listening to holiday music.  Yes, Christmas music.  It's my favorite time of year, and between the cooking, crafting, and cleaning I have to do, it helps me stay motivated.

From the camera:::


On my prayer list:::
Anyone who needs one.

Bible verse, Devotional:::
For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be. Matthew 6:21

We are listening to Christmas music as well. I agree it helps with the motivation.

Have a blessed Thanksgiving.

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

By
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...

Petty

By
This evening our sweet little Petty went to Kitty Heaven.  The cancer had spread to her brain, causing her to have odd behaviors.  The tumor in her mouth, or the side of her face, had pulled down her ear canal on that side and caused her eye to twitch, which the vet said caused constant vertigo.  The cancer had also spread to her intestines causing her to loose control of her bowels and bladder and she was bleeding internally.  While she didn't appear to be suffering, there is no way that she wasn't.  We sadly had to have her put down. Yes, I'm meowing at her in the video.  Sometimes she would answer when you would do that, but she would always come to you. She was such a cute little love bug.  I named her Perpetua, from the Bridget Jones movies, and later we shortened it to Petty, just because we are a family of nicknames.  I remember when we first got her and she was so tiny.  She looked like a lemur and she was all black with a cou...
