Happy Homemaker Monday

As I look outside my window:::
It's sunny and the snow is all melting leaving the world an ugly brown.  This week it's supposed to be beautiful although I fear it will be 10 degrees again soon.
  
Right now I am::: 
Sitting on the ottoman in my living room waiting for our couches and lunch to arrive. 
 
Thinking and pondering:::
Working on the house to get it ready for the baby.  There is so much to do and no time.
  
On my bedside table:::
Have not touched my book in a week or two.  I will be hopefully doing some reading this afternoon or evening.  Bridget Jones The Edge of Reason by Helen Fielding
 
On my tv tonight:::
The Following

Listening to:::
Sydney's iPad and Rylie's snoring.

I have yet to come up with my menu for the week.  That's one of my things to do today.

So much craziness
My niece's birthday party this weekend
What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
My crochet mood blanket


My simple pleasure:::
Organizing my calendars.  I don't know why, but I love it.  I have a day planner, a monthly pocket planner, a regular calendar on the wall, and a dry erase calendar and I try to keep all of them updated.  I love them.

Lesson learned the past week:::  
I'm still working on patience.  It will probably be a life long lesson though.

Looking around the house:::
The new couches have arrived and I'm in love.  The kitchen table is cluttered with trash and recycling from Rylie's birthday party this weekend to be put away.  Sydney and Rylie are cuddled up together watching a show on Sydney's iPad.

From the camera:::


Prayer List:::
I have a few friends I'm praying for, and anyone else who could use it.

Bible verse, Devotional:::
Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His presence continually! ~ 1 Chronicles 16:11

Yea for new furniture! You are so lucky! My furniture is all pretty old - but still servicable. Enjoy all that new stuff and your sweet family. Have a great week.

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...
