Happy Homemaker Monday

There is a new format for Happy Homemaker Monday that started this week but because I'd already typed up using the old one, I'll wait to change until next week.  Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday and a great week.

HHM


The weather outside is::::
It's quite gloomy at the moment but it is about 60 degrees.  I think the high today is 81 with some rain this morning and this evening.  I think we are supposed to get rain all week.  




On the breakfast plate this morning::::
At the moment, just a coffee with some Italian creme coffee creamer and a juice.  here in a minute or two I'm going to go make some eggs and maybe some bacon though.

As I look outside my window:::
It's just sort of gloomy and rainy and the wind is really blowing.

Right now I am::::
Sitting at the foot of my bed typing up this post avoiding the housework that beckons me.

As I look around the house::::
Scotland is bouncing so cute and sweetly on my bed and laughing like a little loon.  Ben's at school already.  Sydney and Rylie are playing with dolls in their bedroom.  Shawn is on a call in the office directly below us.  I can hear his voice through the floor.  When he's on calls I keep the kids either out of the house or upstairs so the kids can't be heard on the phone.  The house is in need of some picking up.  There is a pile of dirty laundry at the bottom of the stairs and a few piles of folded clean laundry on the living room ottoman in need of being put away.

Grocery shopping
Dishes
Laundry
Rinse Diapers to wash

(I got so far behind on all of my TV shows that my DVR literally filled up and has been deleting things as well.  Thank goodness I have Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Videos to help me with my missed shows, but I find that I get sidetracked instead and find a whole new series that I binge watch and then start the process over again.  HAHAHA!)

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...

Happy Homemaker Monday

   As I look outside my window::: So far today, it is cold and gloomy! Right now I am:::  Sitting on the couch under my crocheted afghan. Thinking and pondering::: On Thanksgiving!  What to fix.  I think I'm getting carried away, but I love it.  On my bedside table::: I haven't been doing much reading lately and I should. Duck Commander Family by Willie and Korie Robertson Frozen by Sarah Nathan and Sela Roman On my tv tonight::: American Horror Story Some Doctor Who specials Playing on the radio::: I don't have anything playing right now, but I'm obsessed with James Blunt's new song, Bonfire Heart. The video is amazing too.  I love the story behind the video.  The people in it are NOT actors.  The wedding scene towards the end, he actually crashed a wedding and captured the bride and grooms first dance.  Amazing.  And, not only is his voice and music wonderful, he's a total hottie. On the menu for ...

Blogmas 2014 - Day 13 How Are You Counting Down To Christmas

Ok, honestly....  I'm not.  I have this gorgeous advent calendar that is 3 building with little numbered doors all over them.  I haven't gotten it out for lack of space and really small children.  Maybe next year.  Also, Ben has been all over the lego ones and stuff so I figure, I'll pick up some next year or as I see them now this year, so each kid can have their own next year.  I don't know maybe I'll just make them if I'm feeling crafty and find the time.  It actually hit us all at once on Saturday that Christmas was less than 2 weeks away.
