Happy Homemaker Monday

The Weather:::
I think the high today is 91. Tomorrow it's going to be 85 which will be a nice change from the 100s we had last week while we were moving.

On my reading pile:::
I need to finish Hollow City but I had to put it on hold for the move.  I'm hoping to be back at it soon.

On my tv:::
I have to re-setup my DVR. We hadn't had TV since a week before the move. Thankfully we were able to watch Game of Thrones and still had Netflix.

On the menu for this week:::
I desperately need to plan a menu since I haven't cooked anything for the last week. 

Monday -  Going out for my sister-in-law's birthday dinner
Tuesday -  Bangers and mash with roasted veggies
Wednesday - Chicken curry with rice 
Thursday - Taco soup
Friday -  
Saturday - 

On my to do list:::
Laundry
Dishes
Sweeping
Lots of unpacking
Quick run to the grocery store

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
Nothing at the moment but I can't wait to jump back into being crafty.

Looking around the house:::
Shawn is getting ready to run out and get subway for lunch, Ben is sweeping the stairs, and the girls are playing with dolls upstairs. We are all loving this house.

From the camera:::
At the beginning of the summer, this little cutie was too scared to be in the pool without a two hand death grip on either mom or dad while wearing a life jacket. The pool is about 4 feet deep so Ben is the only kiddo who can touch and keep his head out of water.  It's been about a month and she not only swims all over the pool in a life jacket or water wings, but will jump in and swim to the ladder with no floaties what so ever.  I'm so proud of her for her hard work, and over coming her fears. I should also point out that she is only allowed to go floatie free when an adult is right there working with her.




On my prayer list:::
A few people.


Something that inspires or brings a smile to your face:::

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...

Happy Homemaker Monday

The Weather::: Right now, it's 30 degrees.  It's supposed to get up to 40 today though. Right now I am: Sitting at the kitchen table with Scotland in my lap.  Rylie is playing with a remote control My Little Pony scooter toy on the kitchen floor. Thinking: How busy today is, what all I need to get done, and the walk I want to go on. On my reading pile::: Right now, I'm reading a book my sister-in-law loaned me called Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard On my tv::: I've got several shows to catch up on, just not sure how I'm going to fit TV in today.  Maybe during nap time. I've been really enjoying Super Store lately.  It really reminds me of The Office but in a Walmart type store.  It's nice to just laugh and laugh.  It's a lot easier to watch vlogs while I work on the iPad. Something fun to share::: This weekend we went to a birthday party for a little girl we've known for a couple of years and became friends with her family...
