Good Morning!! I was definitely not ready for Monday morning, but it seemed to have come on anyway.
As I look outside my window:::
It's a chilly and gloomy day. It's supposed to rain and snow flurry all day at about 36 degrees.
Right now I am:::
Sitting at the kitchen counter, making my mental to do list of everything I have to do today, while Scottie is still asleep upstairs in my bed. The other kids are all at school.
Thinking and pondering:::
How to do everything I need and want to do in a day or a week. I'm seriously out of time and don't get to do the things I enjoy very often because I'm so busy with housework all day every day.
On my bedside table:::
My water bottle, iPad, TV remote and my book.
On my tv:::
I need to watch last week's Grey's Anatomy, and get caught up on Top Chef and Fixer Upper.
On the menu for this week:::
I need to work on my menu. It's one of my things on my to do list.

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
Nothing, but I'm hoping to start a crochet project or pick up an old one, this week.
My simple pleasure:::
Learning new editing tricks. I get so excited when I learn something new.
Lesson learned the past week:::
A little fresh air can make you feel like a whole new person. In the past few weeks, it's been so cold/snowy and icy that we've been locked up inside the house, outside of school and extra curricular activities. Yesterday, it was in the 60s and we spent most of the day playing outside and I felt like a new person. It's funny how I didn't realize that I was missing out on anything, as I enjoy the chunky sweaters, fuzzy socks, and being wrapped up in my blanket, inside the house. But after spending a whole day outside with the family, I feel refreshed.
Looking around the house:::
It's really quiet. Ben, Sydney and Rylie are all school, Shawn and Scottie are still asleep. The dogs are still asleep. The house around me could use a little picking up, but nothing major. I'd like to make some coffee, but I know that grinding the beans will wake up the pups and Scottie for sure. I need to probably get Shawn up, as he does have to work.
From the camera:::
My happy place. As a busy momma, who never has time for herself, even after the kids go to bed, baths rarely happen for me. Last week, I had 2!
