Happy Homemaker Monday (3-20-2017)

Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine was good. I needed the 2 days to get stuff done at home and to rest from our whirlwind trip we took to Cleveland and Canton Thursday and Friday. I will have recaps of everything we did up later this week. We had a lot of fun! I was able to get a few things done this weekend that I had been putting off, like ordering new bras, doing some paperwork, finishing up our taxes, etc.

So far today, Ben and I have taken the older 2 kids to school and then we went to the grocery store as we were completely out of produce and milk. I also had to put gas in the van. Now we are back at home and I am taking a moment to join in with the lovely Sandra over at "Diary of a Stay at Home Mom" in her Happy Homemaker Monday meme.

Speaking of Sandra, if you are a praying person could you say a prayer or two for her this week. She has a family funeral to go to today and some medical tests later this week as a followup to a mammogram. She could really use some prayers and good thoughts!

So let's get started: 

THE WEATHER:::
Today it is supposed to be 50 degrees and cloudy with a  chance of rain showers.

ON MY READING PILE:::
Still reading "Wonder." I just can't get in the mood to sit and read for any period of time.

ON MY TV:::

On Friday nights, we typically do pizza and a movie for the kids. This year I would like to try to remember what movies we have watched, so I will be recapping here. This past Friday night, I actually was in bed while the kids watched a movie with Bill. I think they watched "Big Hero 6." Other than that we have been watching a lot of the NCAA tournament.

ON THE MENU FOR THIS WEEK:::

MONDAY: chicken patty sandwiches, French fries, and cantaloupe
TUESDAY: bratwurst, macaroni and cheese, and green beans

WEDNESDAY: hamburger helper and peas (leftovers for me)

THURSDAY: pulled pork nachos and fruit

FRIDAY: fish sticks and clam strips, baked potatoes, green beans

SATURDAY: pizza and fruit

SUNDAY: ????

ON MY TO-DO LIST FOR THIS WEEK:::
Monday: Go to the grocery store, Ben speech and OT, tutor, trash and recycling to curb

Tuesday: kids to school, tutor, AHG meeting for Rebecca

Wednesday: kids to school, tutor

Thursday: kids to school, tutor

Friday: kids to school, Ben picture day

And each day has the daily housework that needs to be done.

LOOKING AROUND THE HOUSE:::

It doesn't look too bad considering we were home all weekend. I need to mop the downstairs and clean the bathrooms.  


FROM THE CAMERA:::

A few pictures of where we were at Thursday....

WHAT I'M WEARING TODAY:::

Jeans, a blue and white striped tunic, and brown flats

 

SIMPLE PLEASURE:::
Enjoying nice cold fruit. I love cold fruit.

DEVOTIONAL OR QUOTE:::

This is a quote that was on a display board at the place that we visited on Friday.

So there you have it. A little peek into my life on this Monday. Hope everyone has had a great day and let's see what this week will bring!
