Bit late today for no good reason. I probably would’ve waited until tomorrow but now I’m working on Tuesday. Maybe I’ll get a full week vacation next week. It’s my new plan.
Current plan is to write this Happy Homemaker Monday post and then, link it over at Diary Of A Stay At Home Mom.
The Weather
HOT. I knew we weren’t done with summer quite yet. Heat advisory today, storms tomorrow, not sure about the rest of the week.
Right Now
Had to pause to let the cat back outside. Heat advisory weather is her favorite, we can hardly get her in here. Ice cubes in her water dish and she’s happy out there.
Thinking and Pondering
Need to send an email out to my work that I won’t be working Friday or all of next week. As much as I love the kids, I *need* some time off…
How I am Feeling
Would you believe I’m still trying to shake whatever I had 2 weeks ago. I feel better but the sinus stuff just wants to linger. UGH. I do feel 110 times better than last week, hoping taking an extra day to just rest (sort of) today helped.
On the Breakfast Plate
Yogurt and a sausage patty, vitamins, black elderberry syrup, coffee, and water
On the Lunch Plate
Junk, didn’t really eat lunch
On The Dinner Plate
Hamburgers on the grill, French Fries, watermelon
On The Menu
There’s a great question!
MONDAY: grilled hamburgers, French fries, watermelon
TUESDAY: Shrimp in air fryer (heat n eat), corn on the cob, mini cucumbers (Might make it into cucumber salad if I feel ambitious later)
WEDNESDAY: Spicy Korean Chicken
THURSDAY: It’s our wedding anniversary! Nothing exciting for 26 years but I am hoping I don’t have to cook dinner. Of course, my husband said he thinks he’s getting my cold stuff so yay. SIGH.
FRIDAY: Maybe waffles? I don’t know….
What I Am Wearing Today
Flowered tee-shirt, olive green shorts, and currently my leopard print shoes
On My Reading Pile
I’ve been reading The Night Agent by Matthew Quirk. I watched the Netflix series some time last year, maybe, but didn’t know it was a book. Book is pretty good, series really followed it.
On My TV This Week
Over the weekend, I discovered Ginny and Georgia on Netflix. And…I’ve already finished it. Think a gritty and very dark spin on Gilmore Girls. I loved it! Um, probably wouldn’t want to watch it with younger friends, I’d say older teenagers and above…definitely some mature scenes and topics.
Looking Around the House
Well, I did clean the main bathroom today but it’s still not ready for a photo shoot. Here is a picture of our new living room rug instead.
We had to replace the old one because the edges kept curling, tripping hazard.
On My To Do List
What’s that saying about so much to do so I’ll just take a nap instead. That’s how I feel.
- Grocery store *DONE*
- Target run *DONE*
- Laundry *Uh Oh*
- So much cleaning…funny thing is I was out of cleaning supplies. If you run out of cleaning supplies, wouldn’t you think it would mean your house is super clean? Turns out it doesn’t.
- Mow the lawn
- Measure flower pots for plants that need replanted/make list of plants that need to come inside
- Figure out message the blog hosting people sent me, something to do with memory, hoping I fixed things
- Pick up my camera!
From The Camera
(phone camera still). Pictures of paintings. A teacher I used to work with does paint nights close to us and I usually try and go. I really liked the ocean pour painting one.
The one last Friday was a sunset, not as fond of it but I’ll share it here as well.
Quote for the Week
An oldie but a favorite:
Jean,
Happy Anniversary! It is no fun to be sick when you hoped to make a day special. I hope you will recover quickly.
Enjoyed reading about your day.
Blessings!
Wow, time got away from me (again). Thank you for your comment. We had an okay very low-key anniversary, thank you. Hope your week is off to a wonderful start!
Happy anniversary to you lovely Friend! 💝
Also, I sure hope you kick that crud once a for all. Geesh! 🙏🏻
That new show sounds like a good one – I’m going to check that out. Thanks for sharing!
I love that new rug. 😍 Such pretty colors.
And so impressed with the paintings. That ocean one is stellar! 💙
Blessings. xoxo
I’m having a hard time getting back into the blogging rhythm over here, apologies for such a late response! After a very low-key anniversary (my sick hubby did get me the nicest card!), I think we are all finally healthy over here. The ocean painting was my favorite. Hope your week is off to a great start!
Hope both you and your husband feel better. Happy Anniversary!
I do like the new rug.
Have a great week
Super late reply, can’t seem to get back into the blogging but I’m trying. Thank you for the health and anniversary wishes, doing much better over here. Hope your week is off to a great start!
Still playing catch up – sorry to be so very late.! Happy anniversary! Sorry you were feeling so yucky – hope all is better by now. I LOVE that ocean pour painting – NICE! I also hope you got that week off and are enjoying it!
I can’t seem to catch up on this blog so no apologies! Thank you, and yes, we are all healthy over here. Just got a week off last week and now *I hope* it looks like things might slow down a bit. Hope your new week is off to a wonderful start!
