Welcome to March! It’s been way too kind to us so far.
Almost feel as if this post should come with a trigger warning for those of you suffering from spring fever. Consider yourselves warned.
Now, let’s get on with planning this week by joining in with Sandra over at Diary Of A Stay At Home Mom.
The Weather 
Our second day in a row with sunshine and warm temperatures. Yesterday was just unbelievable, 72 degrees! Oh, I didn’t even know how much my soul needed to be out working around the yard in that sunshine.
Least you get too jealous, after today’s predicted high of 61, the temps fall. We’re back to highs in the mid to upper 40’s with rain showing on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I’ll be shocked if we get that much rain though.
As I Look Outside My Window
I see sunshine!!
Thinking And Pondering 
Yesterday’s church sermon on consumerism versus the simple life Jesus led. Probably not the best summary but the message spoke to me. Had me thinking about how often I’ve been buying things I don’t really need.
On My Bedside Table
The usual, lamp and phone charger. Of course, I’m not sure what’s in the drawer. And I also have some sweaters to put away stacked on the open shelving part. I also keep my camera in the open shelving part.
On My TV Tonight
A rare free Monday night here. If The Voice is on tonight, I might watch it. If not, no idea.
On My Reading Pile
Finished If It Bleeds by Stephen King and haven’t started anything new yet. Probably need to check the due date on the My Hygge Home book. Might just spend some time looking at my magazines and garden catalogs this week.
Listening To
Washing machine spin cycle.
On The Lunch Plate
Possibly a grilled cheese maybe with tomato soup
On The Dinner Plate
Grilled pork chops, asparagus, baked potatoes
On The Menu This Week
Not too much going on this week.
MONDAY: Grilled Pork Chops, Asparagus, Baked Potatoes, and I think I’m making a strawberry pie
TUESDAY: Chicken Parmigiana (precooked chicken patties) , salad *I work 8:15-3:45*
WEDNESDAY: Roast in the Crock Pot
THURSDAY: Husband’s Choice *Mom’s Night Out* *I work 2:30-6*
FRIDAY: Chicken and Noodles
SATURDAY/SUNDAY IDEAS: Leftovers/Chili/Burgers/Hot Dogs/ OUT
On My To Do List
Lots of things. We’ll see how many happen today…this is more of a for the week list.
- Call trash company about getting some yard waste stickers
- Wash all the bedding
- Replace the Terro in the pantry/bathroom (trying to get ahead of the spring ants)
- Make a potential meal list from items in the pantry and freezer (both need a good clearing)
- Prep fruit and veggies in fridge
- Pick the blooming daffodils before the freezing weather arrives
- Buy cat food (need to check our local Target for this)
- Clean the house
- Get more starter trays to start veggie seeds
- Make a strawberry pie
Plans This Week
Get all the bedding washed and changed over (both boys still have flannel sheets on their beds), Go to Mom’s Night Out, and do a little Spring Break planning (it’s next week)
What I’m Creating
Nothing currently, just starting to think of what I want to plant in the front yard flower garden and on the front porch.
Simple Pleasure
Springtime! 
Looking Around The House 
Um, don’t you want to look around the yard instead? I can show you our blooming daffodils?
It’s even nice enough we can sit on the front porch bench though there aren’t any blooming flowers yet.
From The Camera
As you can hopefully tell, I did pick the camera up a bit more often last week.
Quote For The Week
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. (Matthew 6:21)

Day 64/365
Hello! Your spring pictures are beautiful. I did see a robin in the yard if that counts! We didn’t really have a winter to speak of here in Pennsylvania, but I guess I am ready for spring anyway! And strawberry pie? Count me in for a slice!
Seeing a robin in the yard definitely counts! Our lack of winter was very strange here as well but I’m ready for spring, hoping we do get one of thoses! The strawberry pie was okay, not a huge hit like I’d hoped.
Oh how lovely to live through this post dear Jean!
I’m so envious of your green and flowers and sun. And real ability to work in the yard! Even when we eventually get warm weather here it will take weeks to melt SO MUCH SNOW! I feel like I won’t be seeing my daffs until May at this rate. Lol
I often think about the consumerism thing too. And the thing is I truly do find the most joy in the simplest of things. It’s good to a get a priority wake up call now and then.
I pray you have a lovely week ahead and not too much rain. Enjoy those daffs extra for me! 😉 xo
Well, now the sun and warm weather is balancing out with a predicted four days of clouds and rain. No snow though so I’m ok with it. Oh, things will be so green around there from all your snow melt though. Hang in there, spring is coming! Hope you are having a great week!
Oh my flowers and flower buds, enjoy them. We’re still buried under snow here.
Have a great week
We got really lucky (maybe?) in the snowfall department this winter with not too much. Of course, I’m hoping it doesn’t mean we’re in for another huge drought over the summer. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!
So nice to see your daffodils blooming! Mine aren’t even poking through the ground yet. Have a great week!
Just on the south side of the house that gets lots of sun. Of course, my others are coming up…hope you see signs of your daffodils soon. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
I’m glad March is being kind to someone! 6 days in and I’m praying for April 😀 I LOVE all your pictures! You do certainly have spring fever. I hope you have a WONDERFUL week and March continues to be kind. 😀
April will be here sooner than later probably. Thank you. Yes, I’m going to be sad if we end up with one of those late season snowstorms. Of course, it was supposed to be cold and rainy today but it’s not bad out there at all.
What a beautiful springtime post! You have a lot of things to do. I hope you have the week you want! The daffodils are adorable!
Thank you! Didn’t get much of my list done the past two days, need to really work on things today.
I love all the spring! Especially the birds and the flowers, beautiful! We have quite awhile before we see any of that here. Have a wonderful week!
Thank you, seems early for all of it around here but I’ll take it. Hope you have a wonderful week as well!
