Happy Homemaker Tuesday, Time Change Blues

Oops, I think I overshot the spring forward bit as it’s now Tuesday! Really, just a fairly busy Monday.

I’ll skip the part where I share my opinions on this spring forward stuff and just suffice it to say Sunday wasn’t exactly the best day. Been in a bit of a mood the past couple of days. However, here we are at a beautiful sunny and warm Tuesday!

A day late but still linking up with Sandra over at Diary Of A Stay At Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday.

The Weather

Spring is coming!

It’s sunny and in the 50’s this morning. It was almost 80 degrees yesterday. However, rain and cooler temps (should say normal weather) predicted for the weekend.

As I Look Outside My Window

Blue skies and sunshine!

Right Now I Am

Taking a break from my put away the heavy winter sweaters project. So, yes, if it snows (shudder) again, it’ll be my fault. I do think we’re done with the crazy cold though. And I don’t have anything to wear for warmer days (workwise) so it was time for a mini clothing switch.

Something Fun To Share

Kansas City is a host city for the World Cup in 2026 and Tech N9ne released the theme song for our city this morning:

Thinking And Pondering

Do you really want to know? Probably not.

On My Bedside Table

Currently, nothing just the way I like it. We aren’t going to talk about the husband’s table. Suffice it to say: opposite.

On My TV

Excited to watch the first episode of The Spring Baking Championship later this afternoon (or tomorrow if I run out of time today).

On My Reading Pile

Finished The Night We Lost Him by Laura Dave. Gave up on The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt, skimmed it and gave it back for the next person. Now, I’m reading Arkangel by James Rollins.

Listening To

Silence.

On The Menu For This Week

The beginnings of some chicken tortilla soup I made Saturday afternoon

 

It’s all on my grocery list which is somewhere in my purse….

MONDAY: Stir fried potatoes and ham from the Korean cookbook. *It was a success*

TUESDAY: I’m going out so may just leave it up to the husband

WEDNESDAY: Grilled pork chops, asparagus

THURSDAY: Chicken wraps, air fryer French fries

FRIDAY: Open or Rigatoni pasta with vodka sauce and spicy Italian sausage (probably this)

On My To Do List

just to continue to get the yard and inside ready for spring, also sort through and organize the pantry (I’m trying to stock up a bit here and there just in case), and the usual grocery store/laundry/cleaning/pay the bills stuff

Happening This Week

  • What idiot makes an haircut appointment for 9AM on the Monday after daylight savings? This one! SIGH.
  • I work today and Thursday from 2-4 PM (Could change but right now I’m good with a lighter schedule this week)
  • Mom’s Night Out tonight (Tuesday), meeting friends for dinner/drinks
  • Grouchiness from the time change
  • Hopefully, lots of yard clean-up

What I Am Creating

Some  “word art” on my mango Pepsi (I read somewhere they weren’t making it anymore so picked some up yesterday, it’s my favorite but I don’t drink it very often which means sometimes other people drink it all before I’ve had a even one can):

My Simple Pleasure

The hope of spring (and summer) flowers starting to bloom

Lesson Learned The Past Week

Sometimes it’s just as important to speak up as it is to KMBMS (keep my big mouth shut). The key is knowing when to do each. Ongoing struggle.

Looking Around The House

I cleaned a bit yesterday so it’s not awful but still needs attention

From The Camera

Yet another week where I didn’t pick up the real camera. Actually, I did pick it up and try to go for a walk but the road to the park I wanted to visit was closed. And the other place was way too busy. SIGH. Maybe tomorrow? 

Prayer List

Friends, family, strangers, the country, the world. Health, peace, compassion, and kindness.

Quote For The Week

22 And Jesus said unto him, “I say not unto thee, until seven times, but until seventy times seven.
