Happy Homemaker Monday

The weekend went by way too fast.  Yesterday flew past.  Hubby had to work, so I did more carpet shampooing, took a short motorcycle ride, and expected more rain.  Thankfully, we didn't get any rain.  Today I'm joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.

On the breakfast plate . . .

Strawberry pancakes, coffee



The weather outside . . .
Absolutely gorgeous.  No rain, beautiful sunshine, not too hot either.


On my reading pile . . .
Late library books. Oops.


On the TV . . . 
McCleod's Daughters


On the menu . . .
Have no clue yet, ha ha!  Leftovers tonight and maybe a new radish side dish.


On the to-do list . . .
-laundry
-muck the coop
-cut garlic scapes
-dishes
-weed garlic bed (what a mess!!!)
-weed herb garden (another HUGE mess)
-wash down more woodwork
-check the peas
-pick red raspberries



-pick radishes
-weed flower beds (oh my, what a job this will be)
-take trash out


What I am crocheting, knitting, sewing or creating . . .

The ripple crochet blanket is still in progress.  It's the most "current" project, but you know I still have a bunch of half finished projects too.


Looking forward to this week . . .
The weekend.  Although the heat wave returns, I'm still looking forward to it.  They are saying a heat index of 117°F possibly.  


From the camera . . .
This morning's sunrise.  After days and days of rain and clouds, it was just beautiful to see.

  2. What a beautiful sunrise! And those red raspberries just make me smile :) My dad used to grow them along our backyard fence, nothing beats eating them freshly picked. Hope you have a great week!

  3. I am so glad you are getting a break from the rain! Aren't the weeds awful this year? Even with our dry weather, the weeds are thriving. I love that blanket - it is going to be beautiful. I'm with you - already looking forward to the weekend!

  6. Susan, we are tickled pink for the rain to stop. It's very wet out there, and the weeds are taller than the plants. I successfully weeded one section of my garlic today, but have two more to go. The thistle in them are terrible this year. Now I can at least see where the scapes are, lol! Thanks for the kudos on the blanket too.
