It's been a nice break in busyness, and we are all ready to tackle the week. Lots to do.
On the breakfast plate . . .
The weather . . .
It's cold out and windy. Rain is in the forecast. Currently 34°F and 46-48mph winds are expected. I emptied my ash pail very early to avoid that blowing everywhere.
Right now I am . . .
Listening to the radio station as I zip around the house. They are doing a contest to help pay bills. They are giving away $1,000.00 to each winner when they announce to enter via text. Wouldn't that be nice? To win $1,000 to pay off some bills?
Thinking . . .
Ugh. I have been so relieved to have the holidays behind us, but I got a message there will be another on my side of the family. I'm thinking I am not up to cooking in mass amounts and do not want to make one more cookie recipe.
On the reading pile . . .
Lots and lots of library books that I have had before the Christmas gatherings. I really need to take time to look through them and check return dates.
On the TV . . .
The Ranch
On the menu this week . . .
Have no idea. I have to clean out the fridge first, but I know I have asparagus and brussel sprouts that need cooked.
On my to-do list . . .
-make garlic powder
-clean bathroom
-sort mail that arrived while gone
-sweep kitchen
-organize office area
What I am creating . . .
Lots of stuff. I got an order for 11 "f" bombs so that's first on the list. I'll have photos soon of the other items
Looking around the house . . .
Hm. Not sure where to start first, but I'll get started. One thing at a time.
From the camera . . .
On my prayer list . . .
Our kids.
I am catching up with my blog reading - what a gem that Hubby of yours is! Of course, he's got a gem in you, too. I'm glad you got a week of R&R. BTW, I'd let all family members know that the cut-off for any holiday obligations is January 5. I just made that up, but it sounds like a plan.
ReplyDeleteSusan, that is a perfect date to cut off "Christmas" gatherings. I'm so worn out from cooking/baking and cleaning. Yes, my hubby is a pure gem for sure.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure your hubby is...the photo is a perfect reminder of a lovely break away.
ReplyDeleteThank you mamasmercantile. That photo just screams total rest and relaxation. No stress, no worries, no responsibilities.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated 20th anniversary. I too need some rest & relaxation after the Christmas season. I think I'll take out a puzzle, that means slow-time :) Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYour breakfast is making me hungry! Ohhhh a hottub... I would love to have one!! So relaxing!! Are you liking the Ranch? I won't say to much as i don't know how far you are in.. I have watched all the seasons... I binge watch way too much! LOL Have a great week!!
ReplyDelete$1000 (or in my case £1000) would be just lovely right after Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI hear you about Christmas, I love it, but also love it when things get back to normal.
Have a great week.
Thanks Luludou
ReplyDeleteJodi, we love the Ranch. Very much enjoying it. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYes, Sarah, $1,000 right after Christmas would be grand.
ReplyDeleteYour to do list always makes me tired. Happy belated anniversary. Good luck on the radio contest and have a GREAT week.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamy, I have a lot to do this week. I may roll the list into next week.
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat wine glass in your first photo. Hope you find some time to relax with or without a hot tub (though a hot tub sounds so nice!). The F-bombs are funny, made me chuckle. My husband loved watching The Ranch. Hope you have a fantastic week ahead!
ReplyDeleteF bombs... lol!
ReplyDeletethe champagne and hot tub look very enticing!
Thanks LA Paylor
