Happy Homemaker Monday

I've got a bit "to-do" list to keep me busy for sure.  First the green beans needed picked, so that's off the list as I post this.
-water everything (again)-write out a menu for a camping trip
-clean up house and kitchen mostly
-laundry
-sweep and mop
-clean out fridge
-clean and freeze green beans
-freeze blackberries
-the list goes on and on....






Today I'm joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.  


The weather outside is . . .
Hot!  Gonna be up to 91°F and heat index will be hotter.

How I am feeling this morning. . . 
Better than yesterday, but dragging.  I hope my to-do list will help with that. 


On my mind . . . 
Geeze.  A lot.  Youngest daughter, us, her boyfriend's family, her boyfriend's best friend's family....a lot!  Looking forward to a few camping trips too.


On the breakfast plate . . .
Nothing.  It's almost 11am and all I've had is coffee.


On my reading pile . . .
My Bible, devotionals

On my TV . . .
Sons of Anarchy


On the menu . . . .
-Homemade meatballs, homemade hot banana pepper sauce (crock pot), jalapeno creamed corn (crock pot), and home grown green beans, tomato cucumber salad
-have no idea


From the camera . . .


Looking around the house . . .
It's in disarray, but hopefully I can straighten'r up today (a bit).


Chore I am not looking forward to this week . . .
Clean out the fridge.  I swear there are things growing in there and most unidentifiable.  Sigh...


Something I want to share . . .
Nothing online, just some projects on the hooks.  Will share a post later hopefully.


On my prayer list . . .
Youngest, Us, friends of ours, this country, our President, our state (the Governor is out of control!!!!).

Pretty picture! Ugh, you reminded me I also need to clean out my fridge (again). Not my favorite chore either. Hope you have a great week!

Hey after the fridge confession I imagine that you won the science fair at school !😊

I'm intrigued by your meatballs.
Also, cleaning out the fridge is my least favorite chore EVER.
Try and have a good week!
Goatldi, thanks for the good laugh!
Joanna, I think I have the meatball recipe on here somewhere. I'll try and find it for you. As for the sauce this time, it was a new recipe. Seems like I was to put up a recipe for the green pepper pesto too. I'll work on that this week.

Hope that camping trip gives everyone some relief from heat and some healing for y’all hearts! I think I enjoy cleaning the fridge even less than cleaning the durn cat box! Just a necessary evil! Lol ! Have a great day!
wyomingheart, I am so looking forward the camping trip.

I like the picture. I understand about LONG to-do lists... I wonder why some people never have long lists though?
Have fun camping!
Thanks Luludou, I just hope it doesn't rain on us, ha ha! It's in a few weeks, and we have been complaining about our drought year. Then again we can play cards in the camper and cook under the awning, but I do love campfire meals.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger. 

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
