The weekend went too fast, but we had a fantastic time with family. I took an orzo pasta salad, and a cold mostly sugar free carmel apple dessert. It was very nice to visit with everyone, and with help we figured out what the strange plant is growing in my asparagus patch (more on that later).
Trust me, I have more craft supplies to purge, but I am very behind on reading books. If I am not using something, or haven't used it in years, it is making it's way to another home.
We had to cancel our plans to go to a festival over the weekend, because it rained. We are thankful for the rain, as the gardens needed it.
The weather . . .
Right now I am . . .
Writing out my to-do's for the day, and waking up with coffee.
Thinking and pondering . . .
To purge all of my writing books or not. I used to freelance write when the kids were younger, and all lived at home, but I have not had the time, nor the desire lately. Getting the house in order (trust me the fractured foot set me back 2 months) has been on top of the list.
It's been on my brain, but I'm considering putting and end to this blog. Various reasons.
How I am feeling . . .
Depends on the weather, ha ha! If it's hot out, and I've been working out there, I'm too tired to do much when I come back inside.
I am however, back to a pretty good exercise plan, other than the treadmil. I'm still waiting on the final x-ray of my foot.
On the breakfast plate . . .
Have no idea yet.
On the lunch plate . . .
Chicken salad on cucumber slices, leftover orzo salad.
On the dinner plate . . .
If my husband doesn't call or text with a change in my plan, it's a sheet pan chicken sausage/sweet potato and green been dinner.
On the menu . . .
Anyone else have a husband that has a knack for meddling in the menu plan for the week? I'll have it all planned out, and he'll come home with burgers to grill or some other option.
I'm going to try my best to use up some food this week, that was intended for another day, including the green beans in our freezer from last year's garden.
On my reading pile . . .
Dug out a box of letters to get finished reading. I need to pass this on to another family member (part of my purge). I've had it since my Dad passed away.
On my TV this week . . .
Fried Green Tomatoes
Looking around the house . . .
I have a habit of starting the to-do list for the next day, and not finishing the current day list. In the end, I am still looking at piles of yarn, and other things like tablecloths I no longer use, that need to either be put in storage or passed on. I use them for tables when we have people over, so I may be saving them. Anyway, I am working on more areas of the house, so come fall, we can get back to bigger indoor repairs/painting, and what not.
To-do list . . .
(for the next two weeks, and in no particular order)
-harvest thyme
-dust
-wash master bath rugs, sweep and mop
From the camera . . .
I have nothing today. I had a pretty busy weekend, and the same last weekend, filled in with other projects and work around here.
Devotional, prayers, Bible Verses . . .
No current prayer requests.

Home made stuff can be great or not so great or even a right mess depending on who is doing the making and how good they are at it.
It is bloody cold here with a temp of only 4 degrees
