Happy Homemaker Monday

 We got away for another adventure over the weekend.  A fall foliage trip.  








The colors were absolutely gorgeous.  The weather not so good, but we still had a good time.


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

The weather . . .
51°/34°F

How I am feeling this morning . . .

Tired.  I didn't sleep well, with a lot on my mind, despite our weekend away.  I came home to a dirty kitchen, and it's time to do a family meeting with Daughter K about her housekeeping (lack of is a better word).


On my mind . . .

See above.  I've been up since 3am.  


On the breakfast plate . . .

Have no clue.  Egg production is down, so there is that.


Right now I am . . .

Doing dishes, getting dinner in the crock pot and getting my head together to make a to-do list.


On my reading pile . . .

Nothing.


On today's to-do list . . .

-make a plan for the rest of the week, as I have to get it together today first.


On my TV . . .

How to get away with murder - Netflix


On the menu . . .

Working on it.  


From the camera . . .

See weekend trip photos above.


Looking around the house . . .

It's a mess, but mostly due to a lazy daughter.


New recipe I tried or want to try . . .

A homemade cake recipe I want to try.


To relax this week I will . . . 

Crochet


Prayer list . . .

All the families that also recently lost loved ones.

More Stocking Up and Random Chit-Chat

 






Stocked up more on broccoli, asparagus and bell peppers.


Stocked up on a few more of these disposable pans.  They have come in handy for delivered dishes.
