and with Laura at I’m an Organizing Junkie for Menu Plan Monday.

GOOD MORNING!  I hope everyone had as nice a weekend as we did.  The weather was gorgeous and I was able to get a few projects accomplished and a little weeding done as well as the regular chores.  

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE & WHAT I’M WEARING – WOW I know it’s a BIG surprise, but it’s raining! LOL 😀  The weekend was GORGEOUS! We even hit 68 most of Saturday.  That’s over though as this morning is gray, cloudy, foggy and rainy too!  I have on Levi’s, a long sleeve Life is Good Tee and flip flops LOL I’m getting my toes done so I’m stuck with those until I get home! 😀

ON THE BREAKFAST PLATE – Having a bit of an issue again so we’re back to baby food. Today is Carrot Apple Pineapple – It’s actually not bad – I love these squeeze packs 😀 Tea is bothering me again so I’m back to hot water instead of tea also.

AS I LOOK AROUND THE HOUSE/WEEKLY TO DO LIST & HOUSE PROJECTS/CRAFT BASKET/APPOINTMENTS

  • LAUNDRY… just 1 load
  • LIVING AREAS… dust, vacuum
  • KITCHEN… deep clean
  • YARD… fence repairs continue, weeding
  • BLOG… recipe updating
  • CRAFTS/PROJECTS… nothing this week
  • APPOINTMENTS… just a couple
  • TO DO… errands and groceries today – making a list for the rest of the week

ON MY MIND / THINGS THAT ARE MAKING ME HAPPY

I’M READING I just finished the 2nd book in a series that doesn’t have another ready and I probably won’t return to even when they do and had yet to choose a new one – just too tired at night to actually get any reading done.  Then I found one of my favorite series that is a crossover to a 2nd series that I thought had ended has a “transition” book leading to a 3rd new series.  What I love is that even during the dozen books from the first series there were subtle references to this and direct links to the 2nd series.  Her crossovers and seamless and the characters end up blending together so well you sometimes forget which series they belong to.

WHAT IS ON THE DVR, I LIKE OR ON THE LIST TO WATCH There still isn’t a ton to watch, but I did get a few more old movies watched as well as one I’d never even heard of despite the big names in it.

FAVORITE PHOTO FROM THE CAMERA I just love OLD barns!

Hello dear Tamy! Sorry you’re still having the eating issues. That totally stinks!! Hope it gets better soon.

Love that seedlings idea – so practical and great for the environment. I love your old barn pic – so cool. And I love your funny. You have no idea how much I”d love a “folder”! Especially when I’ve been doing all of my mom’s laundry for her too. Lol Just to have it fold darn fitted sheets alone would be worth every penny! ;0)

Wishing you blessings on the rest of your week xoxo

Thank you – I hope you had a WONDERFUL week too and aren’t going to get too much more “winter” weather up your way. It truly is the winter that won’t quit!

Sandra

Isn’t the weather insane? We hit 80 and now we’re back to 40 and 50 and cold. So annoying lol

Sorry you are not feeling well, really hope you feel better very soon. Have a wonderful week 🙂

Jean

Great barn picture! The funny one with the washer, dryer, and folder, is missing the “putting it away” machine. LOL! Hope you can get back to your normal food. Glad the baby food isn’t too bad. Have a great week!

QuiltLady

LOL 😀 you are not the first person to say that. My girlfriend has been asking for the put awayer feature for quite some time now – a long standing joke between us. I hope you had a great week.

I love love old barns. And dilapidated old farmhouses. I want to sneak into all of them to see what’s there.
sorry about the food thing… how annoying. I love my iced tea poor you. I think baby food is probably pretty nutritious tho.

QuiltLady

I know me too, but then I think of that last scene in Twister when they go into that barn full of scythes and I just shudder at the though 😀 I hope you had a GREAT week.

Lucie

I like the Good food quote! so true.
In my drawing class we just drew an old barn, I love old barns.
Hope you can back to normal food quickly.
Have a great week.

Good morning, Sweet Friend! I used to love getting the Gerber Cherry Vanilla Pudding (I’m guessing they still make it)! A lot of times I would buy it and serve it as dessert for the whole family! LOL! They loved it, too! 😀 Your menus look great (as always! and now I finally know what C.O.R.N. is!!!…I know…sometimes I’m super slow!!!) and I love the garden tip about planting seedlings in citrus cups! What a great idea! Love the old barn photo, too! I will have to try to remember to get some pics of the ones around here and share them with you. There are LOTS of them!!! Have a blessed week ahead! <3
