Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday

GOOD MORNING sweet friends.  I hope you all had a GREAT week and safe Halloween.  Our Halloween was a bit quieter than previous years, but the little ones had the cutest costumes.  It was another of those weeks that just flew by for me and I didn’t get my entire list accomplished. I’ll reorganize, reprioratize and try to get it finished this week 😀

OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE  Normally at this time of year we are a bit dreary.  I don’t know what happened this year – maybe it was the early COLD snap or something, but it has been a perfect fall – COOL, CRISP and CLEAR.  This week is supposed to be the same, but a bit warmer day and night before the gray, rainy days look like they’ll be reappearing. 

ON THE BREAKFAST PLATE Banana with caramelized balsamic vinegar and hot water

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

  • LAUNDRY, LIVING AREAS & KITCHEN… looking good
  • YARD… all set for the winter
  • APPOINTMENTS & TO DO… hubby has a couple and I have a nail appointment
  • BLOG… BLOGEMBER posts, a few recipes and some crafts coming up
  • CRAFTS/PROJECTS… Bowling Pin snowman family and Christmas card tower

ON MY MIND / THINGS THAT ARE MAKING ME HAPPY So far I have kept up with BLOGEMBER posts and finished strong on BLOGTOBER too.

I wish they’d just leave Daylight savings time alone! Go back to the way God intended and make life just a little less confusing 😀

WHAT IS ON THE DVR, I LIKE OR ON THE LIST TO WATCH/SOMETHING INTERESTING I WATCHED The DVR is mostly clear of our normal shows we watch and we saw a couple of Red Box movies:

  • 10 MINUTES GONE
  • CRAWL

I’M READING SWAMP SANTA by Jana DeLeon, part of the Miss Fortune series.

Hi Sweetie!
That daylight savings saying is priceless!

And your other inspirations are so funny. I can’t imagine some of the college photos there would have been of me had there been smart phones then. Yikes!

That winter pork roast recipe sounds amazing – another one I’m stealing. I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead dear Tamy!! ❤️

Daylight savings is ridiculous, at least in my opinion. I loved living in Arizona where we never participated in it, so whole year long we stayed the same, it was amazing lol

Looking forward to your crafts. Hope you’ve been having a great week!!!

Rebecca

Enjoyed reading this week’s post. Your food photos are fantastic and, yes, I wish they’d stop the whole daylight saving time thing and leave time alone! I love the idea of BLOGEMBER and wish I had gotten in on it, but seriously doubt that I could have kept up with it this year. It seems I can barely keep up with just my Monday posts. Love the turkey funny! LOL! Hope your week is going well! Blessings! 🙂
