HAPPY HOMEMAKER MONDAY with MENUS week 40 of 2023 ~ BLOG 365.275

Be sure to join us for Happy Homemaker Monday and link up with our host, Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom

The weather has been absolutely glorious lately. this week is supposed to be in the 60’s and then the 80’s for 2 days before dropping back into the 60’s. Night time lows are in the low 40’s so all is good by me.

This is a confusing category for me these days. SO much on my mind – much of which I have spilled out on the past few previous Mondays, but also some I’m just not sure about yet…

A couple of sips of coffee and a yogurt.

THIS WEEK’S TO DO LIST, PROJECTS & APPOINTMENTS
  • LAUNDRY & CLEANING I’m pretty up to date on most things.
  • GROCERIES & ERRANDS I finally did a major grocery run and got caught up on errands. I do have a pedicure this week and a couple small errands I’ll do on that same day while I’m in town.
  • PAPERWORK, PHONE CALLS, PROJECTS & TRAVELS No travels planned, but a few Eagles projects crept up yesterday that require work today :SIGH: it’s a never ending list there. I got through a bit of paperwork and will finish the rest later this week. I do have an after event meeting today for the Eagle’s conference so we’ll see how that goes.
  • RECIPE RESEARCH & MENU PLANNING Menu is planned through the end of the month and in flux after that.

WHAT’S ON THE DVR/TV
  • We’ve been watching old Laramie reruns. I’d never even heard of it before 😀 We’re caught up on football and Nascar and most old cooking shows, but I need to catch up on holiday (Halloween) shows.

I’m about half way through Heather Webber’s At The Coffee Shop of Curiosities.

I’ve been house/cat sitting for my neighbor and Kit Kat won’t let me leave without making sure she’s had treats.

I haven’t been taking many pictures other than food, but did capture this skyline a couple days ago that really makes me glad fall is here and the rain is back!

Hello dear Friend!
Sorry I’m late this week. I always love visiting here and all the beautiful inspiration and cozy you bring. 🙂
I’m so glad the temps are getting lovely. It’s cooling down here now too and may be in the 40’s by this weekend!! Time to go pick up some pumpkins and mums for outside, as I haven’t done that yet.
Such a sweet kitty – you’re a wonderful momma stand-in. Lol
Blessings on the rest of your week. xoxo

Thank you! I really enjoy doing my own shopping – I’m always afraid of someone else just tossing in this or that and not checking for ripeness or bruising etc… I hope your week is awesome too!

I always love your graphics they are so informative! I never knew that about watermelon! I need to stop doing online grocery orders and pick them out myself lol! I love the idea of having a monthly menu plan, I need to try that since we are in a new month! I hope you get some downtime this week, thanks so much as always for sharing! Have a great week!
