WEEKEND RECAP

I spent Saturday primarily at an Eagle’s function and then at an impromptu birthday party in the evening. Sunday was another lazy day with friends and football and I did get a little baking done.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

THE WEATHER OUTSIDE

FINALLY the fog is here in the mornings as our lows are nearing the 30’s. This week is predicted to be in the 70’s. YAY Fall is here!

ON MY MIND

Prayers for all of those people affected by Hurricane Helene and for the first responders helping them to begine to dig out and rebuild. The devastation is just mind boggling – so much loss on so many levels.

TO DO LIST, APPOINTMENTS & PROJECTS

THIS WEEK’S TO DO LIST, PROJECTS & APPOINTMENTS

LAUNDRY & CLEANING I didn’t get as much done over the weekend as I had hope. I also have a pile of ironing amassing, but at this point will save it for a rainy day (literally) since it is primarily summer blouses. I washed the vacuum filters and am trying to get a few pre-Halloween projects done. GROCERIES & ERRANDS I’ll be leaving here in a bit to do all sorts of errands and my grocery shopping. RECIPE RESEARCH & MENU PLANNING I’m still working on some new fall recipes, but did make a really good Peasant Stew on Saturday night that I’ll be sharing soon.

DVR/TV TIME

WHAT’S ON THE DVR/TV

I’ve been so busy that I haven’t gotten into too many of the new shows, but will get many recorded this week.
