Happy Homemaker Monday - January 20, 2014

Linking up again with Diary of A Stay At Home Mom for HHM. 


As I look outside my window:
I don't have to even be outside to see how cold it is.  It looks cold.  It's about 20 degrees and there are small patches of snow laying here and there.  There is more snow in the forecast for tomorrow.  4 - 8 inches.  Yuck!  At least the kids love playing in it. 

Right now I am:
Sipping on a cup of coffee, watching the news and typing this up.  Little one is still sleeping and my son, who has the day off of school, has been spending the long weekend at my parents' house.  I will be meeting them for lunch at Chuck E Cheese and taking him home from there.  I miss him. 

Thinking and pondering:
About what needs done this week and what I want to make for dinner tonight.

On my bedside table:
My Bible, both my kids' baby books which still needs updating, a kindle with lots of stories I'm not in the mood to read.

On my tv tonight:
Probably just Cake Boss and Bakery Boss.

Listening to:
The news.

On the menu for this week:
I'm seriously going to skip this right now.  Sorry.  I'll figure it out.

On my to do list:
Figure out what to make for dinner tonight and the rest of the week.
Daily exercise
Laundry
House cleaning

Plans for this week:
Meeting my parents for lunch today and bringing my son home.
My son has two days off and two early dismissals this week.  Although with the snow in the forecast tomorrow, which would be his only full day, I'm sure they will be closed.  Lots of fun with him to be had!
Story time at the library with my girl.

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:
Nothing as of now.

My simple pleasure:
I have probably said all I can think of in previous weeks so I may end up repeating myself.  I love sitting with a cup of hot coffee and enjoying the silence before the chaos of the day starts.

Lesson learned the past week:
Let go and give it to God.

Looking around the house:
Still have my son's Christmas drawings hanging on the walls, toys stacked up in the corner of the room, the sun is trying to peak through the living room window. 

From the camera:


 Prayer list:
My children
My patience
My husband
My family and friends

Bible verse/devotional:

"Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret, it leads only to evildoing. For evildoers will be cut off, But those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land." - Psalms 37:7-9
