{ Happy Homemaker Monday - 01/28/2019 }

Good morning everyone, hope you've had a wonderful weekend.

I didn't get a chance to do any posts, as I was busy with family.  We met my brother and his family for breakfast on Saturday morning, and then Jasmine had to work as well, so it was a bit of a rushed Saturday.

Sunday we did absolutely nothing, Nick is once again coming down with a cold, Jasmine was tired from work and cramping because, you know......girly things, and my husband just wanted to relax before returning to work this morning.  So we stayed home, played computer games together and just enjoyed a day of family.

Now here we are again, the beginning of a new week and I need to get a lot of housework done today, since I didn't really do much the past two days.

Let's get started with our Happy Homemaker Monday and see what is on the agenda for us all this week.

The weather:::
Looks like we are having a pretty mild week around here.  This past weekend was quite cold, freeze on the grass and the cars and all.  We're starting off today at 37 degrees so it's a bit on the cold side but nothing compared to the 20 degrees we just had.

What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
Still working on the Buffalo Plaid Blanket, didn't get a chance to even pick it up the past few days. 


Looking around the house:::
Hot mess, that's what it is.  My floors desperately need vacuuming, and the house needs a good dusting as well.  See, it's not always perfect around here, I also have my moments where the house is not all that put together.    


From the camera:::
I wish I could live completely surrounded by books, of every size, of every color and subject. 

What I'm wearing today:::
Still in my nightie, but have my sweat pants on already because I'm cold.  It's going to be a sweats, long sleeved shirt and slippers kind of day.        


One of my simple pleasures:::
Spending time with my family.  Life gets super busy and time just seems to slip away from us, so any chance we get to sit together and have a meal, even if just meeting for breakfast, is something I really enjoy.
