On my TV:::

On my to do list:::
Laundry - Iron a load of tablecloths and kitchen towels.
Homeschooling - Choosing new courses for Nick.
Homemaking - The usual housework, I have dishes in the sink AGAIN, need to get them in the dishwasher. Rest of the house is pretty clean, but I do want to vacuum and dust, and finally give that new mop a try.
What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
Nothing at the moment though I've been getting the crochet itch again, so need to pull out my hooks and yarn and get cracking with something.
Looking around the house:::
It's so dark in here. The time change always messes me up, I hate losing an hour. We were getting used to getting up with the sun coming up, but now it's back to waking up in the pitch darkness. Blech!!!!
From the camera:::
Don't you just love fresh bread straight out of the oven?
Something fun to share:::
Have you ever heard of Grace O'Malley??? The Pirate Queen??? I honestly had no idea she even existed, but her story is quite fascinating. Check this out!!!
What I'm wearing today:::
Still in my nightgown, it's not even 8am. I do have to take Jasmine to work, so I'll probably thrown on a pair of jeans, a tshirt and some boots since it's raining.
One of my simple pleasures:::
Sitting in bed on a rainy afternoon, under a warm blanket, with Marley sleeping across my lap.
Bible verse, Devotional:::
Psalm 5:3 (NIV) “In the morning, LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.”
Oh that bread looks amazing!! Liking the temps you have posted! I am anxiously awaiting them to arrive here!! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI love the guy on Expedition unknown! Hilarious and you get to learn something. Try the Time Team on BBC...
ReplyDeleteFresh bread, smells heavenly. Love your simple pleasure today. Have a great week
ReplyDeleteThe time change always messes me up too! I'm really hoping this proposed bill to leave it alone passes before we have to do this again! Your menu sounds super yummy this week and so does your weather! Have a GREAT week.
ReplyDeleteAs always I love reading your blog! Your bread looks amazing! It makes me want to bake! I believe the time change really messes everyone up! I hope you have a wonderful week and enjoy the rain! I will gladly allow you to borrow ours for awhile! This has been one of the wettest winters I can remember as far as rain goes! I can not wait to see what you crochet next!
ReplyDeleteHello Beautiful Sandra!
ReplyDeleteThat bread is literally making me drool and I think I can smell it from here. ;) Enjoy your cozy rain. I think I"m still behind from daylight savings too. Although it's so nice here in the north to have it be lighter in the evenings again. Blessings on your week Hon. xoox
Fresh bread is amazing! I cannot wait until it is cool and rainy here, let's hope we both get our much awaited for weather soon!
ReplyDeleteHello, I am seeing this link up for the first time and am interested in linking up in the future. Do you have a graphic that you use for the link up each week and are the questions the same every week. Guess I'm just seeking the guidelines for it. Very enjoyable!
ReplyDeleteHi Lea, welcome to my blog :) Yes, the photo is at the top of the post, so you can use that one. I have a few and sometimes will switch the graphic up, on that day you can just grab it from here and use it on your own post. The questions are the same every week. :)
DeleteWarmer temperatures! YEAH!!! And the bread looks absolutely delicious! I can almost smell it! <3 Sorry I'm running so late this week. I actually posted last night, but forgot to post the link here. :( Have a great rest of the week and blessings! <3
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on preferring to get up when it's light out, not in the dark! Days were getting longer on their own anyway. Ugh. Seems to start earlier each year as well. Your bread looks amazing. Hope you've been having a wonderful week so far!
