{ Happy Homemaker Monday - 09/20/2021 }

Good morning everyone, welcome back to my little corner of the world.  I hope you've had a restful weekend and I pray for a blessed week ahead for each, and every single one of you.  

 

This weekend flew by for me, literally blinked and it's Monday again.  I am praying for a blessed week for us as well, we have a lot going on.  Still trying to get my MIL's house sold, and we've had problem after problem.  It's frustrating but we've left it in God's hands and are confident He will work it all out, for our good.  

 

Let's get going, I don't have much time this morning before I need to head out. 

 

 

Breakfast time....what is on the plate this morning::::
Just a cup of coffee with vanilla creamer, and then I'll have some toast with apple butter, in about 30 minutes.     

 

Looking around the house::::
We are definitely heading into Fall, the mornings are taking longer to get brighter.  It is still quite dark in the house.  The mornings are crisper, so I've been opening the windows to let in the fresh air.  

 

 
On today's to do list::::

Clean house, especially wash big windows in living room and den.

Clean pool, working on getting it completely clean so we can winterize it.

Currently reading::::
I am now in 1 Corinthians in the Bible

Kicking Ass in a Corset, for a book review coming up.  

 

On the TV this week::::

Homemaking Vlogs

The weather outside is::::
Really hoping for cooler weather, but today, we are expecting a high of 104.  I don't want it, I really don't want it.

If I have a few minutes to myself, I will::::
Definitely crochet, been wanting to carry on with my blanket and haven't had a chance. 

New recipe I tried, or want to try this week::::
I want to make a dessert this week, not sure which, but it will be a new one and I'll share with you once it's on the food blog. 

 

One of my simple pleasures::::
Watching history documentaries

 

 

Something fun to share::::

Short but really sweet video welcoming in Autumn.  This is from the Hand and Harvest channel, on Youtube.

 

 

 

Favorite photo from the camera::::

I have a post coming up later, just little snippets of our weekend, and this is one of the photos I'll be sharing.  I've now processed all our pumpkins, except for one that is still on the vine and should be ready this week. 

 

 

Praying for::::
♥♥  My sister in law, as she continues her treatments.  Want to give a quick praise report though.   She had an ultrasound on Thursday to check on the tumor in her breast, and it has shrunk considerably, it is only a 1cm now, and the lymph nodes that were affected before have all disappeared too.  Hallelujah, praise God!   Thank you all for the prayers. 

♥♥  Jasmine has decided to push through her anxiety and start driving lessons.  It is huge for her, because she is terrified of driving, but we have found a school locally that is very good and they deal with situations like this all the time.  Please keep her in your prayers. 

♥♥  Still praying for our country and the craziness that we see going on, not just here in the States, but all over the world.  The spiritual warfare rages on, and the whole world is fighting for it's freedom.
