{ Happy Homemaker Monday - 08/28/2023 }

 

 

Good morning ladies!

 

Welcome back!

 

I can't believe this is the last week of August.  I won't say I'm sad to see it go, because the heat wave we've been under has been atrocious.  I am ready for Fall and cooler temps.  

 

I want to start today, by once again sending you all a huge hug and thanking you for being here.  I miss visiting everyone, but life is busy.  

 

My stepmom has been here for a month, and she leaves on Thursday, so I'll be able to get back to a more *normal* schedule, which will include posting more often.  I want to take more pictures, welcome in the Fall season, take you along on this year's Pecan harvest, and other things as well.

 

But first, let's get through today's post and the rest of this week, shall we?

 

Have a blessed week friends. ♥♥♥

♥♥  As I look outside my window ♥♥

I used to look out my window and see a sea of green, now it's just yellow everywhere.             

 

 

♥♥  Right now I am ♥♥ 

Working on this post, and doing laundry.   

 

 

♥♥  Thinking and pondering ♥♥ 

Actually counting down the days until next weekend, and yes, I know it's only Monday morning, but I'm tired already for this week.  Anyone feel like that?   I need a break.     

♥♥ Listening to ♥♥

SIC Portuguese live tv.  

 

♥♥  How am I feeling ♥♥ 

I'm well, just tired physically, and a little mentally, but I'm ok.        

 

 

♥♥  On the breakfast plate ♥♥ 

Just coffee and toast.               

 

 

♥♥   On the lunch plate ♥♥ 

Made a Jamaican Curry for dinner last night.  There is a little leftover, but I may just have a bowl of fruit.  During the summer I always keep a big bowl with cut up fruit, in the fridge.  Everyone goes in there and has some.  I currently have watermelon, cantaloupe and grapes.       

 

 

♥♥  On the dinner plate ♥♥ 

Barbecued Ribs, Grilled Mexican Street Corn, German Potato Salad.

White shorts with yellow and black stripes, and a black v-neck top.
