# 3 – Happy Homemaker Monday.

HHM-new one

The weather in my neck of the woods:
Hot and humid……..  again.

One of my simple pleasures:
Having a cup of green tea in the morning after the kids are off to school. It’ just calming.

On my bedside table:
Lamp.  everything else is in a box read to be moved.

On my TV:
TV is off.

On the menu for tonight:
There will be no cooking tonight.  Actually I think for the whole week.   I’ll be working the phones for take out!!

On my To Do List:

* pay for after school activities (it is first come/first serve).

* pick up key for new house

* work with movers today.  Packing stuff to go to P.N.G

* Exercise for 30mins

New Recipe I tried last week:
Nothing new for dinner but lots of new creations for my Green Smoothies.

In the craft basket:
no time for crafting.

Looking forward to:
MAMA MIA this weekend.

Homemaking Tip for this week:
Got nothing right now.

Favorite Blog Post of the week (mine or other):
Actually it is not a single post but a blog that I’m enjoying very much.  Her post’s are simple yet so full of life, inspiration and warmth.  Francesca I’m enjoying your blog very much.

Favorite photos from last week:

DSCF7238 I’m wondering what my husband did to warrant that look.

DSCF7239but this is the look he had for me (maybe it’s because I have the camera!!!) 

Lesson learned the past few days:  That it is okay to say no.  This is hard for me to do though.  I like to help people and sign up here and there to volunteer at school, in the community, at church etc but I forget to keep track and it can get overwhelming that my service is no longer done cheerfully.  So really it is okay to say “NO”.

Now I  just got to do it a little more often.

On my Prayer List:

Kids at school/teachers and new friends.

Husband at work and his work colleges.

Friends near and far.

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses

Be Thankful.  There is so much to be thankful for!  Even if it be something as natural as the breath we take.

Happy Week Everyone!
