Happy Homemaker Monday – May 13, 2013

May 13, 2013 by Debbie Leave a Comment

I hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing weekend and felt loved and appreciated yesterday for Mother’s Day. I ended up being ill most of the weekend (trying to fight off a migraine), but I felt better Sunday afternoon. We spent some time with my husband’s family and then had dinner out at Montana’s.

The weather …

Has been beautiful. Highs of 26C throughout the weekend. It will be cooling down later in the week.

Right now I am …

Enjoying the quiet as Miss C has just gone down for her nap.

Thinking …

That I have quite a mess to clean up from this weekend. I did not do much housework and the girls spread their toys across the house!

On my reading pile …

On the menu for this week …

  • Monday: Butter chicken with rice
  • Tuesday: Cheesy pasta bake
  • Wednesday: Tacos
  • Thursday: Sweet and sour chicken with rice
  • Friday: Pizza with green salad
  • Saturday: Barbecued steaks with baked potatoes and corn
  • Sunday: Roast pork loin with trimmings

On my to do list:

  • Laundry
  • Clean my fridge
  • Write grocery list
  • Change bed linens
  • Housework

What I am creating this week …

I picked up some wool while I was in Michaels recently and I will be attempting to make dryer balls from it.

Looking forward to this week …

The long weekend (to celebrate Victoria Day). We’re likely to be outside enjoying the weather. Maybe we’ll take a trip down to the river or to the zoo.

Looking around the house …

Toys to be picked up, laundry mountain to conquer, listening to the birds singing outside.

From the camera …
