Happy Homemaker Monday 12/11/2017


14 more days until Christmas!  I'm dreadfully behind on my December meme - have to get that caught up today and do some blog planning for 2018.  I can't wait to break open my new planner on Christmas Day.

It's time for another Happy Homemaker Monday with Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.  Click here if you'd like to join in.

The weather:::

High of 58 this week, low of 38, quite a spread there.  Some wind, some rain, but no more snow (we had a little on Saturday afternoon/evening).

On my TV:::
The Crown, Season 2
When Calls the Heart, Season 4
The Durrells in Corfu on PBS

On the menu for this week:::

No idea, need to make menus and a grocery list - I think I'm going to start reporting this section after the fact, On the menu last week.

On my to-do list:::
  • Continuing on with the Holiday Grand Plan - it's Maintenance Week
  • Post Office - mailing two of Sophia's packages - ornaments I'm passing on to her, treats, and stocking stuffers
  • Make a hair appointment since I had to cancel last week's because I was sick
  • Stay home today for heating company to finish new heating system job - they are still repairing the two holes in the ceiling
  • Spouses' Club Board Christmas luncheon and ornament exchange
  • Dental appointment for overseas screening
  • Dinner with friends who are moving to Colorado
