On the breakfast plate this morning:::
Back to work so it's coffee and a cookie that's more like a flat muffin - pumpkin, walnut, and chocolate chip, amazing!
Right now I am:::
Headed to the bus and thankful it is not raining. Judging by the weather forecast, I will NOT be saying this on Friday.
On my bedside table:::
My water, diffuser, Renew lotion, and a coconut/jasmine candle, not to burn, just for the scent.
On my reading pile:::
Still reading Dragonfly by Leila Meacham and loving it.
Movies or Shows I watched this weekend:::
The final of Season 10 of the Great British Baking Show. How long do we have to wait for the next season? I've moved over to another British food show, The Big Family Cooking Showdown.
On my TV this week:::
TV:
The King on Netflix.
You Tube:
December Daily
Caroline (Mrs. M)
Pretty Neat Living
On the menu for this week:::
No real menu planning this week - there's a variety of things in the fridge so it will be a matter of what looks good when I get home.
On my to do list:::
Housework:::It's the family room this week on the Holiday Grand Plan.
Bedroom:::No change. Moved on from looking for lamp shades to looking for new lamps. We need something different.
Kitchen:::Wipe counters, top up the Brita - did my weekly dishwasher load, run, and unload on Friday night/Saturday morning.
Ordered some supplies for this weekend (see Looking forward to below) that I couldn't find at my local craft stores so I'll be expecting packages this week.
What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating:::
The office is 95% complete. I just need to finish emptying a few totes and move the empties to the garage.
Looking forward to:::
The December Daily Online Prep Day, 12 hours of live videos with lots of fun ideas for December Daily.
Looking around the house:::
Still tidy.
From the camera:::
I missed Vic this weekend for our usual selfie shot in front of the snowman at the holiday fair but I had fun with a couple of friends browsing through the fair, the shops downtown, and then going to lunch.
Work uniform - pants, shirt, cardigan.
Thinking about:::
The menu for my tea. I talked to the catering department at my local gourmet grocery store - they make an amazing curried chicken salad but it has apples in it and I just don't care for it being prepared that way. They said they would be happy to leave them out.
Bible verse, Devotional, prayers:::
"We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives" - John F. Kennedy
Prayers for family and friends with health and financial challenges.
Enjoy your week, Pamela!
ReplyDeleteYour week is off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you!
Pamela - would love to see pics of what your house is looking like, you have worked so hard to make it 'home'. Love the pic with you and the snowman. TTYL
ReplyDeleteI plan to have photos up in January - there are a few things Vic needs to finish off when he comes home and a few things he needs to move around and then we'll be ready for the grand reveal!
DeleteI am intrigued by your Youtube selections... I iwll ahve to check them out!! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteCaroline (Mrs M) is a lifestyle blogger from the UK - very dry sense of humor at times, love her. She's an Ebay reseller so she'll have hauls of things she's picked up, she and her husband are doing some remodeling in their home so there's some of that, and she does a lot of shop with me videos from local shopping as well as plus-size over 50s fashion reviews and over 50s beauty tips. Pretty Neat Living is an organization guru and has great favorites videos. She has two littles so not in my age bracket but I enjoy watching her videos. She's a December Daily crafter too.
DeleteHave a good week!
ReplyDeleteLove the pic with the snowman~! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteAccckkkk! Christmas is NEXT MONTH! Way to throw me into panic mode. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Pamela, thank you for your kind comment. Regarding the “traffic source” you can go to your blogger dashboard and click on stats. There are links to places where your readers come from. The traffic source is one such link. The more I check into it the more it seems that similar sites are always looking for other sites to connect to and it is more auto magic than actual visitors but I still don’t like it myself. I do not want to lose my blogging friends at all but want to limit non bloggers access. Thanks again. I love your prime purchases post!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your post, Pamela, and love the photo of you and the snowman! When is your tea? I hope your week is going well! Blessings! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your home photos, I can just imagine how gorgeous your home will be :)
ReplyDeleteHope Vic will be home soon. Have a wonderful rest of the week, friend xoxo
Hello Pamela!! Hope you're having a lovely week so far. I'm getting excited to think about how I want to decorate around here for the holidays. Looking forward to seeing how your house looks all dolled up too!
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed weekend ahead. xoxo
I'm running sooooo late this week, forgive me. I enjoyed reading your post. I hope you had a great week and I'll be back tomorrow!
