As I look outside my window: Grey and rainy. It's been raining for three days now. As much as I love falling asleep to the rain, I think I'm ready for the sunshine to reappear.

Right now I am: Drinking some coffee and eating some breakfast while Arthur watches Mighty Machines.

Thinking and pondering: I need a better plan for this week. The lack of activities could result in too much tv and couch time. Time to pull out my daily pages...

On my bedside table: Almost finished with A Dance with Dragons. From there, I'm planning to read Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, Failure is Impossible by Lynn Sherr, and Let’s Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson (reread for book club in April)

On my tv this week: J and I caught up with Limitless and The Magicians. Holy cow! Those two shows are killing me (in a good way). I also started watching The Property Brothers S3 during the day.

Listening to: Nothing much this week. A few podcasts here and there, but nothing that exciting.

On the menu for this week: A light menu as we are trying to cut the grocery budget and use the food already in the kitchen.

• Monday - Sausage Crescent Roll, Eggs, Muffins, Oatmeal
• Tuesday - Dijon Brown Sugar Flank Steak, Veggies, Rolls
• Wednesday - Leftovers
• Thursday - Fish, probably Parmesan Tilapia
• Friday - Frozen meal, probably Tex Mex Chicken
• Saturday - Garlic Ranch Chicken Pizza
• Sunday - Pulled Pork Sandwiches

On my to do list: Buy and construct the photo booth frame. Finish a few blog posts. Send out April birthday cards. Send out sprinkle invites. Meal plan for the rest of April.

Happening this week: Super light week. After last week's crazy activities, it will be nice to step back and get a handle on house stuff and future planning.

• Monday - Maybe the park and errands
• Tuesday - Maybe the library
• Wednesday - Spring Social Prep Meeting
• Thursday - Maybe San Francisco Walk with Fremont ladies
• Friday - Nothing, probably house chores
• Saturday - Spring Social!!!!
• Sunday - Happiness Project Check-in

What I am creating: A few design team cards, prepping for Week in the Life in May, Catching up Arthur and twins' PL albums, Sprinkle cards and banners (for May)

My simple pleasures: Rainy nights to fall asleep, granola, grocery deals, snuggly toddlers

Looking around the house: How can Arthur trash the playroom and living room in under 10 minutes? This place is a disaster.

From the camera: Playing with the frogs.
