Life Right Now #31

As I look outside my window: The sun is shining, the sky is clear, the leaves are different colors. Perfect fall day.

Right now I am: Finishing my breakfast of fried egg on avocado toast and coffee. I'm trying to eat a more filling breakfast instead of just a bagel.

Thinking and pondering: Which delayed craft project should I tackle first? So many to choose from.

On my bedside table: Bonk by Mary Roach; In a Witch's Wardrobe by Juliet Blackwell; The Custom of the Country by Edith Wharton

On my tv this week: We finished S2 of Supernatural, caught up on The Good Place S2, watched a few episodes of Full Frontal, and almost finished Stranger Things S2. 

Listening to: Lots of podcasts this week. I especially enjoyed The Guilty Feminist's "Weinstein Culture."

On the menu for this week:

  • Monday - Broccoli Beef
  • Tuesday - Pesto Pasta
  • Wednesday - Flank Steak with Salsa Verde
  • Thursday - Sun Dried Tomato Chicken 
  • Friday - Leftovers
  • Saturday - Spaghetti
  • Sunday - Pot Roast

On my to do list: I need to reorganize my craft area (it's a crazy mess after Christmas card making). I also need to do some more cleaning of the house, especially the living room. I got about halfway through the boys's toys cleanout last week. Need to finish that off. And tons of little tasks here and there.

Happening t his week:

  • Monday - Errand day?
  • Tuesday - Home day probably
  • Wednesday - Seven Seas Park Playdate
  • Thursday - Library and Mel's
  • Friday - Home day
  • Saturday - Stamp Club
  • Sunday - Book Club: The Ocean at the End of the Lane

What I am creating: I only have one of four stamp club projects finished for Saturday's meeting. I know at least one more design I'm going to make, just need to collect the kits. And I want to make a non-Christmas card but haven't decided on the stamp set. Plus the 3D project.

My simple pleasures: Apple cider and bourbon, caramel apple hot tea, pumpkin bread. Still in fall mode over here!

Looking around the house: Kitchen and dining are in great shape. Just need to concentrate on the living and play room.

From the camera: From the little trick or treater!
