As I look outside my window: It’s bright and clear outside, but pretty cold (30 degrees or so). I’m loving the light, but I would have liked another snow fall.

Right now I am: Deciding whether to make some tea bread for tomorrow for wait to make it tomorrow…

On my bedside table: The Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham; The Duke and I by Julia Quinn

On my tv this week: We’ve been enjoying S3-4 of Schitt’s Creek and S1 of Lupin.

Listening to: Mostly podcasts. I think I need to cue up The Emo Project or some other kind of music for this afternoon. Over the talk right now.

On the menu for this week: We were noticing that I tend to make at least one Tex Mex inspired recipe every week. So true! This week it’s out Friday meal.

• Monday - Sega Wat from Ethiopia (this was pushed from last week)

• Tuesday - Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon

• Wednesday - Avocado, Bruschetta Chicken

• Thursday - Leftovers

• Friday - Pork and Green Chile Stew

• Saturday - Parmesan Tilapia

• Sunday - Stuffed Pesto Shells

On my to do list: It’s appointment week! Meaning I need to make all the various appointments for myself and the kids. I seriously hate talking on the phone… I also need to get this school tuition bill straightened out. They are currently wanting to charge us for the spring semester even though that child graduated in December. Blergh! More talking on the phone.

Happening this week: Not much at all. Tuesday I need to do our grocery run and we’ll probably go to the library on Thursday.

What I am creating: Not much, although I am plugging away at my 2020 Memory Planner. I’m currently working on September’s pages. Hoping to finish through November by the end of January. Then I guess I need to work on my 2020 December Daily album so I can really start on 2021’s Memory Planner.

My simple pleasures: A good Regency romance, fun new-to-us TV shows, snuggly blankets, natural sunlight in my craft room.

Looking around the house: Like every week, there are random piles that need to be put away. I also have clothes everywhere drying as our dryer keeps tripping the breaker. Not sure if it’s an electrical problem or a dryer problem. SO clothes are everywhere drying.

From the camera: Grateful that our backyard has a slight rise to it. The boys can sled without leaving the yard!
