On my bedside table: Next Year in Havana by Chanel Cleeton; 99 Percent Mine by Sally Thorne

On my TV: Continuing this season of Superstore and Veep and moving slowly through Game of Thrones S1. We finished Norsemen S1 (hilarious but very dark).

Listening to: I went back and started listening to Binge Mode’s recaps of Game of Thrones episodes. Only four episodes in as that’s what we watched this week, but I really enjoy their commentary about the series.

On the menu:

Monday - Maple Bourbon Pecan Chicken
Tuesday - Pot Roast
Wednesday - Leftovers
Thursday - Ranch Cheddar Chicken
Friday - Spicy Thai Noodles
Saturday - Buffalo Chicken Sliders
Sunday - Sausage, Potato, Spinach Soup

On my to do list: I’m certain lots of things, but my list has gotten ridiculous looking. Need to spend some time making a new one today to get my week in order.

Happening this week: We have three Romp n Roll classes scheduled this week. Plus MPS open enrollment and Tinkergarten. I’m not looking forward to it, but I do have a dentist appointment this week.

What I am creating: Nothing much at all. My creative drive has stalled out this past week. Hoping to get back into it soon…

My simple pleasures: Break and bake cookies; the sound of the rain as I fall asleep.

What I’m planning: Putting the last touches of our summer road trip. I’ve got all the activities listed and times and distances. Now I’m working on booking hotels and finding food places along the way. Getting excited!

Looking around the house: The dining room needs to be swept and Swiffered badly. Guess what I’m doing today…

Looking forward to: Our trip to Fort Wayne. We’re going to hit up the zoo and on the return, we’re going to stop in Chicago at Shedd Aquarium.

From the camera: Q enjoying some Play-doh time. Enjoy it while you can as I don’t allow it in the house!
