As I look outside my window: Much nicer than last weekend. Sunshine instead of rain!
Right now I am: Prepping to go hide Easter Eggs in the yard. The Easter Bunny didn’t get to visit us last weekend due to the weather. He is coming today!
Thinking and pondering: What should we do with the back deck? We know that we will have to replace it either next summer or in two summers. We’re kicking around some ideas of how to reconfigure the layout and to be more useable. Also we want to add a cooking area to house the grill and potential a mini keg fridge.
On my bedside table: The Golden Hour by Beatriz Williams, The Deep by Rivers Solomon
On my tv this week: J and I finished Lego Masters S1 and I really don’t agree with who won at all. We also started What We Do in the Shadows S1 (hilarious!) and made progress on Making It S1.
Listening to: Chill Mix on Apple Music. Soothing music is really helping my anxiety this week.
On the menu for this week: We’re hitting three different countries for this week’s Soups and Stews selections. Really I bought the ingredients and need to use before they go bad.
Monday - Mozambique Crab Coconut Curry
Tuesday - Kulajda (Czech Soup)
Wednesday - Micronesian Chicken Coconut Curry
Thursday - Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice
Friday - Broccoli Beef
Saturday - Leftovers
Sunday - Lemon Dill Cappelini with Salmon
On my to do list: Painting the craft room, prepping schoolwork for Arthur (his last day of instruction from his teacher is May 14th), put in my Ikea order (craft room furniture!), work on the caulk on the bathtub, and bake all the things!
Happening this week: Um. Nothing per usual right now.
What I am creating: Nothing much although I do want to get back to Project Life this week. Hoping to print some photos get everything organized.
My simple pleasures: Coconut Cookies, Hot tea, freshly primed walls, front door window decals (yeah for some privacy), looking at kitchen ideas
Looking around the house: Slowly slowly we are making progress. My craft room might be ready next weekend. Art is going up on the walls. We’re still waiting on my last living room chair and the dining room chair, but those are not scheduled to come in until May. I need to work on the Arthur and Quentin’s room next: putting up art, assembling some furniture, decorating with their things.
From the camera: I finished priming my craft room! That means I get to actually paint it this week and potentially move in furniture next weekend.
