As I look outside my window:
Right now I am:
Thinking and pondering:
On my bedside table: The Wrong Girl by R.L. Stine
On my tv this week: We completed our rewatch of the Blade series. Turns out, I never actually watched number two, so it was a completely new experience for me. I’ve also been keeping up with Bachelor in Paradise, Below Deck Med, and The Great British Baking Show (Mexican week was in very bad taste).
Listening to: The usual podcasts. My brain has not been able to take much audio input this week, so not big music binges.
On the menu for this week:
Monday - Baked Potato Soup
Tuesday - Firecracker Chicken
Wednesday - Leftovers (possibly out at Vala’s)
Thursday - Blackened Salmon
Friday - Beef Stew
Saturday - Apple Bacon Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Sunday - Buffalo Chicken Nachos
On my to do list: Now that bivalent COVID boosters have been approved for kids, I’m waiting for the local pharmacies to change their policies so I can make the kids appointments. Beyond that, I need to take care of the dentist bill, prep curriculum for November, do my biweekly coop checks, switch out my summer/winter clothes, and set up some playdates.
Happening this week:
Monday - Home Day
Tuesday - Arbor Day Farm
Wednesday - Kid Dentist Appointments; Vala’s
Thursday - Coop
Friday - Outschool Drawing Class
Saturday - Home Day
Sunday - Home Day
What I am creating: Now that the party is over, I’m catching up on my Memory Planner pages. I also would love to maybe think about Christmas cards this month, but not sure if I will have the bandwidth for that.
My simple pleasures: Hot cup of coffee, uninterrupted reading time, a cozy blanket - I’m leaning hard into the fall vibes right now.
Looking around the house: I still have patio furniture in my living room (from the party last weekend) and it may just live here for the winter. Where I usually put it in the garage is full of other stuff now. I do need to get the boys to pick up some of their piles though and their room is a disaster.
