Happy Homemaker Monday

When a good Monday morning turns bad real quick... you know it’s going to be a long day! Lici decided it was playtime with a baby skunk..... John had just left for work... so a panic call - several times because he didn’t answer the first few times - asking him to please turn around and come help me get the dog away from the skunk and clean her up so I can punch in for work on time! We now have one smelly dog we bathed her once with a solution so she’s not as stinky but she’s going to need another bath and one dead skunk that’s now in the trashcan! Oy vey!

So now let's get on with the HHM post!

I am linking up with Diary of a Stay at Home Mom. Head on over to find some other great bloggers.

The weather...Its 73°.... And the high of 77° for today...and rain later today

As I look outside my window...The sky is full of clouds and you can see the pink tinge of the sunrise

On my bedside table... my alarm clock, Kindle, iPad and a journal

On my reading pile... Never Play Dead by Tomi Lahren - I love her boldness.

Movies or Shows I watched this weekend... Netflix - Beneath the Leaves and Backdraft 2.... and on the tv with the hubs we watched Medallion with Jackie Chan

In the craft basket... working on a temperature afghan, week 30 of 52 completed -still in the gold. Still working on the snowflake cross stitch, making progress

Looking around the house... I did lots of straightening up last night, so its looking pretty good in here!

From the camera... I visited with my sister inlaw, and her grandson, my great nephew, was there. He's getting so big!

I framed my Love is Books cross stitch, and have it now displayed.... it turned out just as I had it pictured in my head! I love it!!!

My Lici girl... .she wore herself out chasing a bunny in the backyard (this was last week.. not today after her incident with the skunk.... )

I snapped this of the hubs and Lici... this was after we got home from his eye appt... it was not a good news day concerning his eye... so sitting and petting the pup makes you feel a little better

What I'm wearing today... green tshirt and black leggings

One of my simple pleasures... enjoying a ice cream cone after a long hot walk with the pup

A favorite Bible verse, devotion or quote for today...

On my prayer list... My husband. We were hoping for better news at the eye doctor this past week, only to hear that the swelling is back in the eye, and there is now a slight occlusion starting in his right eye as well.

In closing...Thank you for stopping by. I hope your week ahead is filled with lots of blessings!
