Happy Homemaker Monday

Oh my goodness....its so very chilly this morning. Its too early for it to be this cold already! I am missing summer. The start of last week, we had no plans for the weekend knowing that that the hubs would probably have to work on Saturday. He came home from work and asked if I wanted to head out to the drag races... sure! I called the youngest to see if he wanted to go with us (the oldest was working). So our week ended with races and football (Sunday).

Now onto the Happy Homemaker Monday post.


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

For Today... Sept. 9th, 2019

The weather...Its 54°.... And the high of 74° for today. Brrr, Summer has left us!

As I look outside my window...its still dark, and brrrr its chilly out there!


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

On my reading pile... 3 new books...one being a devotional New Morning Mercies by Paul David Tripp. And then the other 2 I picked up in Florida last Oct, that I forgot about... Never Unfriended by Lisa Jo Baker and Letting Go of Perfect by Amy E Speigel


Movies or Shows I watched this weekend... no movies this weekend

On my TV... Big Brother, Fear the Walking Dead, Bachelor in Paradise

On the menu for this week...

Tuesday ~ sloppy joes, tater tots and fruit
Wednesday ~ breakfast
Thursday ~ pizza

In the craft basket... working on a temperature afghan, week 36 of 52 completed, and a little more progress on the sunflower cross stitch



Happening this week:

Friday ~ take the hubs to work, groceries, errands, go pick up the hubs (I so hope his car will be back soon!)

Sunday ~ church, potluck at church, women's/men's meeting

Looking around the house... I have been putting up Fall in the house.. so there are totes everywhere



From the camera... Lots of pics....we went to the races for a last minute night out, football has started, and a few new cross stitch kits I picked up over the weekend



The jet truck, so cool!

Football has started..... bummed the Lions didn't win, but will take the tie for their first game.



cross stitch kits


for this one, I am going to do the flowers in her hair in purple


What I'm wearing today... a purple tshirt and grey leggings...but will be grabbing a sweater or one of my warm cozy robes, its chilly

One of my simple pleasures... a night out with 2 of my guys

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


On my prayer list... My husband - eye. For Jonathon as he is still in the hospital due to seizures.

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

    I really like the sunflower cross stitch! Sorry you're missing summer, though to be honest I am so glad fall is arriving! Your afghan is coming along well and the cooler weather I'm sure will give you some interesting colors in the upcoming weeks. The drag races looked fun too! Have a GREAT week.

    A high of 749? LOL, you have one too many number there but it certainly made me chuckle! That Simplicity Vintage cross stitch is gorgeous.

    I'll gladly send you some of my summer time heat in exchange for your fall temperatures. It got up to a heat index of 104 yesterday and it's already reached 100 today.

    I always love your temperature afghan and I really think I'm going to have to do one for next year.How did you break up the temperatures?

    I'm so excited for the start of football season, though the LSU game last week just about gave me heart palpitations and we won't even discuss the Boise or Saints games.

    Hope you have a great week.

    Hope you're having a blessed week.

    Sounds like it was a very fun end to your week. Your family is so adorable. 😊
    And you know I adore your craft projects. The cross stitch is looking SO beautiful!! And the new one with the flowers in the hair - just wow. That will be a gorgeous one! You're getting me even more in Fall mode with your decorating. That's on the agenda this weekend over here for me.
