Monday....

I have had a very productive day. Which is very amazing to even myself, since I woke up so TIRED today. I've....

  • washed & dried 2 loads of laundry (including our sheets),
  • scrubbed the whole bathroom,
  • changed around some items on our dressers,
  • scooped the cat box,
  • put the dog back outside since it warmed up so nice,
  • vacuumed the whole house,
  • washed dishes twice,
  • and, I've even had Colton all day.

This evening we are heading over to Darren & Scottie's for supper. Darren says he's making "breakfast" for supper. I am hoping to remember my camera to get some photo's of their house.

A great weekend.

Saturday; Scott worked of course. I was home all day, doing basically nothing. At 3:30 I met him @ his work, and we left for the P.A. Farm Show. It was free for us. We drove his boss' truck, & free admission. I even left with a free poinsettia that fills my kitchen table. Then his boss took us out for supper @ KFC. We were home by 8:30, settled in and rented a movie off of PPV.

Sunday (today); We slept in a little, 8:00. I did my normal morning routine, then I relaxed and watched a Lifetime movie. By 10:30 we were ready and out the door, heading to a local auction. We got there and they weren't letting anyone in yet, so we killed time by going out for an early lunch. Our favorite little pizza place had just opened for the day. Cheeseburgers & large fries was our lunch. We stopped and picked up a Sunday paper (gotta have those coupons), by then they had opened the doors @ the auction. There was SOOOOO much stuff. Everywhere you looked, STUFF. We spent a little more than what we had budgeted, but there was a few things that we can resell, and make our money back plus some. My "prize" for the night is an antique oil lamp. BEAUtiful!!!! and for only $11.00. So anyhow, we were then invited to Tony & Nikki's for supper. Oh my, let me just tell you.... that girl can COOK. She made stuffed shells. YUMMY.... We had a great visit with them.

Now we are home, relaxing, and watching football. Back to the grind tomorrow. I will have Colton all day, no school.... Hoping to go to Scottie & Darren's for supper... I have to call them...

So, I'm off for now... Make it a great week. Until next time.... Thanks for reading....

Doesn't this just look.....


....SCRUMPTIOUS....


Another pot of soup...

This cold winter weather has me craving soup all the time. Yesterday I made homemade tomato soup. It was okay, but needs a little tweaking. I'll master it next time. Today is beef veggie simmering on the stove. I've been "stealing" spoonfuls every time I walk past, LOL.

This week has been nicely productive for myself. Monday of course I tore the house apart and put it all back together again. Yesterday I finished the office. Finally for the 1st time since we've moved in, it is in order. Scott hung my shelves up, so I was able to display my Stephen King books the way I wanted to. We've had some great meals this week....
  • Tuesday: Baked Chicken Breast, with baked potatoes & corn...
  • Wednesday: Spaghetti & Meatballs & homemade bread (sauce & meatballs were both homemade)
  • Thursday: Homemade Tomato soup & Toasted Cheese
YUMMY...

I am hoping to get some photo's uploaded here soon. Blogspot has been giving me issues with that.

So anyhow, it's Friday... Have a great weekend....

House is done..

Yesterday I worked hard at getting this whole house done. It's so nice now. No longer do I feel like the walls are closing in. I do have a few little things to finish in the office, but I'm waiting on Scott to hang another shelf.

So, since I did all that work yesterday I had nothing to do today. 1 load of laundry, a few dishes, made egg salad. I have chicken breast, baked potatoes, & corn going for supper. On a down side I have one of the biggest headaches I've had in awhile. Not sure why.

While supper is finishing Scott is off to feed his deer & bring in the memory card out of his trail camera. He loves to do that, and to be honest, I really enjoy riding out there with him & seeing all the photo's when we get back.

Tonight I think I'll settle in and read.
