~~It's Monday~~



(My 2011 garden)

Outside my window~  Humid but comfortably warm.  It is supposed to be the same all week.  Mid seventies with occasional thunder showers in the evenings.

I am thankful for~  I am thankful the Lord meets my needs.  I am thankful for my health.  I am thankful for my family.

From the learning room~  We've been working on spelling, reading, counting money, counting by 25's.  I've cleaned and organized our school room area a bit.  I still have some old decorations to pull down.

My studies are coming along slowly.  I'm almost done reading the book of Matthew.  I am constantly amazed at the the things the Lord is bringing to my attention.  I am waiting to study further on some things I've been reading.

From the kitchen~ Our Resurrection Dinner was great.  We had a wonderful baked Ham, homemade scalloped potatoes, green beans with carrots, fruit salad, dinner rolls and apple cobbler with ice cream. Bachelor David came over and shared eating duties with us.

(that's not my ham, but mine looked similar to this one)

Monday~ Ham and egg omelet, leftover scalloped potatoes with toast

Tuesday~  Salmon Patties, Mashed Potatoes, Garlic Broccoli

Wednesday~  Grilled Chicken pieces with Green Salad

Thursday~  Easy Taco's

Friday~  Homemade Pizza Night (Daddy's at work)

Saturday~  Family Date Night (going out?)

Sunday~  Tereaki Meatballs with brown rice, garlic snow peas,  fruit salad

  I am wearing~   Tan capri's, orange tee shirt.  I trimmed my hair this morning and took a picture of it for you.  My hair is almost completley free of color now.  I am very salt and pepper in front.  I still have a bit of brown in the back by my neckline.  I may try to take a better picture later in the week of my salt and pepper hair.


I am creating~  I am plum wore out from my week of gardening.  I am not sore anymore.  I know the earth worms like what we have done.  I am waiting for the nursery to carry some more bedding plants such as; Lobelia and Allysum, when those come in, I will make my hanging baskets and add a few more flowers to the flower beds.
 




My back patio. . . will soon to be pretty with hanging baskets, flowerpots and such.

I am thinking~ About far away family this week.  Thinking about summer.  Thinking about moving.

  I am reading/watching~  Road to Avonlea  (I love all the period costumes!)




Favorite Things~  baby soap smell

bubblegum ice cream


lemonade



Homemade Lemon Curd~ YUM!!



Around the house~  The windows are open blowing in fresh air.  My sheets are being washed.  The rugs need vacuuming.  Kitchen is clean.  Thinking about dinner. I may put on some soothing music to enjoy.   Thinking about having toast with lemon curd for dinner!

  I am praying~   Praying for the desires of my heart~ there are many.

"Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." 
Psalms 37:4
 
Something to share~

Boy's toy's attacking baby toys!
 
 

Have a great weekend Friends!

  1. Looks like my ham too    I always love to read your Mon. posts to see what is for dinner this week.  I think you hair looks so good.  I don't see much salt and pepper.  I am afraid if I let mine grow out, it would be all gray.  I have been coloring it since my daughter got married 20 yr. ago.  Then I just had one gray patch in the front.
