Lunch time....what is on the plate::::

I had a steak and cheese hot pocket for lunch today. Not the healthiest option but they are so yummy!

Looking around the house::::

I see the usual mess plus some extra. Another busy weekend, this time selling cookies for Girl Scouts.

On today's to do list::::

Laundry.... Two loads of towels, plus two loads of clothes need done today.

Cleaning.....

Office area and kitchen at the very least. But boy, I'm feeling unmotivated today..

Gardening... We had a hard freeze Thursday night/ Friday morning. I forgot to cover the potato and garlic plants out behind the cabana and I think they are too damaged to save. I'm going to leave them in the ground though and hope they decide to come back. Last week I also planted a pineapple top as well as 2 different black berry plants. This week I will be putting in several bulbs in the front yard as well as 2 rose bushes that have been waiting to get into the ground.

Crafting..... I am feeling really unmotivated. Maybe as the week wears on, I'll gather some steam.

Cooking.... There are some over-ripe bananas on the kitchen counter just crying to be made into banana bread. Other than that, I'm not sure what will be cooked or baked around here.

Currently reading::::

I finished the first book in the 4 book compilation Lancaster Brides by Wanda Brunstetter

On the TV today::::

I really didn't watch much tv today. Just an old episode of Emergency! Told ya I was unmotivated.

The weather outside is::::

  

Really nice today. The high is 81 low is 55. Just the way I like it. Wish it would stay this way all year. A little rain now and then is good too.
