Happy Homemaker Monday for April 17th
Welcome to this week's Happy Homemaker Monday. I am linking up with Sandra at Diary of a SAHM.
On my reading pile::: Still reading Gone with the Wind. It will be a few more weeks since I only read a little bit every day. Finished "Two Days Gone" by Randall Silvis. I took a temporary diversion from "Firefly Lane" because I got caught up in this murder mystery. It happens! lol It's different from what I normally read, but it was fast-paced, exciting, and I didn't figure it out until close to the end. 4/5
I also received an ARC copy from Bethany Books of "The Chapel Car Bride" by Judith Miller, which I will be starting this week.
Movies or Shows I watched this weekend::: Started a new binge-watch, "Heartland". Watched the Casey Anthony Documentary. Both sad and infuriating. I remember my mom watching the actual case (or following it on the news?) when it occurred.
On my TV:::
Heartland
When Calls the Heart
Empire
Chicago Fire
YouTube videos
The Outsiders (with Emily)
Maybe 13 Reasons with Jennah

Looking around the house::: Cluttered. Busy cooking all weekend so got behind on the housework! Will get the girls on it tomorrow :)
What I'm wearing today::: Writing this Saturday night, wearing a black sundress. It got up to 84 today in Detroit!
One of my simple pleasures::: Sitting in the dark reading my Kindle. Love it.
Bible verse, Devotional:::
Your weather sounds nice to me. Have you decided if you will watch 13 reasons why yet? I just finished it with my daughter who read the book, It is a very heavy and hard to watch show. my daughter did not watch 3 scenes, and I had to make myself watch. Let me know if you watch and what you think. Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteMy 20-year-old daughter and possibly my 17-year-old daughter will most likely watch with me. The 20yo has already read all about it and has planned not to watch a few parts. (Neither have read the book) I will definitely update you once we watch. We'll probably start it soon.
DeleteHope you have an amazing Birthday! Your menu sounds absolutely amazing! I too love to read in the dark to the glow of my kindle... Thanks for sharing a glimpse of your week! Blessings...
ReplyDeleteThank you! I used to use booklights eons ago - but they never worked quite right! I <3 my Kindle!
DeleteEveryone seems to be watch 13 Reasons Why, I watched one episode and haven't finished yet, not sure if I will. Let me know if you watch it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week Sherry :)
After reading some more mom reviews on 13 Reasons Why - I am not sure if we'll end up watching it. Jennah is very sensitive to a lot of things and I am not sure it is the best show for her to watch. I've decided to put it on hold for now!
