Happy Homemaker Monday for 7/5/2021 (only 2 days late)
 |
| I'm linking up with Sandra for Happy Homemaker |
It's been the strangest couple of weeks. I spent about 10 days Up North taking care of my sweetheart after his second hip surgery. Then came home to find out my dad had to have a heart procedure due to the atrial fibrillation that we both contracted after COVID. Then my sister ... Well let's just say that she really made a mess of things. Had to take her to urgent care after a fall. Then last week I ended up in the hospital with chest pains. But GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME.
The weather:::
It's been HOT and HUMID. But a cool front is coming through. I'm enjoying the sunshine - the humidity, not so much.
On my reading pile:::
I finished the cutest homemaking book. I really enjoyed it and would love to buy a hard copy for my library.

| The Art Of Homemaking by Alison May |
I also finished "Becoming the Woman God Wants Me to Be: A 90-Day Guide to Living the Proverbs 31 Lifestyle" by Donna Partow This was also a good study. I enjoyed it.
I also have been going through a bunch of vegan and heart-healthy cookbooks. I'm trying to be MOSTLY plant based. Still chicken breast, lean turkey and fish for the time being a few times per week. Have to take extra care of the ticker thanks go COVID.
Right now I am reading Mary Kubica's "The Good Girl"
On my TV:::
I am just finishing up the K-Drama "Mouse" with my bestie in NH. It is very much an edge-of-your-seat thriller. Really good if you like that kinda thing!
Days of Our Lives
YouTube - Mostly vegan vloggers as I TRY to switch over to more plant-based eating
The Chosen - I still have several episodes of season 2 to finish up! Amazing!
On the menu for this week:::

Friday - Whole wheat penne with fresh tomato and basil sauce w/ side of veggies

What I am creating:::
I have a very dear friend in Florida who sent me the SWEETEST package of goodies! Inside was a bunch of lovely paper crafting supplies! I plan to start a new junk journal soon. Hopefully I'll have some pictures for you next week!
Looking around the house:::
I feel like there are always dishes. I despise dishes! I haven't had a dishwasher in years and years and dishes remain my nemesis! Floors need to be swept and mopped
From the camera:::
My peacock planter on my balcony
On my prayer list:::
*My Dad. He was supposed to have a catheterization yesterday but they found that he has no blockages! Praise Jesus! But in 2 weeks he will need a cardioversion - which is shocking his heart back into rhythm.
*My sweetheart as he recovers from his hip replacement.
*Dorcus, my sponsored child and her family and village.
*Family and friends
Bible verse, Devotional:::
I'm still reading in 2nd Kings. I got a little bit behind with all that is going on.
I'll be starting a new Bible Study tonight that I found for free on Kindle Unlimited, it's "Proverbs 31 Woman". More on that next week!
