It isn’t even Halloween yet (my favorite holiday) and I’m already thinking of Thanksgiving. I’m anxious to see our families, and cook for everybody too.

I have a lot to get done though… There are  lots of little projects to be done around the house before guests arrive. I also need to get a budget set for the meals, and make a menu too.

I’ve been practicing Turkey dinners for the last few months, just to see how the oven cooks them. My hubby doesn’t seem to mind though, he likes the extra turkeys.

Today it really feels like Autumn has finally arrived, and I can’t wait for Halloween and Thanksgiving.

Last week was a rough week. I had a compound headache for five days, and I fell so far behind. Last night my headache finally left, and this morning I’m feeling so much better.

I have a lot to catch up on though… The laundry got away from me, the dishes got away from me, and the kids ate everything in sight. I’ve been catching up this morning. I’ve made a pretty good dent in the dishes, and we have already been to the store too.

This afternoon I’m making Cinnamon Rolls, and Brownies too. I’ve got to get some homemade snacks stocked back up for the kiddos.

I hope this week goes a bit better than last week…

Maybe I’m just optimistic on Monday’s, but I love the start of a new week. Last week was challenging, the kids had colds, and so did I. It seemed to be a throw-away week where I just couldn’t get ahead.

This week the kids are feeling better, and so am I. Agnes and I got at it early today, and we finished all of the weekly errands this morning. I’ve got the house stocked back up, and I’m almost caught up with all of the dishes from the weekend too.

I’ll be making laundry powder, and putting away all of the laundry from last week. I’ll be baking a lot this week too. I always look forward to that though.

I can’t believe that tomorrow is October, seriously September flew by way too fast. Well I had better get back to it. Happy Monday to you!

One is well, and well the other one is not. Thade is back to school today, and feeling so much better. Agnes is still miserable. We made it to the store this morning to restock the house, and then she threw a gigantic tantrum when we got back home. It has been a long, and loud morning.

My stick-vac also went kaput yesterday, so I’m looking for a new one. My last one didn’t make it through a year. I hope we can find something quick, the living-room is quite a mess.

I should probably get back to it. Off to the kitchen I go.

The last few days the weather has been rainy, cloudy, and cool. It is a great preview of Autumn weather in KS. I have loved it too. I have been waiting for Autumn’s arrival all Summer.

Agnes hasn’t been to happy about the weather change… She prefers her days sunny.

I’m still catching up from the weekend. Today I’m baking some pizza rolls for the boys, and washing dishes and laundry too. I hope to sneak in a little crochet this afternoon once the chores are done for the day.
