Happy Homemaker Monday ~~ 7/7/14

Start:10:26am

The weather..... 97* for the high today.....that means a heat index over 100* I'm sure.  Looks like this week is going to be hot and humid.




Right now I am.... Sitting on the stool at the POS computer (main computer at the shop),  listening to the radio playing, the lights hum, and the AC running.  I  have my mocha right beside me.

On my Kindle... I'm almost finished reading  The Brethren (Annie's People Book #3) .  I will be looking for a new book probably later today.  I think I will look for something non-Amish this time.  Any recommendations?

On the menu today...... I think I will just do today's menu because the weekly thing may get boring with me always saying "I dunno"  LOL!  SO.....Today for breakfast Hubby and I each ate an orange, and I have my mocha.  Lunch will either be McDonalds or Braums.  Supper we are meeting friends at a steak & sushi place.  I'm not real sure about eating there, I can be rather picky when it comes to food.

On the Radio....right now Heaven by Warrent is playing

TV on my Computer..... Switched at Birth this week!  You can watch it at 7 central on ABC Family.  If you don't get ABC Family, you can watch last week's episode HERE.   I usually Watch on "vidbul" , and  I highly recommend AdBlock via Chrome Extension if you are going to watch online episodes.  I got an "eye-full" this week  AdBlock seems to do the trick and prevents pop-ups.  You can enable it and disable it as needed.  Also I found a goldmine this week.  It isn't really a NEW site, but one I have had bookmarked and not looked at or used much.  Project Free TV is amazing!  Movies and TV shows and TV series.  WOW!  I need more time now!  LOL!  Again I recommend using the AdBlock extension on Chrome to prevent the pop-ups.


What I found while surfing the net.... Besides re-discovering Project Free Tv, not much surfing this past week except looking for housing on Zillow and the realtors where we plan to move and/or commercial locations.  We are down to 5 months to keep within our goal.  I did have an idea, brain fart maybe, and went to look for a property I'd seen previously and wasn't all that interested because it was a rural property and the boy doesn't drive.  He would be isolated for the most part since it was several miles to town.  Going to Zillow and clicking on the property I *thought* was it, turns out it wasn't, but I found a property that seems perfect. Just a smidge out of our price range, BUT it's been on the market for some time so maybe they will make a deal with us.

On my to do list at home tonight....
wash the few dishes left over from eating at home yesterday
sweep floors
do some laundry

Looking forward to this week.... not sure, actually.  Nothing exciting as of yet anyway.  LOL!

Thinking and Pondering..... on the new house discovery.  Is it the right one for us?  I think I will call the realtor and see if we can make an appointment to see it next week.  Also I will post a post later this week with all out fireworks.  Mostly it's smoke bomb pictures.  But I also have the City's grand finale on video.  It was astonishing!  They really outdone themselves this year for the finale.

As I look outside the window..... The sun is shining bright as it heats things up out there!  There is a slight breeze, which helps a lot.  There are several cars parked on main street.  One BIG truck in front of our door, so I can't see much else.  LOL!  Currently no one in the shop, but we have had several customers in and out already this morning.

Looking around the house.... Oh, please, don't look!  It is a mess!  I really need to take the time to straighten things up and vacuum the floor.

From the camera....... This little guy decided he was going to church with us.  I did shoo him out the window though, so he didn't make it all the way there.


On my prayer list.....
  • My grandpa (he's 95 years old now)
  • My sister
  • My Uncle T
  • My Mom
  • Business decisions
  • quick cleaning out of the old house
  • quick selling of  our vacant lot in the country  (the realtor won't list it so we are selling it by owner)
  • getting old house cleaned out quickly
  • The house we live in now to sell quickly when we do get it put on the market
  • Finding the perfect house/location to move to
  • My Reecie Kitty

    'Brain fart' haha, I like that expression.

    We're in the process of trying to move house at the moment. I hope you find that perfect home you long for.

    My Granddad is 95 too, he's always on my mind.

    Have a great week. x

  2. I just finished reading Woman of Courage, it's similar to the Beverly Lewis books, a little heavier than I'm used to with the push for salvation, not a bad thing just main theme throughout the book.

    Good luck on the property!
