The weather in my neck of the woods:
It's not too hot right now - in the 70s - high of 84 later - with storms forecasted for this afternoon/evening.
One of my simple pleasures:
Enjoying the summer days that I don't have to work - just being HOME - watching the kids play in their pool or ride a bike or throw a baseball. Remembering how carefree childhood can be sometimes - and being thankful for the blessings of a home, food, security, and freedom of living in America.
On my bedside table:
STALKER by Faye Kellerman, a pretty brainless suspense paperback. Perfect for picking up and putting down a million times as I am interrupted while trying to read! :)
On my TV:
Nothing much ... a little Food Network, an occasional TV Land episode of Andy Griffith
On the menu for tonight:
Spaghetti. My husband brought home some reduced price garlic bread from the grocery store that I need to use.
On my To Do List:
After 2 weeks of neglect, I need to clean the entire house!
But I'll probably need to take a nap or two. :)
New Recipe I tried last week:
I didn't cook much of anything last week - I worked every day - and we just tried to get by.
In the craft basket:
I don't have one :(
Looking forward to:
going to my doctor appointment tomorrow. My husband and kids are able to go with me - and since my doctor is located about 45 miles away at the Lake of the Ozarks, we will make a day of it! There are outlet malls, our closest Target, and a few other fun things to do there.
Homemaking Tip for this week:
In re-organizing my house this summer - and making room somewhere for a new baby - I am hoping to find a place for everything & trying to get everyone to keep everything in its place!! I think it would greatly reduce the clutter that tends to just lay around homeless.
Favorite Blog Post of the week (mine or other):
I have read so many blog entries but I can't really narrow it down to just one favorite this past week. 
Even when the house is a mess, it's ok to ignore it if your little girl says, "MOM! Come watch me swim!" and then get out a folding chair and sit in the sunshine and watch her splash around.
On my Prayer List:
My dad - he was diagnosed with prostate cancer (stage 2) last week.
Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
Philippians 4:11-13:
Philippians 4:11-13:
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

Church construction is exciting. Lots of prayers for that cancer to just go away! Miracle!
Have fun making room "nesting" for a little one. Remember to share with us what you do!
Have fun getting ready for the little one! I'll be praying for your Dad. Have a great week.
Hope you have a great day tomorrow and a good doctor's appointment.
I used to get so excited for mine, being able to hear the baby's heartbeat :)
I've never been to the Ozarks. I'll bet it's nice. I do live close to an outlet mall and Super Target is a favorite place.
Have fun with your family.....Love to read about impending births.
I'll say a pray for your Dad.
Prayers for your dad. Mine went through the same thing about a year and a half ago. And though he had some hard times, he is doing great now.
that was very nice of your co worker and I love food tv as well
Oh Conny, I'm sorry about your dad. :(
I know you're excited about your doctor's appointment!! Yay! :) Make sure to post all the goodies about it.
I always enjoy reading the Happy Homemaker posts...even though it's Tuesday before I read this! :)
