Good afternoon friends! I am just taking a quick break to say hello! I think last night and this morning I probably had the best sleep I've had in a long while. I did sleep in until 10am but once my eyes opened, I felt better than what I have in a long time. Just yesterday I was complaining about actually waking up tired but not today! :)
I have had coffee, checked emails, fed the animals, got cleaned up....make & all, and currently have The View on. I thought I would take a few minutes to say hi to you guys before starting the big tasks of the day. Really they are not so big but I have a list of things I would like to accomplish today. There is a ton of Scott and Jackson's laundry folded and laid out across my desk that is getting put away first. Why is it always more trouble to put it away than anything else? Idk....but its a job I am not too fond of. But when it's done I will feel a lot better. I have some other organizational and cleaning jobs that I also want to try to get done today too. I am lucky to be able to stay home and work on my own schedule. I totally realize it and I am grateful for how hard my husband works allowing me to be able to stay home in my comfy area.
Last night I got the planner video up. It went up much later than I wanted and I even uploaded the 1/2 edited version instead of the final cut. Thankfully I had made most of the changes and adjustments but I should have paid better attention before hitting upload on youtube. It didn't mess with the video in anyway except you see me turning the camera on and off. Besides that...the video is full of helpful calendar and planning tips. If you haven't checked it out yet, click right here to watch! I am so happy it's finally up and I hope you all check it out.
I will be back in a little while with the winner of the Plated giveaway. Thank you to everyone who entered. My the #'s I can tell many many of you would like to try it.

I have also been getting in a lot of random questions in...so I think I will get a Ask the Housewife Video up in the coming weeks too. If you have anything you want to ask me, feel free to use my contact form to send it in so I can get it answered. I always love your questions for Scott and myself and our family. I don't know when I will get it up... but send in those questions! Oh and if you have questions about freebies....I promise I am online looking. They always always slow down in the summer so hopefully they will start to pick up again soon. As soon as I find one, I always make sure I can actually get it before it gets posted. Then I share it with all of you! So don't freak out...I am still posting freebies - when I can find them!
Well...I have lots to do today. I'll be back in a bit. I hope you all are having a beautiful and blessed day
