Ooh, very excited to find fun new meme's! This is my first time! I know I am a little late so please forgive me! Here goes...
Weather in my neck of the woods: I live on the island of Guam. We are currently in the rainy season! So it is wet, grey and windy!
One of my simple pleasures: going to my inbox and finding an email from my husband (he is out of town right now!)
On my bedside table: does this mean what I am reading? Or is it what is on my table? I'll just do both, book I am reading "The Sane Woman's Guide to a Large Family". On my table...lamp, clock, binky, a burp cloth
On my tv: nothing! Tonight I will be watching the movie "New In Town"
On the menu for tonight: stroganoff, peaches, carrots, toast
On my to do list: put laundry away, clean up kitchen (again!)
New Recipe I tried last week: Chicken Cordon Bleu casserole. Very good!
In the craft basket: **big sigh** nothing
Looking forward to: a nice quiet evening
Homemaking tip of the week:I have an almost 4 week old baby, and I find myself on the couch or rocking chair a lot. With my husband being gone, I find myself sending my 4 older kids to fetch a binky, or a diaper, wipes etc. So I got a basket and filled it with: diapers, wipes, binky, burp cloth, extra outfit, extra onesie, socks, chapstick, a pen, notebook. Every night I look at what has been used and than I restock. It has made it so much easier to have everything right at my fingertips!
Favorite blog post of the week: Hmmm, I am not even sure! I will have to pay more attention next week!
Favorite photo from the last week: It is at the top!
Lesson learned from the last week: With a newborn and my husband gone I have been really tired. I mean REALLY tired. But it doesn't give me an excuse to be grumpy with my older kids. It is not their fault.
On my prayer list: always my husband and kids
Devotionals, scriptures or key verses:once again I will have to pay more attention. Right now I just keep finding that the ones that mean the most are about relying on the Lord and not myself

Cracking up over the title of your book. If you learn anything good, let me know!
Welcome to my Happy Homemaker Monday!
I'm glad to see a new face.
I enjoyed reading your post and I absolutely love the photo, how sweet.
I have been starting the post and adding bits during the week. At the moment I am stumped trying to remember.
I hope you are less busy this week!
