Good morning everyone, welcome back to my little corner in blogland.
I hope this post finds you all well. Me? I'm just ok. One minute smiling, the next bawling as we drive down the street. To be fair, today is two weeks since Marley's passing and it's all still very fresh and new, and it will take time to heal my heart and be able to move from this loss.
I'm just going through the process, but I've also firmly told myself that I can have a little cry when I absolutely need it, but life continues, I have other important things going on around me, children, a husband and a home to take care of, and so on. I'll get there, slowly, but I will. :)
Anyway, let's get on with our post for today, as always on Monday mornings, I'm a bit rushed for time, so I try to get this post up as quick as I can.
Have a blessed week friends!
xoxoxo
PS I'm pulling out one of my older Happy Homemaker Monday posts, from 2013. Nothing majorly different in the categories, just wanted a change.

Sitting on my bed, with the laptop on my lap, typing up this post and watching a video on the tv.
Thinking....
About what I need to get done today. Also, have a really important meeting on Wednesday afternoon, that is life changing for me. Hoping it all goes well.
On my reading pile....
Nothing right now, waiting for my new Fall review books to come in. I do have my own books that I can read, so will grab one of those off the shelf.
On my TV.....
Just homemaking vlogs, and a couple of documentaries. I follow a channel on Youtube called UKHistoryTube which has a ton of amazing documentaries and shows from England. Started watching The Great Plague yesterday, and also the newest Boleyn Family documentary.

In the craft basket....
Still working on my crochet blanket. Didn't pick it up the past few days, but will get back to it today.
Looking forward to this week....
My meeting on Wednesday. I'm quite nervous about it, but know God already has it all done and set.
Looking around the house....
Need to tidy up a bit, do some vacuuming and dusting as well. The morning sun is just coming up over the horizon, so I'm getting random rays of light streaming through the windows.
From the camera....
Made this amazing Pudding Cake for our weekend dessert. The recipe is already up on the blog if you wish to give it a try. It's the perfect combination of caramel pudding and chocolate cake.
On my prayer list.....
**** My brother and his family are all down with a bad cold. Unfortunately it also means that my SIL caught the same cold and is really struggling right now. Please keep her in your prayers, you know with cancer, getting a cold is not a good thing as the immune system is already pretty weak.
**** For my appointment on Wednesday. Please pray for me, I am pretty nervous about it, but it will be life changing and a huge blessing.
**** Continue praying for Afghanistan.
Bible verse, Devotional....
“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 (ESV)
