Today I am joining up with Diary of a Stay At Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday!
The weather…..
It has been rainy and gloomy the last couple of days but warm. Today it is going to be rainy again.
Right now I am….
Sipping hot cocoa as I type.
Thinking….
Of my son graduating from high school in a couple of months and, if I am honest, I’m worrying about it all and his future.
On my reading pile….
The Case of the Careless Kitten by Erle Stanley Gardner, The Real James Herriot by Jim Wight, and The Two Towers by J.R.R. Tolkien
On my TV…..
I’ve been watching my favorite YouTuber, Just A Few Acres Farm, this past week to try to slow my racing mind. https://www.youtube.com/@JustaFewAcresFarm
Favorite blog post last week (mine or other)….
Something fun to share….
My daughter and I are going to learn how to paint pysanky eggs for easter this week at an event hosted by our local library.
Blog hopping (newly discovered blog)….
On the menu for this week….
I am going to try to make egg rolls in a bowl and also pulled pork this week. I hope to fry some chicken tenders with mashed potatoes too.
On my to do list….
I have to do the dishes today. Yuck. It’s my least favorite household chore. I also need to continue writing book four of my cozy mystery series.
In the craft basket….
I have watercolors and junk journal supplies in my craft basket
Looking forward to this week….
I am looking forward to the egg painting class with my daughter.
Looking around the house….
Looking around the house, I need to do some cleaning later today! And organize the school books for homeschool.
From the camera….
I didn’t get a chance to use my camera this week but I did take a couple photos on my phone of Little Miss and I painting on the back porch on Friday.
On my prayer list…..
The health of my parents and our finances.
Bible verse, Devotional….
2 Corinthians 4:8-10
“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.”

As others have mentioned, the egg painting class sounds really fun! I hope you get some photos. I also love seeing the creativity with the painting.
I, too, am a writer! I have a thriller coming out this summer (my first). I’m working on a series of historical fiction books right now. My website is in process – if I am able to get it up and running by next week I’ll share. For now, I followed you on Insta. I’m sherryjolly45. I have a second Insta which is geared toward the Bible studies I write and the historical fiction books will be mentioned here: wellversedwomen
Hope you have an amazing week!

The pysanky class sounds like fun, I love pysanky, but have never tried it myself.
There are so many amazing old crafting traditions around Easter eggs.

I am sure I will write about the eggs. I think it will be very interesting. We are lucky to have an active library for such a small area. They offer so many different programs.
