HAPPY HOMEMAKER & MENU PLAN MONDAY

I had a horribly busy week between the house projects and my aunt's surgery and I think I overdid. Even yesterday morning I woke up pretty good, but ended up sick by the afternoon.  I'm still feeling a bit under the weather today, but will try to get a few things done anyway.
WEATHER OUTSIDE
It's too warm for February and we're having cloudy days with a big storm on the way.

TO DO FOR THE WEEK
It looks like we'll finish the master bathroom this week and be well under way to completing the spare bathroom.  I'm hoping to also have the living room painted by the weekend.

SUCCESSFUL RECIPES and their links FROM LAST WEEK
ON MY MIND
I've been feeling so overwhelmed at ALL there still is to do here.  My logical mind KNOWS we are making progress, but I'm just so tired that some days it stills seems insurmountable.  That said, here are a few pictures of what we did get accomplished this week.
Playing with the pattern.
ALL glued down and setting up!
We STILL don't know what ALL those holes in the wall were for, but hubby did get the thermostat moved to the living room side of the wall and got the piece of drywall cut out and replaced.  I will get it patched and get this alcove painted this week.

THINGS THAT ARE MAKING ME HAPPY
  • Pretty Sunsets
  • Long walks with the dog
  • Small project completions
FAVORITE PHOTO FROM THE CAMERA
I ordered this pillow from a friend this weekend that sells Thirty-One products.

  2. Those holes make me think of a missing intercom system. A childhood friend had an intercom system in their home and it was about that size. I think it looks like you are making lots of progress. Hope you have a wonderful week!

    1. I wish it had been an intercom LOL there were literally no wires on the inside and never had been so it will remain a mystery. Have a great week.

    1. Thank you I am feeling better. We hired someone yesterday to take over one of the projects that requires ladders and 20 foot ceilings that has been stressing us both out which has relieved a lot of the pressure!
