Happy Homemaker Monday: October 12, 2026

 Good morning, y'all. I'm actually on top of things this morning. 


The weather: Cool mornings, warm to hot afternoons. Typical Autumn in Appalachia. 

As I look outside my window: It's light out, but still cloudy and misty. I did see a bit of sun on my run earlier, but it's all hidden behind clouds now. 

Right now, I am: Answering a text from the bed and breakfast, typing up this post and listening to music. 

Thinking and pondering: About boundaries. For a very long time, I didn't have any, and let people walk all over me...now that I've put boundaries into place, a lot of people are upset their access to me is limited or gone completely. But, such is life. 

How I am feeling: Good. Sturdy. Hopeful.

On the breakfast plate: A ham sandwich and a cup of coffee. Breakfast of champions, hehe.

On the lunch plate: I think I'm going out with a friend for lunch, but I will be sure to make wise decisions. 

On the dinner plate: Potato soup. 

What I'm wearing: Running clothes, which for me consist of legging shorts and a scrubby hoodie. 

On my reading pile: Still everything, but I did manage to read some more in National Dish when I was at Veteran's Affairs last week. 

On my TV this week: Ella and I finished "Your Turn to Kill" (Netflix) and started "Below" (also Netflix) and also "Until the T-shirt Dries" (our current undubbed Japanese show, also Netflix). British Baking Show and Hell's Kitchen and Tokyo Revengers (all of which make me ridiculously happy) 

On the menu: The aforementioned potato soup, homemade pizza, cube steak, meatball stew. It's all written in my bullet journal, but there's not really an order to it. 

Looking around the house: We're switching seasonal clothes so things are in a bit of upheaval. 

To-do list for the week: Work, work, work. Buy tickets for Rob-Con. Attend Rob-Con (t's a comic convention, and this is Goose's first year going). Do some things for the bed and breakfast. Start digging tubers. 

What I am creating: A better me. A better body to house my soul. The tuber master list (which I am determined to finish before December so I can start my alleged off season) 

Something fun to share: I don't know that it's necessarily fun, but I've started writing down deep thoughts and realizing where I've been self-sabotaging and things I need to let go of...and I think it's done me a lot of good. I understand myself a lot more. 

From the camera: 


The text on the mug means "good morning" in Polish,  my native language. 

Devotional, etc: Can all you ladies please pray for my best friend Tina? God knows the need, but other than my kids, I love her more than anything in this world. Thank you all so much. Also, I underlined this verse in my Bible today. 


Have an amazing week!

  1. Prayer sent up for your friend. Oh, that mug looks so fun! And it reminds me of my something fun to share section, so thank you. Going to go update it right now. Hope you have a wonderful week!
