Monday Morning Motivations

This week, we are trying to get things back on track. With me sick and the boys gone, things are way off track. This week, I want to try to fix budget friendly, healthy meals. Thanks to http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com/40dollarmenu.htm I was able to get what I needed for this week's meals very cheaply. I also have some meat in the freezer, so that will help.

This morning, I made SIX small loaves of Old-Fashioned Low-Yeast Bread and a double batch of Pinto Beans. For breakfast, we had Pancakes, Orange Juice, and Instant Dry Milk. The boys said the milk was good, but not like store-bought.
I also have gotten the boys schoolwork going. That's slow going, but we'll get there. The housework is also slow going. I used up a lot of my meager energy cooking, so the cleaning is not happening like I want it to.

My goals for this week:

1. Get my kitchen back in order
2. Clean the Bathroom - top to bottom
3. Vacuum the entire house
4. Mop
5. Keep the laundry caught up
6. Keep the Boys' Schoolwork caught up

I have a lot to do in the next 4 1/2 weeks, to get ready for my surgery. That's not very long!

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."

Have a Blessed Week!
