Good morning!
We have bright cheerful sun this morning and are at 11 degrees, but are supposed to get all the way up to 40 today! I really have enjoyed being stuck home (aside from church because Earl could drive, lol) but Maddy gets her braces on in the morning so I need to have better roads for that.
Trying to finalize my Azure order today (deadline is tomorrow) and work a little on menu planning for January. Most of my Azure order that I'll order tomorrow for delivery the 18th will actually be for January, so I think I will count most of it for January's budget as well. Also reading The Money Saving Mom's Budget book. Our library didn't have it but I requested that they get it (they have an online form where you can do that) so they did order it and I got to read it first. Apparently, the new director is making customer requests a priority when choosing new books (as long as the budget holds out) so I've requested 3-4 the past several months and they ordered all of them. Plus, I like to think I'm helping them improve their selection, lol, by suggesting stuff by "real" authors with common sense like Crystal Paine, Joel Salatin, etc... .
In other news, I won a giveaway on the Homestead Honey blog yesterday and am getting 3 sessions of personal coaching in January, plus a book suggested by the coach. Excited to do this in January to start the new year off right.
Dinner tonight is a stir fry with orange sauce, mixed veggies, water chestnuts, and served with rice.
Have a great day!
