Happy Homemaker 2020-02-10

Another short work week as I took Friday off - this time it was a snowstorm.  My husband did go in to work but he was working late so I would've had to take the bus home and did not feel like doing 2 hours in the snowstorm. It was really yucky outside with the snow and wind.  But when you're inside looking out and don't have to go out in it, it's not so bad :)

We babysat our grandchild (and the dog) Saturday afternoon and he slept over.  He had a good night from 9:30 to 4:30, then a little milk and back to sleep until 7:30.  My son and daughter-in-law came over for lunch on Sunday and they all left after supper.

Sunday night we joined 2 of my sisters-in-law for supper at the local pizza joint.

Let's join Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom .

We had alot of snow Thursday and mostly on Friday with lots of wind, a real snowstorm!  I think they said around 40cm.
This morning is nice and balmy.

How I am feeling this morning
Feeling fine - had a good night's sleep (with hot flashes).  Did some exercises this morning so not as crick-cracking :)

On my mind
Do I continue with deep cleaning or take a day's rest? humm....

On the breakfast plate
2 Eggo waffles with butter and maple syrup.  Half a glass of Kombucha and a cup of green tea.
