Happy Homemaker 2024-02-05

 Good morning February

Last week I ended up going to the doctor for my eyes.  My eye infection was getting worse.  He told me the medication I got at the pharmacy was not strong enough for what I had.  So now I have antibiotic drops for 7 days, started on it last Wednesday and it is just starting to feel better.

Grandchildren came for supper on Thursday and Friday.  Friday evening dh, ds and the granchildren went to skating rink.  There was music, toasts, marshmallows and hot chocolate.  They spent more time sliding than skating.  I didn't go as I didn't want air in my eyes.

Weekend started the deep-spring cleaning and did some cooking.  Sunday had supper with bils and sil - pizza.

Today is more housechores.

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

Looking around the house

Valentine's decor has been up since last week.  Sun is out so starting to feel like wanting to get the sunshine in... but still too cold.

Put away my 3rd 1000 piece puzzle of the year.  That's enough for this year, need to move on to other things.

Thinking and pondering

Will need to think about going to see parents soon (not next weekend as they have an activity planned with sis - ice fishing- and dh doesn't want to go to the activity)

Have been putting off going to town to buy what I need to finish basement bedrooms so that will have to be done soon too... I'll take a day off for that.
