Monday Monday Coffee Break

Monday Morning Coffee Break

The mail basket.  This is all shipping today!

Good morning!  It is Monday morning yet again.  You know that day that comes around every 7 days and most of us dread because it means you have to go back to work and or school.  Well, I love Mondays.  Well, mostly I love Mondays.  I love getting back on track with a set schedule for the day.  The kids are in school and I can focus on my blogs (which needs attention...I know, I know:) and my business The Green Belle Shop by Shelly Rose.  The only part I don't care for is getting up at 5:30 am!  But, what can you do.  Someone has to get up and get the kids ready for school.

So to get back on track.  I am making myself blog *hopefully every day.  To do this I am going to have a similar blog every week for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and so on.  Here is my list so far--subject to change of course:)

Monday=Monday Morning Coffee Break
  *A brief little post telling you about my weekend or maybe new items coming soon to my shop, or maybe just some ramblings from me.  I can ramble well!

Tuesday=Top Ten Tuesday
  *A Top Ten list of some of my favorite things.  Can be anything and everything is possible.

Wednesday=Wear it Wednesday
  *A post on what I am wearing that day or how to style (though I am not a pro-stylist by any means.:) an item or other.

Thursday=Craft it Thursday
 *A post on how to craft it or what I want to craft new.  Sometimes a tutorial with pics if I am feeling really bloggy (that's not a word, but I think it should be).

Friday=Freebie Friday
 *Yeh!  Someone will get something for free with a purchase made that day.  Random draw of course.  Make sure check it out!

Saturday and Sunday/Weekend=What I'm reading this Weekend
 *Exactly what it says above.  I will talk about what I am reading this weekend.  Could be a book, could be the newspaper, could be a menu, or just a label if I really have no time.


Here is a few items I am working on or mailing out today...

A cute little tie onsie being mailed today.

What I'm working on today--a Rope Scarf

So, what do you think?  Like it?  I think this will help me keep on track a bit more and share my ideas with you.  Let me know if you want to hear about anything special!

Have a great Monday everyone.

What to do instead of blogging!

Well, I keep thinking and feeling bad about not writing anything on here...because well...I have a million other things I should be doing. So I thought I'd just sit here and list it all out instead of getting up and writing a list on paper (which I'll probably do anyways as I can never be without my lists).

What I need to do today--

Shower
Give 2 little ones a bath
Cloth the little ones
Vacuum (love love love to vacuum!)
Sweep
Clean downstairs bathroom toilet (I have boys in my house...yuk!)
Make dryer balls
Make sample crocheted eggs for Easter
Plan dinner
Actually make dinner
Start dough for bread for dinner (better hurry on this one)
Get recyclables ready to take to town
Go to town and run a couple of errands
Go to fabric store
Take photos and list new items on etsy

What to do in the next day or two or three or four!
Order some yarn
Make more dryer balls
Vacuum upstairs
Organize attic for my new improved large sewing and crafting and kid play room!
Clean upstairs bathrooms
Make birthday cards for April B-Days
Organize bills
Clean off big table...clutter collects
Laundry...everyday

Ok I have to stop now because that list is getting a bit too long...

Bye for now...who knows maybe I'll stop back by today...wait no I don't have time!:)

What's on my agenda for today...?

Today I feel like I have a lot of time on my hands, even though I am watching one more child today for a total of 3 under 3, not so bad they are all mostly good as long as they are fed and rested that is.

So why is it that I feel bored? I cleaned the house yesterday...so not much to do there...I did laundry on Tuesday and Wednesday so only one load today...oh wait there is clothes to put away in the boys's room (dang). Maybe I am bored because I am procrastination making more cotton cloths and dryer balls? Well I don't want to get too crazy with those, if I don't sell more pretty soon I am going to have a laundry room full of balls...at least my clothes will get dry in a jiffy!

So...I decided this morning that I would make a good dinner, you know the works, home made bread, salad, sides and main dish...well since then I've made a couple crocheted cloths, 3 facial cloths, 2 dryer balls...I've even watched some TV (which I hardly ever do!) I guess I really don't want to make dinner. I just don't know what to make. It seems like I make the same thing over and over again, stuck in a rut. I've looked for other things to make but they all seem like the same thing... tweaked a bit. Hmmm...I think I'll go crochet some more and worry about the food later...

Happy afternoon everyone!
