I'm not sure where last week went. Somewhere between bottles and diapers it disappeared. By the way--guess how many diapers I change on average per week. You can leave your guess in the comments.
I did manage to accomplish my list. The chicken is all in the freezer. I left 11 of them whole--to be roasted, and three of them our neighbor smoked for us--yummy. (If you've never had smoked chicken try it!) The remaining 19 I cut up and froze separately wings, leg quarters and boneless skinless breasts. The necks and backs I freeze in large bags. On cold winter days I pull a bag out of the freezer and cook it off the bone and use the chicken for soup, casseroles or dumplings--but who wants to think about cold winter days right now.
The corn patch is weeded.
The clothing is sorted and organized neatly in a tote. Wonder what people did before there were storage totes?
This week we have several dentist appointments, but there are still other things to be done.
I would like to finish some sewing that I started before our foster children arrived.
I need to patch a large pile of jeans.
Last but not least I need to work on my canning shelves. I will soon be filling them again and I would like to organize them a little before then. Am I the only one that gets a slightly panicky feeling about the upcoming canning season? Once I'm in the middle of it I enjoy it, but the anticipation is stressful for some reason.
Today we host a family reunion at our place so my day will be filled to the brim.
Have a blessed week!
