Curtains....And other stuff

I have been looking at my blank windows for the past couple years wishing I had curtains. This is a rental. And when we moved in I was 7 mths pregnant. I wasn't able to put as much passion into this place as I wanted. But now my baby is 21 months and still no curtains. So I have to do something. So follow me on my journey for curtains for my rental home. I am only doing one room at a time for budget reasons. Also, I am secretly praying my hubby will relocate us. Our neighbors here are nice. But I'd hope to have true friendships by now. The couple next door is really nice. The husband gives us veggies from his garden. And the wife and daughter are nice. They wave when they drive by. I guess they think I am super busy with my little ones. And I am, most of the time. Ok, new subject. I am bumbing myself out!!

Has anyone tried FlyLady. I am trying to do her flybaby routine. Check out her site and let me know what you think. I like shining my sink. But my hotspots require more than 15 minutes. So I give myself about 20. But by the end of the day, the kids have distroyed whatever order I had. So I start over again the next day. Happy to know that school starts soon!:0)

What's for dinner?- Recipe Inspirations by McCormick

I literally wake up thinking about what is for dinner? I could and would cook all day if it were not for all the dishes. I love cooking. I hate doing the dishes!! So I am always looking for something to make that job easier. I had been calling my Dad when it was time to do the dishes. That way I am talking to him and not really focused on the horrible task of dishes. But it is kinda noisy for the person on the other end. So, I decided I would cringe and do it right after each meal. So I cook less. :0)
Tonight I am making Rosemary Roasted Chicken and Potatoes. It's from Recipe Inspirations from McCormick. They have a cool recipe with pre-measured spices attached. I think it's cool. I gave them out as Mother's Day gifts. Not too pricy and thoughtful at the same time. Ok, let me get to it. I will let you know how it turns out. Stay tuned!!
