SHEs Organized

What are you surveying, spotting, seeing, "I spy"-ing, and observing today? Homemakers are the lookouts for our families and households! We are smart cookies, and we notice so many little things before they become big ones! What are you watching out for today?

Internationally, we observe International Holocaust Remembrance Day today.

This is a United Nations observance that honors and remembers the tragedy of the Holocaust and the millions of people who lost their lives at the hands of the Nazi government.

The 27th was chosen as it marks the anniversary of the date when, in 1945, Soviet troops liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest concentration camp.

Importantly (no, it's not, I'm kidding), the U.S. commemorates National Chocolate Cake Day today. Hmmm... .. Well, now, maybe we watch OUT for chocolate cake? We hold the ramparts fast against the caloric menace. Or something like that.

Hi!

I wish I could survey the area around me, but we are fogged in. I can see the closest neighbour and most of the driveway and that's it!

No idea what we are having for supper.

I don't know if I'm going to my "Stitching Saturday" group. I'll wait and see how the fogginess goes.

fast against the caloric menace

Harriet - I love your way with words. Thanks for opening the SHE village today.

I woke up an hour before normal get up time because I did not want to stay in bed like yesterday. I did enjoy those 3 extra hours of sleep yesterday, but it threw my entire day off and I was playing catchup the entire day without ever catching up. I prefer getting things done in a rhythmic, calm and energy producing way.

After a couple weeks of cold and cloudy days we are predicted to return to sunshine and above freezing temp for the next 6 days. I have already been outside 3 times this morning enjoying the comfortable weather. The birds are singing so loud that I can hear them while inside the house.

Our small town is hosting a fund raiser today for a local lifelong lady who fell and broke both of her legs. She needs a helping hand while missing work and recovering. We are having a silent auction and community meal with all proceeds going to her. I will be spending a couple hours today supporting this effort.

We got dd home last night and I think everyone slept well. It's pouring rain today, so I have ordered Instacart and will push off the trip to the bank and getting gas and going to the drugstore for another day. Ddog is sleeping in still, I'll have to take her out in the rain eventually and around the block.

Dd is up and in good spirits, very talkative. I may lose my mind but it's dd and I love her and I'm glad she's here.

The house is quiet.

happy morning to you!!! I will be back soon but wanted to say hello!

Unloaded and reloaded dishwasher.
Watered all plants.
Put the laundry into the dryer and now all clean laundry is away.
Washed knives/large utensils and most pots and pans. (I thought I was done and then I turned around and saw 2 frying pans on the stove...)

Fog is receding. All 3 cats were outside for a while. Now the older 2 are inside sleeping.

Dd is showering, I gave her my special body was to use and told her to pamper herself. Dh not home yet. House is quiet for a minute.

hello again!

d harriet thank you for starting us and also thank you for sharing that it is Holocaust remembrance day!
I also love that you celebrate the art of homemaking! It touches my heart and I like to think about homemaking as an occupation/love.
I am so happy you enjoyed the webinar yesterday!!!

d twins I am so happy your dd is home (I know you worried about her traveling from the airport)
Nothing feels better than to know one is loved - I know your dd is relishing being home with all that adore her.
