Projects...



At our house we always have a full list of half finished projects, great ideas that we want to work on, and the realization that it takes our family 3 times to get anything done correctly...  This week has been no different!
This is a picture of the "list" that we keep right next to the door coming in to the house from the garage, but there is too much we should be doing, so we just leave our list blank as our goal!

On Sunday morning we woke up with the great ambition to get started early, and accomplish as much as possible, but by 1 p.m. I was ready for a nap, but I kept going and crossing things off the list and so did the  rest of the litter. 

 Here is a break-down of the projects that got some attention from all of us.

Milo's List:
* Keep the Bed Warm
* Make Sure the Pillows Were Comfortable


Miley's List:
* Chase Away All Spiders
* Give Possum a Bath in the Water Dish


Boogs's List:
* Watch the Squirrels, Tell Mommy If They Run Out of Food
* Protect the Computer, so Mommy Doesn't Get Side Tracked!



Daddy's List:

* Work on the Bathroom Remodel (The walls, ceiling, and flooring are all gone!)

Mommy's List:

* Find Something to Do Wish All of these Apples!


* Bake Pumpkins (Just Because I Wanted to Try Something New)
* All the Fun Stuff...Laundry, Vacuuming, Dishes, Dusting, Cleaning Bathrooms...

Learning about Catering, and Myself!

Last week I was in Las Vegas, attending CaterSource Catering Convention. I learned so many things about myself, my work, and the people that I am surrounded by.  Some good and some bad, but all have helped me to realize more of what I want for my life. Over the last year I have realized how important it is to take the time to make these realizations.  I need to know the my strengths so I can keep them going.  I need to know my weaknesses so that I can work them.  I also need to know my goals.  Even if they are ever-changing goals, I still need to know them.  If I am walking through my days just hoping for the best then I never know if I get anywhere. I have realized that as much as I used to love doing surveys that I have now found them to tedious.  I would much rather be part of focus groups and interviews.  Not only do they make more money for my time investment, but they also do not take constant attention, whether it be daily or weekly.

A Week of Golf

In 2017 my team was tasked with exciting job of catering to the LPGA Marathon Classic for their week long golf tournament here in town.  We had less then 4 months to prepare, and we had never done anything on such a large scale before.  It was both exhilarating and terrifying, especially for an Enneagram 6 like me.  We are loyal and committed, but our biggest needs are security, and we fear not having the support and guidance needed.  What a way to walk into a task like this.   I was suddenly tasked with finding organizations to fill close to 200 shifts for concession stands, as well as around 75 employees to help me make this event a reality.  It took a lot of time, planning, questions, stress, and a roller coaster of emotions, but we did it!  It was amazing the feeling that you have after you accomplish something like that. Since then we have continued to receive this job each July, and each year has gotten a little easier.  We have ha...

Weekly Menu Plan

This week has already been changed around again and again from my husband being in town, to leaving, to coming home early, to leaving again, so the menu plan has been changing, but that is the great thing about having food in the pantry & freezer! Since I didn't get around to making "Cheese" Soup last week, I made it last night.  While it was an interesting batch of ingredients, it turned out to be quite delicious!  I will post my version of the recipe tomorrow! This week we plan to eat at work everyday for lunch, or to finish up leftovers from the fridge, so even less menu planning! For dinners I am making the following: Taco Salads "Cheese" Soup Loaded Nachos Steamed Vegetables and Crescent Rolls (My husband can live on vegetables alone!) This month is busy at work, and I am having company this weekend, and traveling next weekend so I won't be doing any freezer cooking for a little while, but I am hoping to do a few large freezer cooking s...
