I hope you pencil in naps after mornings like that! Some of my mornings sound like yours, although I have to get dressed first thing because outside chores await and we have had people drive up at 5 am on more than one occasion. :)Ranch Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08581852590008365006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-13375434295634105772016-05-25T12:43:40.589-05:002016-05-25T12:43:40.589-05:00This sounds a lot like my morning routine, except ...This sounds a lot like my morning routine, except for the cooking and canning! When I was teaching school, I dreamed of a time when I could bake bread like I did when my sons were little and I was a stay at home mom. Now that I have the time, I have to give my bread away so I don't eat it all!!! I do manage to make it about once a week. Yours looks delicious! What recipe do you use that you can let it rise all night?

My morning usually requires me to make 32 ounces of vegetable juice (for two of us), and then be on my way. I never bake (unless asked, because we don't need to eat it ourselves), nor do I do any meal prep. Laundry, yes, but even that not all the time; my hubs does it too. Most of my days are spent exercising for a couple hours, and attending group activities like quilting and stitching. Thanks for making me appreciate what a good life I'm living... except for seldom seeing my children or grandchildren.

I've never been bored, never wondered what I'd do with my day and often wonder how I found time to do what I did when I worked!! <br />Keep enjoying every day; they are gifts. <br />Would love to get your WW blueberry banana muffin recipe and any other you want to share.<br />Marsha<br />quilterinmotion@gmail.comQuilterinMotionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624854595176562054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-11530483135370093462016-05-07T05:21:28.004-05:002016-05-07T05:21:28.004-05:00Wonderful post!Wonderful post!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177252615483127694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-58608507635032435132016-05-06T20:53:04.910-05:002016-05-06T20:53:04.910-05:00Why do people worry that there won't be enough...Why do people worry that there won't be enough to do in retirement!<br /><br />Happy Mother's Day!Sharon Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12306529969593583312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-10279908680998121072016-05-06T18:52:36.691-05:002016-05-06T18:52:36.691-05:00You are very busy!!!!!!You are very busy!!!!!!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16292519625560497199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-75633347250309053612016-05-06T15:52:47.943-05:002016-05-06T15:52:47.943-05:00AMEN!
