New Blog

Since my domain name is going to expire in 5 days, I thought I'd let you know that I have a new blog. Also, here's a short explanation as to why I switched blogs.

Menu Plan Monday | Week 3

Alright, it's time to get serious about this menu stuff! Here's a realistic rundown of how this week is going to go.

Monday: Eating @ my parents' house
Tuesday: Hamburger Gravy & Noodles
Wednesday: Pork Chops & Mashed Potatoes
Thursday: Chicken & Stuffing
Friday: Chili

I always feel bad when I have something planned to eat & then we end up eating at my parents' house. I can't resist my mom's cooking, though!

Just Write

I worry about my blog a lot. Borderline too much. I worry about the design. I worry about the words. I worry about the lack of words. Am I not posting enough? What do I even write about anymore? Who am I letting down by not posting for a week? How is the world going to know about my meal plans if I don't tell them?!

That's about the point where I start to see the ridiculousness in it all. Who cares if I'm not posting enough. Life goes on. So what if I want to sit on the couch and veg out for days watching Netflix. I took a two hour nap the other day and didn't feel bad about it. I need to just write and quit trying to make this thing into a business. So here I am, just a blogger sitting in front of a virtual audience, asking them to love her.

Aaand this post has turned way too ridiculous for its own good. Talk to you soon!

Menu Plan Monday | Week 2

I totally cheated on last week's Menu Monday. We ate at my parents' house on Monday and at a restaurant on Friday, so I only made 3 meals last week. Aaand that brings my monthly total to 3 meals! I'm kidding, except I'm not. 3 meals are better than no meals, right? Here's what I'm attempting for this week:

Monday: Ham & Potatoes
Tueday: Sloppy Joes + Mac & Cheese
Wednesday: Tacos
Thursday: BBQ Chicken Sandwiches &; Mashed Potatoes
Friday: Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes

The awesome thing about this menu plan is that I don't have to buy anything! I have it all at my house right now.

Best Thing/Worst Thing

Everything in my life has either been the best thing or the worst thing that's ever happened. I don't have an intuition, so every decision I ever make is just me crossing my fingers and hoping that it's going to work out. It kind of sucks. My go-to is usually playing it safe because at least I know that will work out, but lately I've been all over the place decision-wise and it's leaving me with so much anxiety that I can't even stand it. I hate vague blogging about all this, but there's only so much I can share before things become official in November. But, just so you know, I'm all #ugh over here for days and days.
