Sunday Salon Blog Hop

 I came across this new blog hop over at Vicki's Blog.

So I thought I'd join in this week is all the happenings around here and check out a few new blog on their blog hop. Feel free to also check it out and join in today.


Right Now..

I'm in my Melbourne Storm Oodie in bed with pillows upon pillows browsing blogs for something to do before I have to do shopping, cook some meals for this weeks meal prep and do a cover letter this afternoon for a job I'm applying for this coming week. The weather is a cool 15 degrees, the boys are in the lounge watching the news and Nevaeh is still sleeping.


Books..

To be honest I haven't read any books this week but I have downloaded the ABC Listen App and have been following the daily podcast of the Death Cap Mushroom Murder Trial each and every night before bed for the past few weeks. 

Also another great listen would be the MR BIG podcast on the same app. Search Unravel and trust me, you wont be able to stop listening. 


Movies and TV..

I watched The Little Rascals Movie on Mothers Day.

I have also been binge watching the old episodes of "Trading Spouses", "Kitchen Nightmares" and "Rich Kids go Skink UK" on YouTube. I have also been waiting for the new episodes of "What Would Your Kid Do?".

The last three movies I watched was "I am ALL GIRLS", "Secrets we Keep" and "Leave no Trace". Highly recommend them all (on Netflix).

Other than that we have been watching and playing along to  "The Floor" Monday and Tuesday nights on Channel 9, "Letters and Numbers" on SBS and "The 1% Club" on Channel 7.


Games..

I added this in as I do like playing online games as well as watching my gameshows. 

Lately I have been dominating FreeCell, FruitMerge and WordGuess on an app called "Offline Games".

I play "Wizard of Oz" and "Wonka Slots" as well as "PokemonGo".

Every morning before my partner David starts work, we play "Scrabble", "SongPop" and/or "Stop 2".

David also plays Monopoly.


In the Kitchen..

We bought a new fridge! 

I have a great post on how we are saving money on groceries on the blog tomorrow so be sure to check back for some info. We have cut our shopping bill in half.


Todays to-do List..

Shopping

Meal Prep

Cover Letter for Job


Bible Verse..

As I said earlier I haven't read much this week but I was just saying to my David last night that I want to start a new bible study. If you guys have any recommendations, I'd appreciate it.


Grateful for..

My son embracing his culture and identity for the first time.

Family time together.

The ability to give my kids a few "wants" and not just what they "need".

A New job opportunity.

Supportive friendships.

A partner whom loves and understands me, whom I can lean on and rely on. 

My Home, my Heater but most of all my Health.


From my Camera..

This pic was taken on a night out last weekend!

As I said, it's my first time linking up for the Sunday Salon blog hop.. 

Feel free to do the same!
