Happy Monday! I hope you had a good weekend. Ours was rather quiet. Caroline is still trying to shake her cold once and for all. I finally took her to the med center yesterday where we were happy to be told there were no infections or anything troublesome. Just the lingering results of a virus. We’re hoping for a rather quiet week. We could all use several days of mostly puttering around the house, doing schoolwork, and working.
If you haven’t joined us yet in our cozy homemaking weekly goals, I hope you will today. If you need inspiration or ideas, I have many free printables full of ideas right here – Creating Your Cozy Life Free Planner.
I’m hoping to finally start working on some Christmas things this week. I do have my Christmas cards and a list printed out, but that is it. I haven’t purchased any gifts yet so I hope to get started by the end of the week. I enjoy seeing all the pretty presents wrapped under the tree for at least a week or two before they disappear.
In addition to the general Christmas stuff, my goals for this week are going to be manageable and include the following.
Goal 1 – Thoroughly clean to top of the stove
Goal 2 – Spend fifteen minutes going through recipes, etc. (ongoing project)
Goal 3 – Spend twenty to thirty minutes tidying up in the basement
What is on your hope-to-do list this week? Feel free to share any goals, big or small, in a comment below and then come back on Friday to let us know what you got done so we can celebrate with you!

First week I’m organized enough (or not sick) to come up with a plan.
Here are my goals:
1. cook Christmas cookies
2. finish decorating for Christmas
3. wrap already bought presents
4. clean/make progress on my bedroom (this is my bonus goal)
Hi Ticia,
Welcome aboard!
I hear you on the sick front. I’m currently coming down with whatever Caroline has had for the past ten days. Super.
I hope you have a good week!

My goals this week are to continue working on the family room, to put up some Christmas lights, and to mend one of the children’s snowsuits.
1) Straighten, dust, vacuum my and my girls’ bedrooms. Bonus if we get my son’s done also; his doubles as the toy room and and gets extra messy.
2) Make a batch of Christmas cookies
3) Make a list of recipients and a plan for buying gifts
