Happy Sunday, friends!
This might be really weird to say, but I’m really looking forward to the start of the week. Believe it or not, the past month has flown by and our move is only 4 days away, the start of the week means Friday (and our move) is that much closer. I cannot wait!
Our weekend was busy busy busy, all day Saturday was spent back, and thankfully we got a lot done. Most of what is left, is odds and ends, clothes and our food. All stuff that should be fairly easy to throw into boxes Thursday night, or Friday morning. Honestly, I could probably pick 4 outfits out for the week, for myself and Emmett and throw the rest into our suitcases. I can’t wait for this move to be over, I could use a lazy weekend.
Today was spent helping the buyers of our armoire move it to their home, buying an adorable new outfit for Emmett from Carter’s (everything is 50% off right now), going out to lunch (with the money from our sale of the armoire), grocery shopping, visiting with my parents who were in Niagara Falls for the weekend and stopped here for a visit on their way home, making homemade bread and soup, and finally some packing. Yikes! Sounds like a busy day, right!? It was! Though, I don’t mind busy days like this.
The only negative point of this week was my sciatica / back pain / leg pain flared up big time last night. Probably from all the bending up and down yesterday while we packed, but I’m trying to not do anything that puts any unneeded stress on my lower back. I’ve worn my sneakers all day today, which really seems to be helping. I am beyond sick of this pain, it has brought me to tears on many occasions over the last 2 weeks and I am just so angry with myself for letting myself get to this point.
And now my Sunday Meal Plan
Sunday: Wegmans Kale & Mushroom Soup, Homemade gluten-free bread
Monday: Burgers on the grill & fries
Tuesday: Steak with Chickpea, Tomato and Feta Salad (This recipe was so amazing last week, that we’re making it again this week)
Wednesday: Chicken Tacos w/ Fresh Veggies
Thursday: Scrounge Around House (night before we move)
Friday: Moving day – We will likely have to grab something out since everything will still be in boxes
Saturday: Homemade Gluten-Free Pizza
Looks like a pretty good meal plan to me, let’s get the week started!
As usual, I’m linking up with Laura from Mommy Run Fast and Jill from Jill Conyers.
Your turn!
What’s on your meal plan for the week?
If you’ve moved, do you typically eat out on the actual move day, or do you find food around the house?
Chickpea salad sounds amazing! Hope the move goes smoothly for you.
It is so so good, Laura! You should definitely give it a try. Thanks for visiting!
Aw, a fellow Buffalonian! Hope your move goes well! Your meals look delicious!
Hi Janelle!! Awesome that you live in Buffalo – I LOVE Buffalo!! Thank you so much for visiting.
Each time I’ve moved, I stopped grocery shopping at least a week before because I hate having to deal with moving fridge items! So we scrounge or eat out in the interim, and definitely eat out on moving day. It’s just too much work to think about cooking in addition to moving!
Also, we’ve got homemade pizza on the menu this week too! Twins 🙂
Good luck with the move!! ♥
Howdy Adie! If Seamus and I weren’t on so much of a tight budget, and I wasn’t trying to eat strict gluten-free, then we’d probably eat out for every meal. We both enjoy meals out so much, but it’s just not feasible.
Yay for homemade pizza!! That is where it is at! Thanks for visiting, peach!
