Well, everyone, we made it to May.
It's a big month in my world because I usually spend all 31 days celebrating myself. (Or encouraging my family members to celebrate me 😉.)
Mother's Day and my birthday fall within quick succession of one another. Hopefully, my family's read through my Mother's Day Gift Guide so they don't need to scramble for gift ideas... Because, honestly... the guide will point them in the right direction for gifts for both occasions.
For my part, May is usually the month I grant myself permission to treat myself. Now is the time to order some of the things I've been holding off on buying. I have my eye on some new pieces for my wardrobe and, possibly, some new art for the house.
Last year, finishing my 40 Before 40 challenge was a priority. To make sure I finished the list, I had to be creative and allow for some concessions.
But this year? I plan on enjoying myself as much as possible!
With that in mind, I'm going to ignore the laundry that still needs to get done... so I can read some more chapters of my current read. While I do that, here's our weekly menu plan.
Keep reading if you want to see what's on deck for dinner at our house this week!
