Menu Plan Monday

I am trying to be more consistent on my blog, hopefully entertaining those who read it. So I am trying out different approaches.

This one is going to be Menu Plan Monday. I'll list what I plan on making for dinner this next week. Some people will have trouble with this one since they don't cook.

Monday- Tacos
Tuesday- Oven Fried Chicken, Rice and green beans
Wednesday- Fish
Thursday-Left overs
Friday- Pizza
Saturday- BBQ
Sunday- I really don't know

So what are you going to make this week?

Make a list Monday

I'm going to start, Make a List Mondays. Every Monday, I'll write a list of whatever I feel like I need to list. I'd love if you could post your list as well.

So here it goes:

-Tuesday morning around 9, hit the movie store.
-9:30 be at B & M motors for car repair
-Somewhere around 10:30-11:00 go for reinspection for JCI (Japanese Compulsory Insurance)
-Hopefully pass and hit up the 100 yen store with the kids
-Grab some lunch at the bowling alley with kiddos and bowl a game or two
-Check the mail
-Come home and let the doggies out
-Make dinner and clean up
-Enjoy the family time
-Go to bed

So what is your list for tomorrow?

I love these! Vintage humor has me all cracked up!

Morakot

Our first typhoon of the Summer, at least that I know about, decided that Okinawa wasn't so tasty. We did take everything down as did all the neighbors. It got windy and rainy but that's about it. This first picture (above) shows the track as of yesterday. We are that itty bitty island that says Kadena. I know it's an awful picture. The typhoon is headed straight for Taiwan and China.

Kinda sad that we didn't get a full storm, just to say that we had one. Probably a good thing we didn't.

Life

I am sure many of you are anxiously awaiting pics of Alli's birthday and any other thing we've been up to. I have my blogs written down but have been so extremely busy this week that no d this pic posted. So as a nice surprise I found this picture of the front of a card that will surely hold you all over until I can get to the more personal entries.

ENJOY!
