Menu Planning Thoughts

I have not been planning a menu and I’m noticing my stress levels rising around the supper hour more and more each week.  When I don’t have a plan I am floundering and supper is served later and later.  I feel like I am always behind and then I am staying up later because the kids are up later.  I am finding it very frustrating.  Part of the problem though is the lack of groceries in the house.  We need to get out and purchase some food.  However, we are waiting on some decisions regarding our budget and income before spending a bunch of money on groceries.  For now we are eating from the pantry and making due.  It’s not terrible.  The cupboards are not bare.  We are simply out of the easy to prepare stuff.  What’s left takes a little more planning on my part.  So I’m not planning a menu because it’s so much work to even plan that menu.  It’s laziness on my part and I should just get over it, but that’s where I’m at; just bein’ honest.
