3 Whole Days of....

Holy Hannah! We have a lot to do.

This weekend, for most, is a 3-day, fun-packed vacation which (at least in Utah) involves boats, campers, ATV's, BBQ's, lots of sun, etc, etc, etc...

For Michael and I? WORK. At least this year. Kyle, Michael's son, is coming to stay with us this summer and we have yet to finish his room. This project began about two months ago when it was still snowing blizzards here and we couldn't work out in the yard. Since the sun decided to show it's face, we quickly abandoned this project and moved outdoors getting our yard and deck ready for the summer months. BUT- since Kyle will be here in a week, we need to finish our bedroom project.

At least the walls are painted. At least the dry wall is patched. At least furniture and decor are purchased and put together. However, the crown molding, floor boards, and bead board isn't cut, mounted, complete. So we have THAT on our to do list this weekend as Kyle will be arriving in 8 days.

Other projects include replacing the ever running toilet in the master bathroom with the new toilet that has been sitting in a box for three months in our now organized garage. Also, the installation of a new garbage disposal (which is currently sitting in a box next to the new toilet in the garage) needs to be installed so my life in the kitchen can resume normalcy.

Oh and of course the basic yard stuff like mowing, edging, pulling weeds, planting flowers, water the lawn, etc...

Oh and the normal weekend chores of cleaning, cooking, laundry etc...

And I'm sure I'm forgetting about 50 other priorities on the list, ETC...

Three days might be enough for most to relax and have fun this holiday weekend, but I doubt it's enough time to accomplish everything Michael and I need to. I swear, once you buy a house there's never enough time, money, relaxation, yadda yadda yadda.

So for those of you who can, enjoy the weekend congrats. And please pause for a moment to think of me sporting my paint stained clothing, accessorized with muddy yard gloves and sweat pouring from my brow as you comfortably sip your Mai Tai in the sun.
