One Life Stand

That’s the high for today.  It seems that no one told Mother Nature that it’s December, meaning it’s winter.  I’m not complaining though.  The nice weather has allowed me to cross some things off my to do list.  After six hours of running around on Saturday, we finally got a rug for the family room.  All the stores were packed.  I guess everyone else wanted to take advantage of the weather too.  Hubby picked out gifts for his mom for her birthday and for Christmas.  I picked out my Christmas gift from him and got another wedding band as well.  My engagement ring and wedding band are soldered together and there are times/places when I’m not comfortable wearing them.  Now I have a simple band with stones that I can wear at those times.

Yesterday, we decided to stain the deck.  It should have been done a long time ago but better late than never.  However, we’re only about 75% done though.  We’ll probably leave work a little early to make the most of the remaining daylight and get it finished.  If there’s any stain leftover, I guess I’ll do the stairs in the garage as well.  Home improvement is a never ending quest.  At the rate we’re going, I’m hoping we’ll be done by the end of 2010.  LOL.

In other news, I’ve decided to finally get off my butt and enroll in some classes I’ve been wanting to take for years.  Of course that means I need to get some “school supplies”.  Hubby doesn’t understand why I have to get new pens and new notebooks when we already have plenty at home.  Nevertheless, I need to go to Target and soon.
