It's early; I'm up, and I'm already ready for work. I've already mentioned that that last week was the worst week in a really long time at work, and although I rarely mention work here I will say that I am going to positive-think myself through this week. It has to be better. It WILL be better.
I had a delightful weekend; I don't know about you. Saturday I decided to ride my bike to my mom's house. 12.4 miles. And then I rode home. I didn't make it home - I got 9.4 miles before hitting a complete brick wall and not being able to move anymore without wanting to throw up - but thankfully Hubby's dad was over with his truck so Hubby came and picked me up. So it appears I can ride my bike 22 miles, but not 25 miles, which would have gotten me all the way home. I thought I would be fine, and I may have if it wasn't so hot. Damn summer heat in April. But it was an awesome workout and I was suitably sore for the rest of the day.
Hubby's dad brought over people to start working on my deck so now We! Have! A! Frame! They were here all Saturday and it looks huge based on the new footprint. To say I'm excited is a serious understatement. We picked out a composite wood for the decking so now we're trying to find out how fast we can get the wood in so we can have our deck. Looks like I have a great deal of gardening left to do.
Easter was also delightful - we did the usual sunrise service at the zoo, followed by breakfast (at a new place, because last year I got horribly horribly sick so I've sworn off Village Inn forever, which I didn't like anyhow) and then a leisurely day at the in-laws which included lots of food, an Easter egg hunt, swimming and an egg-shaped cake. 'Twas good.
I hope your weekend was also delightful. And here's to this week - a turning point, right?

This sounds like an awesome weekend! Perfect after a bad week!
Dying to ask. How are you affording the deck renovation with your husband out of work? Seems like a big expense on just 1 income?
Sounds like a great weekend! Here's to a much better week for all!
Mia, generous in-laws.
Stacie and MF: It really was, here's to many more! :)
That's great! Must be nice to have such nice in-laws. Hope you realize how lucky you are.
I do, they are really awesome. Every time someone complains about their in-laws I thank my lucky stars.
