So much to look forward to this week..

Sunday's are always bitter sweet. The end of the lazy days for the weekend. The Crunch time to the start of a new week. I have so much to do and look forward to this week. I have been married to my best friend for eight years this coming Thursday. It's been a crazy fun time being married to him. Today I am doing all the chores for the week. I re arranged our furniture and love the way it looks right now. I got two cute wing back chairs a few days ago at St Vinney's. I am turning into such a junker. I always have but its getting addicting. I have a lot to get done laundry, dishes, sheets, I would like to pre make a few dishes. My sister in law( Hub's brother's wife) Broke her foot last week and I would like to make them a few meals for their freezer for when and if she has to get pins put in her foot now. I feel so badly for her. She is a wonderful sister in law and her kids make me smile. Her husband has always made me feel like a part of the family and welcomed me with open arms. Hub's his brother and dad are three of the sweetest and most caring men I have ever met and I am so lucky they are family. So I will be getting things together and visiting her lots in the next few weeks. Cause I know what its like to be stuck at home and she would do the same thing for me.

I am re-decorating the back deck and hope that I can find a lot of things for it in the Free section of craigslist or get things from my friends that they no longer want or need. Hub's and I want to have a big BBQ and invite all our friends and family over for a little get together. I have been planning this for a long time in my head and now I can plan it on paper! Its my birthday coming up and I think that would be a good reason to get together. Even though hosting a BBQ is so much work and really the people putting it on don't truly enjoy it as much as one would like. I think its something that we should do. :)

One thing I really want to get done before the summer is the deck built on the back but there are so many other thing that need to happen first so I just have to make the best with what I got....I will post before and after pictures and see what you all think.  I can't wait to see what a little spray paint does for me with the chairs on the deck! :) I want a gazebo so bad it would be great to be able to bring my lap top and sit outside under the shade.

What are you doing this week? I want to meet some new bloggers so I am going to link some of the people "I want to get to know" on here leave a comment and hopefully get a few new friends. If you want to do it please link it back to me and then maybe I will be Lucky to have new "friends"

Thank you so much for linking to me - that was very sweet!

A bbq for your birthday sounds like a fun way to spend the day. Yes, I want a gazebo too but like you I have a million and one things that come before that (unless I find one somewhere) LOL! What are my chances of that? You never know!
