Deck Update

BEFORE

Sunday, like I mentioned yesterday, Jim and I went out and bought the landscaping for in front of our new deck. Yesterday, Jim planted everything and I have to say, I love it! It still needs to be mulched (that will happen today) but I think it looks lovely. So happy. I love the hydrangea too! Hopefully it make it! (Thought I'd put before and after pics up to remind you what we had before.)

AFTER

On another reno note, we had our siding completed yesterday on the back deck and then had Larry our handyman, look at our bathroom. He gave us a good, round-about quote and I think we'll go ahead and have him do it. I'm so excited for that...you don't even know how badly the bathroom needs to be redone. The tiling is falling apart and though Jim does a great job keeping it clean in there it's just hard when everything is so old. Now I just need to pick out our tiling and vanity. I'm going to do neutral, light colors (grays and whites, silvers for fixtures) with any pops of color coming from bath mats etc. My biggest wish for this project is to move the toilet and put in a walk in shower. I'm not sure when this will get done but I'm just shooting for it getting completed by the fall.

So lets see...what's going on today? I've walked my boy and he's happy as a lark. He's obsessed right now with rabbits. Last night he sat on the bed and watched two bunnies hopping around the island for about 2 hours...no joke. Every now and then he'd start his whining/screaming/barking thing (ear piercing) making it very hard to try and sleep. On our walk, every little movement he saw from every animal he thought it was a bunny and he was pulling me all over the place. Ugh! Anyway, after I finish here, I'll go do the elliptical and then get ready to run some errands. I need to get a new pair of walking shoes because the ones I have are worn inside and irritating my foot. Bummer. I'll also head to Aldi and Costco. By then, we should be getting some rain and storms so I'll come home and chill.

And that's all I've got. Time to get my exercising done...happy Tuesday! Stay healthy! Later!
