Handyman

Today was pretty cool. After a couple days of pure laziness, I decided that as long as I was spending time in the house, the house was going to be a place I enjoyed being in. So....I made a run to Lowes, picked up a few supplies, and rebuilt my first fence. It was a little harder than I thought it would be, but it turned out great. I couldn't be happier. I also managed to fix the garbage disposal, change the air filter, do 3 loads of laundry, and clean my bathroom.

While I was outside working on the fence, Shell sanded and spackled the walls, changed out the bathroom light bulbs, vacuumed the sun room, and rearranged the weight set. Once I got back inside, we set up the Christmas tree, rearranged some furniture, met Yaakoub for dinner, whipped up some guac and pita chips, and watched 4 Christmases.

In hindsight, Shell was a trooper. The day started soooo slowly, I was going crazy. But, we finished strong and got so much done. There's just a few things left to finish up tomorrow. Finish painting the spackled walls, decorate the Christmas tree, finish the laundry, clean out the garage, set up the weight set, and cook the extra Thanksgiving turkey. I've also got to find time to get in a run and make it to the 11:30 service at Celebration Church. It's going to be a great day. I can't wait!!
