Monday again!

I despise Mondays!! I always sleep so badly on Sunday's because I sleep in more on the weekends so I'm just not tired!! Last night we went to bed at 11, and neither of us was tired so we talked until 11:45, and then tried to sleep but I didn't fall asleep until almost 2!! And even then it was restless sleep! Starting a new week seems to just get harder and harder each time! Now I'm looking forward to every weekend so much, and it just goes by so quickly!!
At least this weekend is a 3 day weekend! I am looking forward to that!
Trav and I had a great weekend. We didn't have anything that we HAD to do, which turned out to be a GREAT feeling! Friday we had no plans at all, so after work we went out to dinner and during dinner K called and asked us to come over for a little get together he and Air were having. So we went over there and spend the evening talking, laughing and drinking! We stayed the night, and woke up at 10 on Sat. We sat on the couch and talked with Air and K until about 11, then we headed home.
We decided to go to Home Depot to get light fixtures, toilet seats, vent covers, switch covers, etc! $600, 3 stores, and 4 hours later we were almost done!! We had to head to Corvallis for dinner with the inlaws! Dinner was good. Steak, corn on the cob, potato salad, and watermelon!We left at 8:30 and watched a couple rentals we had just rec'd from Netflix!
Sunday we slept in until 10, got ready, and went to Trav's company picnic at Lakeshore Lanes. We had a great time! Trav bowled an average of 150! Nice work Trav! We bowled until 2, Trav won a professional bowling bag (yippee)!
We went grocery shopping after that and finally got back to the house at 5!! We were anxious to get back so we could put some of our new things together!! We worked from 5 - 10 on house stuff. It was so much fun! We could have gone all night!! But, it's hard to put lights up when there is no light from outside so you can see!! There is still more to do, but we got a LOT done and I already feel better about it!
I can't wait to get these little projects finished. Then we just have a little more we want to do in the yard, mainly to prepare it for looking beautiful next spring, and when the weather takes a turn, we are going to go crazy organizing the garage! Once all that is done, our house will feel complete! There will still be little projects we will want to do to improve it, but nothing will feel incomplete....like it does when you don't have switch covers or light fixtures are hanging from the ceiling!
Our next big house project will probably be the fireplace. We have to find a way to update it! We need to save a little more before we can start that though! Hopefully we can do it this winter!
Ok, sorry I talked for so long about the house! I got carried away!
Happy Monday!
