project week??

Much to my husband's dismay, project week 2008 is almost upon us. For the past several years, my husband, who has WAY more paid vacation than I, has taken a week off in the summer or fall and worked around the house. This year that week starts on Monday. The list is long as always and includes fun things like painting trim in the kitchen, painting our spare room and office, moving all the furniture since we are flip flopping the two rooms, building shelves in the basement to hold storage totes......did I fill up the week yet? Sounds like lots of trips to Menards, ACE hardware, and many sore muscles but he takes pride in our home and even though he won't admit it, he will be glad when the project list is smaller. Thankfully, he is also planning to take a day and go fishing up north with a buddy; somethings he loves to do but gets to do only infrequently. I love that he is willing to do this to make a dent in the improvement list we (and every homeowner) have for our home. Starting tonight we are going to do some prep for project week....things like taking stuff off the wall, patching nail holes, maybe moving some of the furniture. Better stock up on ibuprophen. Go get 'em honey!
God is good all the time - put that on the list!
