We're getting a patio!

You know you've gotten old when you get ecstatic over the thought of a patio being built. No, not a new pair of shoes or even concert tickets. I am doing the happy dance over stone.

Anyway, we are waiting on approval from our HOA. Gotta love that. Have to submit an application with 4 signatures from neighbors, another paper that describes what is being built, a sample of the materials and a copy of our plot of land. It's just a patio folks, it's not like we want to paint our house bright orange!

We should get the approval next week and then it will be built next weekend. I need to start researching patio furniture now. Nothing fancy, just 2 chairs and a table so we can lounge outside in the shade. Ahhh, just thinking about it is relaxing :)

In other news, I am THRILLED that it's finally Friday. And not just any Friday, it's Girls Night tonight. I'm really looking forward to hanging out with everyone and just catching up. Oh and a few alcoholic beverages are going to be nice as well!

  4. We picked up a great bistro set at Sears - glass tiled top - real wrought iron chairs and table base - we got it as a floor sample for 200 bucks! Not bad! Check there!

    Have fun tonight girls - I'll be thinking of you as I drink my fricking 80 oz of water a day!
