We just had a short discussion on "so this is our day off?!" But with the good weather now upon us and wanting/needing/doing so much outside, it's hard to find time for ANY inside stuff. So it's kind of a relief to get to what has been piling up. (Yikes, I thought I already paid that bill!) We've both taken a little break . . . he rode his bike out to get the mail and daughter and I spent some time outside with paint chips trying to decide what color I want to go with for painting the house this summer.
