Happy Labor Day everyone! I hope everyone is having a relaxing, wonderful, safe Labor Day! I certainly am!
Saturday, John and I ran errands, had lunch out and then relaxed for the rest of the day. Sunday, we went out to breakfast, did the grocery shopping and then came home. I fixed the food for dinner. Jenny, Kevin and the boys were coming over for dinner. I would have invited Megan and Ken too but they were away. After everyone left, John and I just chilled out and watched some TV. Today I got up super late for me 9:30 a.m.!!! I am usually up every day at 5:30. Now I'm hanging out here for a little bit, John is taking a walk on the greenway and then we both are doing nothing but chilling out! I will read, knit and maybe watch a movie. It feels so good after working so much OT at work and working the last 7 weekends in a row! Sometimes you just have to say, I'm taking a break.
There seems to be a bit of a breeze outside today, which is perfect because I would like to sit on the back patio for a little bit and get some fresh air. We have been in touch with a carpenter and after the HOA says ok, we are putting a roof over the patio with a metal roof! I love to hear the rain on a metal roof, very calming and relaxing! Here is a photo I found on pinterest that are close to what we will be having built minus the fireplace and outdoor kitchen.

We are also going for a green metal roof. We are waiting for the HOA to approve so our carpenter can get started. We have also hired a flooring specialist to come in and continue the hardwood flooring into the living room. John and I will rip up the carpet and the flooring specialist will feather the hardwood from the other areas (kitchen, hall and breakfast room area) into the living room. We can't wait!! So many wonderful things happened here!
Well I'm off to knit out on the patio for a little while and enjoy the beautiful day! I wish everyone a Happy Labor Day and have a wonderful week!!
