It's raining out today and I'm loving it. I normally love rainy days and today is no exception.

We had a good holiday weekend, and Scott is still on vacation this week though I am not. I'm enjoying a rainy morning here at work while I lazily surf the net (and yes, I am allowed to do this at work thankyouverymuch!). We had surprise birthday dinners and pool parties and lots of time visiting with family. It was nice.

Now back to the grind - you know, the one where we're trying to get lots of things done with little time and/or money. We're still waiting on our drawing/layout from the excavator so we can get our permits. He will be contacted today...I spent time yesterday writing out plans and budgets and I have no idea how this is all going to work. But it has to, so we're pushing ahead.
