Productive Day

Today Jeremy and I went all over the place. I slept in, drank liquids, and am still fighting the temptation to cough and talk without hoarseness. We drove to a carpet warehouse to get the carpet we had been looking at for 1/2 the price - way to cut out the middle man! We can get it installed and all for about $1000 less than the carpet store could do for us. We placed the order. We went to Menard's (save big money at Menard's) in Lancaster. We wanted to check out the laminate countertop for our upstairs bathroom. We found some we liked, but didn't order any. We went out to eat because we were hungry (and in honor of Sweetest Day??) at La Cascada because it was in the Entertainment book. (We joked that those are the only places we ever go to eat - if there is a buy one, get one coupon!) From there, we checked out the shoe selection at Famous Footwear. Oh yeah, in between there we went to Old Navy for some jeans for Jeremy. Finally, we headed home. We got home and relaxed for a brief moment before Jeremy said he wanted to go check out some things at Lowe's. So, I put my shoes back on, and we headed out. We got another estimate on the same countertop and found out you can save big money at Menard's... like $60! (So, we'll have to go back to Menard's at some point.) We found vanity lights we like, as well as new faucets for our sink. We'll get those later. Finally, we purchased some dark brown paint to update our base cabinets in the bathroom. We'll see what all happens, but our home is slowly getting updated....

The good news is that because we were running around most of the day we didn't have to sit and watch the slow, torture on the football field - yeah, you know the game I am referring to. Maybe next week will be better. Hope everyone has a great week.
