Re: today

You sound like me.  I got the pavers ordered for our back patio 
finally!  I just couldn't stand the sand being tracked in the house 
anymore, and hell might freeze over before my husband finds a job.  So, 
enough of the waiting around for something to change, and on with 
living!!  Anyway, I'm taking Friday and Monday off of work and hope that 
4 days is enough to get them all laid.  I do need to call and reserve a 
brick saw tomorrow though- or else we won't get much done!  I'm sure 
I'll have a zillion more weeds in another week, but at least for now I'm 
(briefly) caught up.
