Good Morning Monday!

Good Monday Morning!
Hope you all are well!
Well, thank the Lord the sun is shining brightly today!
Don't know why but that seems to give me a lift......even though it's pretty chilly outside.....at
least it looks warm!
I didn't sleep really well lastnight.....could have been theFajita Nachos I ate at the Mexican place after church lastnight......it was so much food....I brought half of it home!
I have a very hearty appetite,especially when it comes to mexican food (could eat it every single day) and I could not eat anywhere close to all of it at one sitting!
Anyhoo....I was up at 3:30AM with a teeny touch of tummy troubles.....sorry if TMI (too much info)!!
I got up and took a shower at that time and then went back to sleep at 4:00 AM and slept 'til
nearly 7:00AM.....DH said I was sawing some serious logs.....lol! I must have slept better in those three hours than all night long!! I told DH that was payback for all the forests I'd listened to him cut down in his sleep over the years! hee..hee.... :)

I guess it will be woodshop work today.......we've got to get enough pieces accumulated to take to the show we're doing in March....we're gettin' there a little at a time.....but at least we are gettin' there!
I've already washed the breakfast dishes, got DS's lunchbox ready,made the bed, fed the cats, put a load of clothes in the dryer, one in the wash and one to fold....emptied the bathroom trash cans and took out the kitchen trash,did my Bible reading in Proverbs....Chapter 22, checked the fire in the wood stove out in the wood shop, called the gentleman back at the Amish place we buy lumber from and got the beadboard ordered for the furniture pieces and DH said I could order extra for the kid's bathroom re-do......Yeah!!
That was what I'd asked for as a Christmas present......I want their itty-bitty bathroom (walls) covered with beadboard from ceiling to floor......then painted.....maybe an avocado green color....
don't say "eeeeewwwww" as you read this.....lol! My friend/good customer painted her hallway this color and it is absolutely GORGEOUS with all her black framed pics & prim stuff on the walls!!
Wow! It's wonderful!
I'd like for us to make our own trim and paint it a shade of white or vanilla......
The sink top....around the basin.....is a pukey rose/mauve color.....we all dislike it very much.....
we can't find a pre-made one piece the right size....so we're going to have to do something else......I'd love to do a distressed wood-stained top.....heavily coated with that marine polyurethane (protect from the moisture) and then drop in a really unique basin for the sink.....
don't know if DH will go for the sink part.....it may just have to be a white drop-in.....I still think that would work too.....I thought about even a pedestal sink.....and then DH could make one of those over the commode stands(for the much needed storage)that has a place for a neat basket for the kid's toiletries, and a couple of doors maybe....to hide towels and washcloths.....

Before I go.....Do any of you watch this show on the Food Network?
It's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.....
DH, me and both kid's love to watch this show!!
It makes us wished we had a family restaraunt.....both of our kids even want one!!
DH especially likes the pork bbq, rib and brisket places.....he enjoys doing that kind of stuff.....
I enjoy eating it!! LOL!!


Have a great day all!

I love that FN show! It's my favorite! The only problem I have with it, is that it makes me hungry! :D

OK, I'm now offically to tired to do anything after reading all you've done already...I love the DDD program. The BBQ place you asked about I beleive is on the MS coast, not sure, but I haven't been there. MS has some fantastic BBQ places, the best being my Hubby's BBQ grill...lol..he can smoke some mean ribs.I've tried to get him to start a little rib shack, but he's not interested...

You have had a busy day today! I know all about the tummy troubles. I was awake alot Saturday night with my reflux. I felt horrible yesterday morning and didn't even want to go to church but I made myself go. Keep us posted on the bathroom re-do. And we all love to watch the Food Network, too.

I love mexican food too! Sorry about the tummy ache.
We watch Guy's Diner's, Drive-In's and Dives every week! We love it! The only bad thing about it is that it makes us so hungry, and that's not good at that time of night. hahaha!
I love beadboard, and I think the color sounds great!
