Busy Busy Sunday, we feel like we have a billion things to do for the house and never enough time to do any of it.

Today we spent the day arguing with Geek Squad - they came by this morning to give us an estimate on how much it would be to mount the tv above the fireplace...let me just say THEY'RE INSANE. They told us $800...umm that's more than our actual tv...we threw a fit. Since its above a fireplace they're considring it a 'custom' job..which makes no sense, its not brick or anything different than an ordinary wall. The mounting bracket itself was $279..which is crazy but we ended up buying it, just not having them do the work.Ugh frustrating.

                                             

                                      














 Today I am...

 loving this quote

making plans to plant my very first garden

blessed and happy with everything life has brought my way

looking past the rain clouds and finding the sunshine

re-evaluating the things in my life that bring me joy and the things that bring me down

 grateful it's Friday and looking forward to the weekend with my love

2.  My last vacation was  _ Hawaii in March, most amazing place I have ever been to.

5. When vacationing one should always   keep an open mind and learn from each experiences

Joys of homeownership

Our ac is broken - apparently its a new system but one particular teeny pipe "looks like was welded by a 5 year old" - according to the professional and has a leak, making refrigerant escape. So there is none left in the system & that stuff is $50 bux per pound.

(thank heavens for a home warranty)

This particular pipe needs to be custom ordered and the time of arrival is unknown aka we are out stuck in a 90+ degree house for god knows how many more days.

We went to Target last night to get a window ac for the time being, hopefully it gets fixed soon or we'll melt!

Arizona is no picnic in the summer months

luckily the rest of the years fantastic weather makes up for it.
