Weekend in Overview

Well we had a weekend sans kids, and tried to get a lot of stuff accomplished during it.

Saturday Dan and I woke up early and went to an equipment & consignment auction. It was outside and about 105 sizzling degrees. We scored a couple of awesome items; An old marquee sign, a yard edger, a vehicle mounted stop light, a dresser that almost matches a desk I have, and a sweet antique gunk parts washer, which is now a table in our home.

At around noon, I had to leave Dan at the auction and venture home to prepare for a friend of mine's baby shower. Jamie if you're reading this, I love you, but I hate baby showers... It pretty much sucked.

Sunday we went to breakfast with our friends at the Route 80 Restaurant... MmmmmMm... I wish I could have an Edison Skillet right now.

After that we went out to Lowes, argued with the sales team there, and left with 31 boxes of wood flooring for $1.92/sq.ft. Originally it was $4.75... Another store had it on clearance for $1.92, but they didn't have enough boxes for our 650 ft. project. Yay for creative bargaining techniques! I even argued when they rang it up at $2.00/sq.ft... which is something I never do. We both felt pretty accomplished when we left.

This happened within 15 minutes of us being home... (**Note the marquee sign from the auction)



Our New Floor.. :]
