Taking a walk on 'The Sunny Side of the Street' is my way of saying I'm choosing to look at the positive in life.  That's not to say that a cloud or two doesn't try to block the sun, or an occassional rain storm comes my way.  As the song says, "Life's sweet.  Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street."

Work Day

Today we made some progress on the house.  In the front by our driveway we have a cinder-block retaining wall that had chipped paint and looked pretty bad.  A few weeks ago my husband power washed it and got some primer on there.  It's been sitting since.  I decided it was going to get done today.  It became a family project of sorts. All of us (except Bekah who is a super-hero when it comes to dodging work) helped paint it. Check that off the list!

It was hot out there working, and even with sunscreen, I got a little burnt. Not too bad though.  The best part of this day was the fact that our pool is clear enough to swim in! Woo hoo! It was so refreshing to jump in after all that work. 

I'm pretty wiped out now. I think I'm going to crash on the couch and read the latest Dekker novel for the rest of the night. Tomorrow we tackle the back yard!

Told you the pool was where you needed to be! Clothes on would have been funnier. Ha Ha Ha.

Thanks for looking at my blogs :) I'm glad you liked that one post, especially. Modesty is just really so important, so I'm glad to hear there really are modest people out there.
