Deck Dreaming.....

It's FRIDAY!  Today is one of those laid back Fridays when I catch myself making an impossible "To Do" list for the weekend.  It's usually something like this:

• Football Game
• Kids' Sleepover
• Run 10 miles
• Drink coffee/Eat Doughnuts
• Finish 12 painting projects
• Remodel Deck
• Prepare Gourmet meal for whole neighborhood (you know for that fabulous spare of the moment party I'm going to throw)
• Stay up late watching movies
• Then do it all again on Sunday :)

In reality I will do the following:

• let the kids have a sleepover
• make an excuse NOT to run with Patty (at least not 10 miles)
• drink lots of coffee & eat a doughnut
• paint a little
• watch one movie
• DREAM about a deck redo.

So I'm starting early on the last item and here's some inspiration for what I would like the deck to look like......

I dream of a deck that is an extension of our living space.  Can't you imagine sitting out on either one of these with a cup of coffee in the morning or glass of wine in the evening?  Someday, maybe someday soon.......

Anyone else think Bob gets scared when he reads these posts?  It's just a glimpse into his future "To Do" list!
