Currently - August 2024

 

It's August and we're talking about what we're currently loving, looking forward to, things we're scheduling, buying, and gearing up for.  Pop on over to Jennifer's blog and join us.

loving // having Vic home.  He's using up his leave on the books before his official retirement date of October 1 so we're sleeping late, staying up late, and taking a LOT of coffee breaks while he's been endlessly planning our new deck.  We finally finished up all twenty seasons of Grey's Anatomy and will be looking for a new series to enjoy in the evenings.  Update:  Just read that Season 21 of Grey's is in the works!

looking forward to // our new deck.  Vic is demolishing the old wooden one and replacing it with composite materials.  It's a lot of work but he really wanted to do it himself.  I can't wait to see the finished result.


Demolition progress.

things we're scheduling // Vic's new career adventure!  We only have his start date - October 7 - but no other details yet.  I know he'll have a week of new employee orientation and then some training specific to the engineering department.  He's going back to his electronics/electrical roots in his new job.

buying // Wood, composite decking, railing, all the things new deck.

gearing up for // fall!

  1. How nice that Vic has this time to relax, er, work hard at home, before starting a new job! A new deck, made with composite, will be great.

  3. How lovely to have Vic home!
    My youngest is just finishing up Grey's Anatomy, she has a couple more episodes to go and then she is going to start on Station 19 the spinoff show. The new season of Grey's starts at the end of September.
    Good luck to Vic with the new deck. It looks like he's been working hard and with the new career.
