Hubby has been working hard on designing the built-in’s surrounding the fireplace.

This is his design in our last home.

This time, he’s designing it for the TV over the fireplace.

Here he is at the beginning stages with the electrician and the gentleman that’s building the wall unit.

As well as wiring for our little lamps on the shelves as well.

Then the gentlemen put their heads together with the electrical and design plan – they concur.

I was busy last week narrowing my decisions on appliances and fixtures and various other items. I did end up changing my mind on the kitchen counters finding something I liked a little better.

I keep questioning my choices as there are several things where I’ve changed my mind. However, things are coming together as it’s crunch time. I can’t wait to see how it all comes together.

We’ve had an amazing weekend together and have pretty much taken a vacation from house stuff and just spent our time together. We had a nice double date with friends Friday evening and hubby took me out last evening and again today for Sunday dinner.

Here is one of the desserts I had this weekend. Peanut butter chocolate pie to be exact

I’m up a total of 3 pounds within the last few weeks and I can see why.

So, the goal this week is to take off what I’ve gained so that we can have another date next weekend.

I’m hoping to really get back in the groove to get the rest off but have yet to find the right path. I plan to embrace the journey soon.
