The Productive Weekend

I will be the first to admit that I am not all that handy around the house. I don't have many carpentry skills, and I just generally don't get into household projects.  For some reason I was motivated to get things done this weekend.  By noon today I had accomplished more than what I have in the past 10 weekends.

Friday at work was another rough one for me.  It seems like Fridays, especially Friday afternoons, are some of the most hectic times of the week.  Friday should be the day where you can mentally check out a little bit; enjoy yourself a little bit more.  That happens sometimes, but not this week. When I finally got home I just wanted to veg out.  I resisted the urge. We went to dinner then made a quick stop at Home Depot to pick up some trim.  As we got home the sunlight was waning, but I had just enough left to get the front door painted.  Our front door was looking pretty shabby.  It needed perked up a bit.  I spray painted it; which I was worried about.  I thought it might look pretty ghetto to put spray paint on a front door.  However, I had used the same paint on our back patio furniture and it looked really nice.  I really didn't have anything to lose.  The door wasn't going to look any worse than what it already did.  Everything turned out great.  The door looks 100% better.  I should have painted it a long time ago.
