Holiday weekend

1. We had a lovely three day weekend, did a bunch of nothing. (Except yardwork and coloring my hair)
2. The new pond fish are starting to enjoy themselves during the day now, swimming around. I believe we have five currently. Four shubunkin fancy goldfish and one butterfly koi.
3. The house is fairly clean, yay, although I could stand to vacuum today.
4. Makenna got a cold on the last day of preschool, booo, and now I'm getting sick too, double booo.
5. We got our first estimate for painting the house yesterday. Suppper impressed with the guy, we have another estimate scheduled for Friday, although we will most likely go with we guy we met with yesterday. He does color imaging so he will give me multiple schemes to choose from, including the one I am thinking about. We are getting a quote from a carpenter tomorrow to rebuild some porch posts, replace some fascia and a rotted out window sill. We have reached the point of just paying professionals to do work labor intensive work, we are getting old, lol.
6. Yes, I was thinking about vinyl siding but paint on the aluminum siding should last quite a while for less money sooo, yeah.
7. I am going to be off this week due to the holiday, I need to remind myself that it isn't Monday...
8. Moved one of my hostas yesterday to front of one of my beds, looked like I needed something there since my chicks and hens died which I had planted last year.
