Stressful Weekend

It is pretty sad when Monday rolls around and you are happy to get back to work! I usually have every other weekend off work, but this weekend was too stressful to enjoy much!

We have been planning to renovate our kitchen for a year or so now. A few months ago, the bottom element of my oven burnt out. Last week I was making supper when I suddenly had 2 foot flames shooting straight out of my cook top! The appliances and the kitchen are only 40 years old, I guess we should be thankful they have lasted as long as they have.

So after the stressful visit with the step-daughter on Friday, we spent 3 1/2 hours at Lowe's Home Improvement planning the layout of our new kitchen. Saturday, we drove back and went to Home Depot to compare prices and then several places to price appliances. I HATE spending money, so this all increases my stress more than you know! Praise God for good jobs, savings, & income tax returns!
