i got a substantial amount done this weekend myself. 
New flagstone path to the front door, with 4" solid bluestone curbing.
Extended the 6x6 retaining wall.
Primed and painted some 4" O.C. T-111 for the porch ceiling.
Re-plumbed & re-wired the laundry and basement, put up a ceiling in the laundry area and industrial shelving+lighting in the other areas of the basement.
Laid out all the tile in the mudroom (can't find enough of the same lot of tile I already have to finish, Grrrrrr)
Went to Stepeny and got another FULL truckload of tools...
YAY, I have my MIG and small Roll-around back.
...Along with my Top and Mid boxes, small Jointer & Planer, Drill Press, PortaBand, Router Table, Belt/Disc combo machine, Hollow Chisel Mortiser, two Barrels of Clamps, a half dozen 'Third Hand' tools, Rocket launch tower, two Wheelbarrows, five step ladders, two Extension Ladders, Scaffold planks, Ladder Brackets & two Drywall Benches.
I must have looked like Jed Clamppet rolling down 25 & 95.
Oh, and I stopped in at the brand new Big Orange Box on 111 in Trumbull at the end of the 25 highway.
Good inventory, everything's orderly, and the staff are still friendly (so far)
