Some Advice Please!!!!

Hello Guys, 

So some advice or direction would be nice here... 

As you saw from the post I just posted we just bout a da** good deal and now its time for the Reno-s :). 

It is a little challenging to discuss the renovations with my wife as she is a Worry Wort and as soon as I discuss renovations she automatically goes to "this is too much money, and we can't afford it, and were going to go bankrupt, and were ruined forever" fortunately I am able to brush off my old PhD education and qualm the mini anxiety attack and return her back to base line. So, I am figuring out how to keep her calm and be part of this team that we are.

For my DIY-ers 

attached is a photo of my deck... everything on the house is original from our old landlord. underneath the deck it collects water and it sits there, my wife is afraid the deck might be starting to become unleveled, any tips about this? (PS the couch is out side because we are waiting for heavy trash day in the neighborhood LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL) 

and finally, in the front of my house (another picture) at the bottom of the column were the concrete paver the column sits on looks like it might be rotting a bit... and advice on how to address this too? any help would be greatly appreciated!!! 

God that is one amazing flag to fly in front of our home! <3
