The porch has been emptied of all that does not belong. I have a bench Dad made me out of hand cut barn timber on one side with an old metal egg basket full of pine cones and Ki's bed underneath. On the other side is my chainsaw chair from hubby with a forked log table made by Melissa, my oldest. It is topped with a smashed bucket used for trash. The second fork of the table is used for my drink when I am sitting. I know it's not Home and Garden but it's me.
Well, I haven't sat down much today. I worked outside again until the heat ran me in but I am declaring the porch finished.
The corner I had to vacate, due to the now deceased family of wasps, is closer to being finished. I'm gonna add some wonderful rocks. With the rubber underneath, the grass will not overwhelm me this time.
This is the pipe I am trying to camouflage and a flower bed Dad made for Mom years ago. I'd say some attention is long over due.
Progress moves with the speed of molasses around here. See all the mess I have to clean up? It will have to wait until it dips below a hundred again. I am working/playing inside now.
Almost finished!!! Trimmed and moved the gladiolas to the back, removed the grass, and replanted the bulbs I accidentally dug up. After I clean the mess from this, the rose at the end will be trimmed, mulched with rocks (roses love rocks) and I will have cleaned twenty feet. I work too slowly!!
Oh, forgot to tell you...I'm on vacation this week. First time in a long time that I'm off just for the fun of it. It may be a triple post day every day because I hope I get a lot done to show you.
