Yard Work, etc.

My digital cameras died last week so no photos to report; however, the bathroom we started a year ago is finally getting some attention again. Robert painted the ceiling yesterday and will hopefully touch up the wall paint and finish the trim work sometime this week. I will cross my fingers but not hold my breath.

Today I did a small amount of yard work whacking some weeds that have grown over and trimming down a bush in the backyard. While the yard needs a major makeover, I know that's not happening anytime soon so a little maintainence will have to do in the meantime.

Can't wait to get my new camera so I can take some photos of how things are looking around here.

Window Trim

This is the scene this morning.... The front of the house will be complete with trim on all of the new windows. Finally. Slowly but surely...

Spring Cleaning

Spring Cleaning... which means we've weeded out two bins of toys that have been neglected and outgrown. Joseph's birthday is coming and we have to make room for the gifts and goodies that flow in on a constant basis and the ones that will come at birthday time. Plus, I have no idea what we'll do with stuff for new baby... Time for a bigger house.

Patio Sliding Glass Door

Just in time for Easter we got a new sliding glass door going off the patio. Too bad it looks so awful agains the wood paneling of the old room. Maybe if we leave it long enough, it will come back in style - not in my lifetime!

Still Unpacking

I unpacked two boxes today. I condensed some of my bowls and serving dishes in my cabinets to make space for my nice Christmas dishes that are normally stored in the China Cabinet. Two less boxes in the garage. All this while I'm supposed to be "taking it easy." HA!

Windows! Finally!

2007 - Finally! After a year of owning the windows and having them stored outside, the bedroom windows are finally installed. Only one window to go - in our bathroom. I'll just cross my fingers for next year!

2006 - Or should I say 1964?? It only a took a year of living here to get this yucky window replaced.

Burn Pile

The rest of the barn is getting burned in our fire pit. This was taken a few days ago around sunset.
