This is crazy weather. It was almost 70 degrees one day and then we get two days of snow. It is pretty, but I was ready for spring. I wanted to sit out on the deck without multi layers.

It makes the house feel bigger. It has been to cold to sit long, but at least it is there. We got the deck furniture out of storage, which made room for some of the boxes sitting in the guest room right now. When those are put in storage, there will be enough […]

It took three men and myself to move that hut tub onto the deck. This was not their first hot tub move, but it was their first that had to be squished between a house and a tree and then flipped onto the edge of the deck. Our deck guy left the one side […]

They made great progress on the deck today. The went as far as they can go until the hot tub is placed. I called the hot tub guy and he could not find anyone to help him today. Problem is: he is going to Costa Rica tomorrow afternoon and will not be back for two […]

I am fantasizing of the day I get to sit out on the deck and do nothing for fifteen minutes.
The bathroom is taking shape.

We really got horrible advice early on and should have had this done before the drywall and all that stuff. The guy who was going to do it said it was not […]

They started the deck!!! I am so excited! They dug and cemented and pounded all day. The frame is up, and he will be back next Saturday to put in the posts and start nailing on the boards. Next weekend we should have at least the platform. This is all weather permitting. He […]

We are having real problems with Brando, the nine month old, sixty pound dog. From the beginning, he has wanted to be alpha dog.  His struggle to become this is now taking on aggressive traits. He is a sweet dog. The cats come to him to be chewed on. He has his puppy problems, but […]
