I hope they will. The shingles are on the porch roof…the porch is officially finished!!! Today they are coming to haul away all the construction debris. Gone will be the pallets…the wood….the extra things that make us look like a constant scrap yard. Photos? Or there will be plenty of photos…before and after.
Stay tuned.

We are really nearing the end of all things to be done here at Possum Manor. I worked yesterday on finishing the upstairs bathroom, but I did not complete the molding. I got it all cut, but I did not nail it down. I will do that this morning, put everything back, mop the […]
This has been all over the internet, but I still think it is interesting. It is now been admitted as a hoax, but I would really like to know how they did it. I certainly believe there are spirits walking around; I will swear on anything you want that I saw Ann’s dad […]

I was just looking back to what I wrote a year ago on the blog. One year ago yesterday we got our permit for a septic tank, our contractor had not flown the coop with our money, and we had ordered bathroom fixtures. It is so much of a blur to me. I am glad […]
Sing along….”The house began to twitch…..” Phew! Our power went out at about eight last night, just before the final episode of “Survivor.” I finally gave in and went to bed just after nine; what else was there to do? About midnight…BOOM..the lights came one, scaring the dogs and sending them […]
They did not finish the porch today. The got the gates on, the steps placed, and part of the beams nailed.
I can really tell how good it will look. The nice thing about the gates is that we can let the dogs out in the from, which they like. It will be even better when […]
Oh it is so leafy here. The trees are full and beautiful. It is raining and is suppose to rain tomorrow, but as soon as it is sunny I will take some photos looking outside from inside.
We planted most of our flowers, but have a lot to go. The rain will do wonders for […]
