Buy a House, They Said. It Will Be Fun, They Said

So I just planned on tidying up a bit out front today.  Nothing major and not for too long.  Well, I got on a bit of a roll.  I can’t believe how different the driveway looks:

A few hours later:

A couple people commented on how it looked and it really felt nice!  Now I just have to keep it this way.

This was Pinky while I was out de-lawning the driveway:

She’s not very lady-like but she’s awesome.

I hope to go for a short local flight (maybe some aerobatics) tomorrow morning and then visit with my little mother. I believe she’s having a bit of an issue with her lawnmower.  The wheel flew off last time she cut the lawn.

We were asked at work to share pictures of the things in our life that make us happy and positive.  This is the pic I submitted:

Which was probably a better choice than this one:

Tee hee!

Today’s symptoms: After a fairly rough week symptom-wise, I was feeling much better today.  I think I may have overdone things a little last weekend and paid the price.  I love these good days!

  1. Houses are certainly a never ending source of work, yet when the work is done they offer an equal portion of peace and security. Your driveway looks fantastic!

  2. Liz, I hope you enjoy the maintenance, It isn’t too bad if you can keep it up regularly, but if you go away on vacation or have a “down” spell it becomes a major job again. I don’t mean this as a downer, because I enjoy puttering outside and inside and it calms me. However, I sometimes think I’m too old for this! We started to think about selling and moving to a seniors’ residence but in light of this year’s events I am glad we didn’t get the house ready in time to move. I know now why my mother never wore her glasses – You can’t see every little smear or dust layer
    Good to see your posts.
