ljgeoffYesterday was a pre' damn good day. We started out with a visit to the boys' birth mom which went well and then we all went home and had a nap. It was delish.
After that, we started working on the greenhouse, pulling the boards that I cut last fall out of the basement and putting them back together. I decided to just let Mike build it the way he wants; it's overbuilt, but that won't kill me. Conceding almost did kill me but I decided to take the "choose your battles" road, since he doesn't get any say on the fish tank.
So, we have the south wall of the greenhouse completely done, and the north wall ready to put together. The east and west walls need to be cut and we need to buy some hardware for the door, which will be a large window on hinges.
Also, all the snow from the back yard has gone, leaving it a morass of mud and dog poo. I raked.
The front yard faces north and is in shadow most of the day, so it still has an inch or two of snow that's melted down to mostly ice -- it should be gone by next week.
We're going to get the stuff we need to wire the upstairs bedroom we gutted last month, and the insulation. And once we get the greenhouse done - next weekend, I'm hoping - I'll start on the fish tank.
Oooh, can't forget to make an appointment with the nursing adviser to go over my application!
