I can’t believe the summer is all most over. And I really can’t believe I need to put my pool heater on in mid August! I haven’t posted any new project around the house because as luck would have it, everything is in good shape so I’ve been working on my tan.
I do have some good news to report. We had a major storm come through a week or so ago, trees bending, rain moving horizontally, pool over flowing with all the rain and my emergency roof repairs all held, so I’m happy about that.
I’ll be working on building a list of winter projects soon. Off the top of my head, I need to restrain the steps going from the sun room into the kitchen. It’s just 3 steps about 15 feet or so long. Also, repaint and do a little work in the bathroom off the family room.
I should have knocked on wood! I start the draft for this post Saturday morning, and now it’s Monday morning. I would have finished it Saturday but family matters called me away. Saturday afternoon the mail lady must not have close the mail box lid, not sure how it happened but as she pulled away we herd the crunch and when we looked out there was my mail box lid (from my NEW mail box) on the ground. For those keeping count, this makes number 3. Three new mail boxes in less then a year. The snow plows are up 2 to 1 over the post office.
SO, now I have a new project. I’m going to get a 4 x 4 post, post hole digger and one of those indestructible mail boxes and put it to the test. If it survive a year then we have a winner.
Later…
