I had great plans to start working on the backyard projects this week, finishing up this weekend, as I have Monday off thanks to my very kind office, but, I've fallen a little behind schedule due to my recent: "Seasonal Viral Infection with Flu-like Symptoms". All that money, and that's what I get?
Still, I'm getting better - feeling much better with each hour actually. Last night Scott promised use of our backyard to the block club on the 17th of June, which I don't mind at all - especially since it's fueling new momentum to have it all completed by then. We've added a retaining wall to the mix - something that we had only talked about briefly in our planning processes before. Something new everyday, I tell ya!
I'm sorry that I have no update pictures for you all to see ... hopefully there will be a whole slew of photos of progress available Monday night. Til' then - have a great weekend, and a wonderful holiday. If you're travelling - stay safe, and if you're gardening/decorating - have fun!
Hope you feel better soon and are able to have a very nice Memorial Day weekend!

I think I spoke TOO soon, my throat is getting sore. Did I get that from the last time I visited your blog?
ReplyDeleteThat sucks. Hopefully you got some good drugs out of it!
ReplyDeleteYou know all us followers could dress up like nurses and bring you chicken noodle soup.
We would probably find any excuse to get inside your house and ooooh and aaaaah over your decor.
Oh, yeah, and you too!
After the Brimfield high, your immune system must have weakened! Rest up so you can enjoy playing outdoors! Be well.
