I Must, I Must



So we have just had confirmation that one of Ducky's friends is coming to visit in a month. He was here staying with us when the whole blessed remodel was just beginning. It looked like this. Actually, it didn't even look this good yet.


He said it wouldn't be done before he visited again. We laughed and thought no way. But, projects being what they are, it isn't done. And there is no way that I am going to let him be right. We are so close. It will be done.

So in the next month, the trim on the stairs must go up. Then it will be done. The paint must go up on the back wall. The trim must go up around the door. And a wee bit of baseboard. Then it will be done. And I will get to say "Ha, you were wrong."

Only about 2 dozen more projects and then I get to start something new!

only two dozen more projects and you get to start something new! heh.

our big projects for the year will be landscaping the front yard, and replacing the warped and peeling front door (which everyone will be able to see, once those arbor vitae are gone).

after that, like you, i get to start a whole new list.

good luck meeting your deadlines!
