Projects

I am so thankful to have had this built-up vacation time that HAD to be used by the end of May. I took this week off and attended to some projects that I've wanted to get to since we moved in last fall. Now that the snow is gone and the sun is here, I feel like I can make headway around

Projects completed:
- weed whacked the entire yard (first time)
-built new sandbox
-built new bence under tree house/play structure
-installed baby swing outside
-purchased water table for the kids
-fixed leak in kitchen sink; replaced outside spicket (sp?) - plumber
-installed A/C unit (one done; 3 to go)
-spread wood chips under play structure (25 bags done; 25 to go)
-installation of perimeter fencing (hired this done)
-weeded area and start raised bed garden
-built kitchen area under play structure
-home depot returns (done!)

Projects still underway:

-complete the pool fence (it was a foot to short and I was unwilling to spend $6500 - 10K on a new one so we are working to raise the pickets and then back fill the bottom space with wood or something else. (~75% done)

-sell stuff on Craigslist; prepare for a mega garage sale.

-finish labeling the electrical panel; minor repair to base of chimney (required for fostering) - all but 7 done

-decorate play structure

-plumbing repair on bathroom sink (to be done by plumber next week)

-new carpet installation (being done tomorrow)
