Good, but busy. Sean's gotten so much accomplished. Me, not so much.
I've spent a lot of time sitting on our front porch staring, thinking, and mostly hoping. It's been amazing to see him pull off something so major...the most I did was some sweeping, raking, cold-water supplying, sunscreen applying, and sandwich making. Which equates to about 1/1000 of the whole project.
So, here's all the fun and excitement so you can see what's been going on around the Griffin household this week. Yard
We've been plant shopping...we spent over an hour at the home improvement store picking out each brick individually... Sean's never going to let me in those places again...I think I came up with four more house projects while we were there...I'm like a kid in a candy shop...except I know little to nothing about anything when it comes to all this house improvement & tools stuff....oh, but do I loooove to dream. :)
The yard is starting to take shape... hopefully a good shape...I'm still not quite confident enough and have been really grateful for every neighbor that has taken the time to tell us it's looking good. We discovered as the first branch fell that our next door neighbor has a massive jungle that the trees had been dutifully hiding for us...I'm getting used to the idea it's all going to be exposed for our viewing pleasure until our little plants grow big and tall.
Tomorrow should be the day we can wrap it up. We'll wait on one more plant and some ground cover for the back of the yard and hopefully we'll have everything wood-chipped so it looks nice and neat. Notice how I keep throwing around the word, "we"...when it's actually Sean. He really did it and I'm so grateful for that...the yard will be ours...my crazy ideas and his hard, hard work.
