now spring has sprung and I am happily resuming my multitude of yard projects
We also want to level parts of our hilly yards , front & back. We've been watching HGTV & know we need special equip. for much of this. I laughingly said to my husband that I love waterfalls & why don't we put one in? After watching one large one that a crew of 12 put in with bulldozers ,using huge boulders...he's now decide we can do that on a much smaller scale with some little machine that you hire for a couple of hours. I don't know about this...even with our 2 sons helping it seems too much. He's not satisfied with those little plastic liner things you can buy at Home Depot...thinks they won't hold up to freezing weather & will crack & you've done all that work for nothing. This involves the hauling in of 2-men- carry -rocks . I believe he's thinking it'll be great fun running that little dirt- pushing machine around the yard, maybe pushing some rock around too. He's always wanted a riding lawn mower but our yards are too steep for them. This is man's work, stand aside honey... I'm afraid it will be a 'Tim Allen builds a waterfall' fiasco thing. I will be trying to get my doll room back together, at least get a trail in there so I can get to all my shelves. We finally decided to use our garage as workshops instead of parking the cars. My side is not deep enough for anything longer than a Honda , which is what I had when we 1st moved here. Now I have a longer car which doesn't fit. he's had his car long enough now that it's no longer a love object but something that can actually be moved out of the garage & into the driveway where it'll get wet by rain. He bought 2 used worktables & is adding these to his collection of other work tables & since there's too much on his side & he was edging me out on my side, he's very magnamously allowing me to use some of these precious furnishings. So I may move what craft stuff ( that's still good) is in the doll room down in the basemen garage. There's a great window there too, which I don't have in the doll room ( I covered them up to protect dollies from the sun). We can easily work for a solid month & come no where near to finishing all these projects. Pat H.
