onthepequod,
LMBO, that dishwasher story is hilarious! I am glad for you that your wife has a sense of humor!

Thanks for sharing it!

I have no pics of the bathroom I did. ;( I forgot to mention that it was the bathroom in my home in AZ and when I left here, I left my son with the house and he sold it (which was fine with me, it was old and half torn apart from the remodeling I left undone when I left). He is a born skateboarder, never had the desire to learn from me what I know and would never have finished the house himself.

I am taking pictures of the work I do in and around this place. I forgot to take before pics of the over 100 large lawn bags of debris in the form of dead vines that had accumulated over many years, covering fences and almost killing trees. It took me almost two months to clear the property of it all! I do have this one though LOL...the tree underneath is just a hackberry and since it lost all the limbs you see in this pic due to strangulation by Queen's Crown Vines, we are considering cutting it down, driving an iron nail into the center (that will kill it right?) and slapping a small tabletop onto it and a couple of chairs next to it. (This pic does nothing to show the severity of the dead vines that weighed down the fences around the whole lot!) That dark area in the right background that looks like it could be a fence is, lol, covered in dead vines two feet thick!

A Deck project built around a a big old (long dead) oak stump is first in line though so that I have something to go on when it comes to paving paths and adding garden areas for foliage. The Oak stump is going to get a big tabletop and umbrella. That is being saved for after the window and trim painting projects that hang around here in limbo waiting on me to finish them (it has been raining every evening since Sat. or Sunday, but that is all done with no, no more excuses for slacking!) Years from now, there will be added shade to the deck from at least one of the two magnolia trees we just planted recently.
: )

Glad you like my pup! Have you clicked on my profile and checked out some of the cats? I need to update that page since I have pics now of the three not shown!
Ah, well, I need to get back to my morning chores around here. You know I will stop in later though! See you sometime!
