I love my house
Can I tell you how much i love the new house? I do. I look forward to going there every day after work. I look forward to walking the grounds as I call it when I water my plants that are freaking everywhere. Work has been batshit crazy but soon as I get home I forget I even have somewhere to be the next day.
Simon really likes it too. He owns the place.
This week I've replaced the workings of a toilet, twice cause why do it right the first time and set up our guest bath. Our AC had issues and unfortunately is only working at 75% of what it should be doing. It was originally not doing anything and sleeping in a 91 degree bedroom was not my idea of fun. Our second unit is working just fine and dandy. I can make my kitchen an ice rink if I choose but that would not be the adult smart thing to do.
Simon's leg has been improving. We've lowered his pain meds and removed the leg brace cause he got a blister. Now the key is him leaving the scab alone. If not, the cone of shame is going on. CONE OF SHAME! Do you hear me Simon? No? Well, leave the damn leg alone.
Garden is doing well. I have photos on flickr from last Saturday but they are so not what the garden looks like any longer. I ate green beans off the bush this week (I grow a bush variety instead of vine) I've seen a few zuch flowers, and my mysterious berry bramble appears to be raspberries which makes me do the dance of joy. This weekend J dawg is in town. Sunday night we are grilling and kara is baking. Besides that its up to the boys. I plan to play in dirt per usual and knit some as well as hit up a few yard sales. We bought a set of nice patio furniture but I need to find something to revamp for the front porch. I was digging this green revamp but maybe with a purple cushion but it all depends on what I find, if anything.

Love the pics - need to stop by sometime and see the new place. Congrats, by the way!!
Looks like paradise! I'm in love with my new/old home, too. Although, sorta freaking out that I lost my job (that I was unhappy with anyway). The last six weeks or so have given me a lot of ups and downs. A LOT.
