The downside: it's now more painfully obvious than ever how much the exterior of our house looks like something out of Life After People.
SO, to hopefully get our asses in gear, here are some "Accountability Befores"... and hopefully we can at least get our house to a level of ignorability before the crowds set in...
As we know... the front garden:
Needs: Rototilling (sp?!), topsoil, plants, mulch, and possibly rocks to finish it off...
(WHICH I managed to punch a hole in last week! Nothing makes a thick girl feel worse than a chair leg dropping through a floorboard... rotted or not...)
Needs: New moulding, prime, paint, sconce, outdoor tablecloth, replace floorboard.
The driveway and front walkway:
Needs: Edging, weed pulling/killing. (NEED a new driveway... but lets keep this list manageable...)
The back porch:
Needs: Oh so very much... new door, new sconce, a good scrub down!
Needs: A good cleanup/purge of junk (yes, there are three grills, and NO, none of them work! I know, absolutely ridiculous!), some weed wacking, and a clawfoot tub with veggies planted in it! :)
Oh yeah, and I still want to get that rain barrel!!
You are far from thick, my love.
