Construction Site in the Rain. Tuesday, June 10th.

The dark area is where the three steps off the porch were  located they ran the full width of the sidewalk area..  The red tape is to remind me NOT to step off the porch.....muscle memory still thinks there are steps.  It also stopped the Sign this Petition People from ringing the doorbell.  Super Fantastic.  They annoy the crap out of me.

The dark area was under where the stairs used to be and the long deep crack was caused by the water under the stairs...... freezing and thawing.   James did an excellent job cleaning everything up before he left. Now he has to build a new structure for the still in perfect condition stair tops.  They were not made of wood. And fix the Porch posts which also rotted out from water damage. And climb the ladder to remove the "diverter" from the roof....I think it will be difficult knowing my husband....and how he did things.  

It's been raining so watering the big planter box and its little sister on the far sidewalk isn't a problem. I have to exit out of the garage to cover the two containers with netting every night and uncover in the morning..  I'll get used to it.  There are cracks in the driveway as well....big enough to trip on and fall. So that will be an added danger to my health and safety going forward.

I've had to get used to quite a few new things in the past two years.

I chanced upon the treasured DEBL dyed scrap cloth....It's gonna BE SOMETHING and that will be AMAZING to work on.  As soon as World Cup Soccer is over (in the rain)...so much rain.

Need to reheat my coffee-again- I paid my bills this morning ...checked them twice and then again to make sure I did them correctly.....My AGE is slowing me down finally.  Without my consent.........
