Yes!! It’s done! All planted! We finished busting sod on the back end of the garden, where I plugged in the squash seeds. Here’s hoping I don’t get too much damage from the rabbits and deer.
The photo turned out funky. I think my camera is starting to croak. It’s not focusing very well, and the color is now acting up. I got it refurbished, hmmm….
Anyway, now that the planting is over (well, we do have to plant sunflowers and tomatoes, but that’ll be easy), I can turn my attentions to the renovation. I got a quote from another plumber and his quote was $4200. :O I almost fainted. Wow. I don’t think I can do this, folks…. the plumbing is as much as the renovation budget here… *sigh* So I’m going to get one more quote from a different guy, and see what happens. If I only had the time, I’d do it myself. But I don’t have the time. This renovation must be done by mid-August. Whew.
More to come…. we start demolition in exactly one week. It’s heavy, heavy labor. And messy. I’m gearing up for it. No need to buy diet pills these days! 8-hour shifts of ripping plaster and lathe will do it for me… (well, a girl can hope!).
