I've made a list of all the things I want to get done while on break this week. I may not get all of them done, but at least I'll get a jump on things. When my mom was living in Montgomery a couple of years ago, I spent most of my time going to her house on the weekends and my house went untouched. It's time to devote some TLC to my little corner of the world. I love this old house. We rented it for almost 10 years then the owner decided to sell it to me a few years ago. The previous owner never did a thing to the property but I love it, warts and all. I'm a DIY kinda girl so I love doing stuff, just don't always have the time or the cash.
Spring Break To Do List (not in any particular order of importance):
- Have shrubs removed from front of house, flower beds cleaned, oak tree trimmed, fallen tree in the back chopped up and all debri placed at curb for city pickup.
- Remove caulking from bathtub, bathroom sink, and kitchen sink and replace
- Plant something (?) and make a pathway in front of house
- Work in garage (the never ending battle)
Anyway, here are the before and after pics of the yardwork I had done yesterday. It looks rather naked right now, but I'll fill it in as my budget allows ;)
Front - Before and After
Side of House - Before and After
Front Window Hedge - Before and After
Today, I'm off to get some plants and run a few errands. Then since it's raining today, I'll work on the caulking. It's nice to off work, even if I'm working like a dog!
Have a great day, and don't forget to drink your water!
Looks like you were busy!!! I am a DIY kind of girl too :-) Right now I am working on tiling my bathroom. I really need to fix my caulking in the kitched too. Have a good day!
