begging for love & attention

While dirt is flying in every direction, sweat is pouring, muscles are being pulled, but things are shaping up.  Exhausted, we sit at the end of each weekend and say; “look’n good”.  Then, upon closer inspection I notice those little areas that seem to be begging for my love and attention. All in good time

installing a brick step landing [weekend project]

Last year I demolished our fireplace hearth, something I had dreamed of doing for years.  One Sunday morning, I removed the hearth and with the help of our teenage son, we toted the bricks, one by one, out into the back yard, cleaned up the mess and waited for my sweet husband to get home.
