The first spring we moved to this house, the neighbor girl dropped by to give us some mail that had accidentally gotten delivered to their house. We were working the back yard and she came back and sat down and proceeded to say, "What are you gonna do with that shed. It is UG-ly." We lived with it for a while and then one year Joseph painted it, but it has become more leaky and rodent filled so today is the day we say good-bye. He's also breaking up the picnic table that has rotted out underneath.
We rented this lovely sight (above). I'm sure the neighbors love it, one especially, is probably waiting on pins and needles hoping this means we'll be moving.
That sledge hammer is the best purchase we ever made! Man, that husband of mine can do anything! Good luck with the big cement pad, honey!

Hey, you said you love dirt...and your hubby worked VERY hard to clear you a BE-U-tiful new, clean, level patch of DIRT :o).
ReplyDeleteFrom that tilt that the shed looks like it had (or was it the camera angle...or that I'm looking at this at a hair past midnight???) it's a darned good thing that came down with help...before it fell over. So - whatcha gonna do with the new dirt patch?
Sledgehammer?! I had to rent a jackhammer (Elijah's reported pogo stick) to get the cement out.
ReplyDeleteKudos to Elijah too. He did a great job sticking with it. He worked with me on this project from 7 am to 5 pm. What a trooper!
